Transcript
102 Ms K Thanaletchimi asked the Minister for Transport whether there are measures in place to ease congestion and allow for smoother traffic at the KPE as the morning traffic is very heavy due to the bottleneck created by queues of cars exiting to Airport Road.
Mr Khaw Boon Wan: The Land Transport Authority will adjust traffic light timings at some of the junctions along Airport Road to help ease the congestion at this exit. We have increased the capacity of the Mass Rapid Transit North-East Line and also introduced more bus services in the northeast, and would encourage motorists to switch to public transport.
