Deckbuild 6th Gear January 29, 2013 Share January 29, 2013 I thought they expand that stretch to ease the congestion for cars heading towards Lornie road blocking up the PIE, but after they open the expanded stretch, they close the 1st and 2nd lane, it's more jam than ever now.... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that they are moving the centre divider so that either side can have more lanes! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's only halfway done. The Tuas-bound direction should be getting it's 4th lane soon (currently the first lane on Changi-bound direction) After it's done should be similar to the stretch along CTE at AMK.

I thought of that initially due to the opp way heading towards BKE need more lanes BUT that side also having additional 2 lanes under construction so it doesn't make sense to me now...

Probably to ease the bottleneck caused by cars entering BKE, we might have a longer and wider lead-in lanes to the BKE, like what we have for the BKE to SLE. So the Tuas-bound direction could have 6 lanes at that stretch? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw some guys working on the centre divider. I guess the old Lane 1 Changi bound would be new Lane 1 for Tuas bound! The reason for jam is our drivers cannot keep onto their lanes when the road is curvy! Becasue of this everyone slows down in this stretch also! Yesterday, AYE Tuas bound, JT Road exit: I was on the Lane 1 at the traffic light behind a lorry to take a right turn. On Lane 2, there was a car (taking right also). I was following the dotted guide lines diligently while taking turn. The lorry in my front over-steered and went out of my lane and the car on the left already cut me and was almost in my front during turn. While we were touching the Town Hall Road, car went back to its lane and lorry sped up and came back to my lane. Since I know these jokers, I was accommodating them nicely!

Becasue of this everyone slows down in this stretch also! indeed! plus the fact that most drivers like to switch lanes abruptly for small gains and caused vehicles behind to slam brakes and slow down..causing a ripple effect chain reaction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darthrevan Supercharged January 29, 2013 Share January 29, 2013 Sorry but they didn't fix the fu.cking problem exiting to Lornie.
