  Its almost impossible to have a MRT running through west coast and south of East West Line. Its impossible and if not, a low-capacity line since its you either run directly underneath EWL and skip some stations OR build through all non-residential areas from Clementi East to Harbourfront. 

   

   

  The only feasible route LTA will build is NTU to somewhere in Clementi West. The rest LTA won't even consider it. Industrial / Private housing from Clementi East to Harbourfront.

  No! I don't think LTA should extend the LCK and Sungei Buloh! Look the Northwestern is so empty and Nature Reserve!

  Yes. I prefer the LRT (Jurong Region LRT Line) Jurong East then terminate at Boon Lay, via Pandan, Teban, Terusan and Yuan Ching.

  It is going to happen within the next decade. The new Science Centre is going to be integrated into the current Chinese Garden Station.

  Hello Dragonaxe. DTL and ERL are also run parraell to East - West line and together 3 lines run together in the East. While the West has only 1 EWL. So i think it's not a problem. West Coast MRT is good, there are many HDB buildings and also there's West Coast Park, many people like to go there fly kites, cycle

  Your map looked very real. Looks like LTA's blueprint. Possible :)

  Science Centre? It's located near Jurong East Interchange
  In future new science centre it's a few steps away from Chinese Garden

  So its feasible in a way. Since Eastern region line pass through Public housing and private housing and HUDC flats, should be feasible. =P. But now the problem is, will LTA approve? LOL
