Thought those ERP gantry in Orchard area spoilt liao, so still can switch on again ah?!

But for some roads, even there are ERP in operation, it is still congested. They never admit that ERP doesn't resolve the root cause at all?!

Cause too cheap. Hoot $20 see if traffic drops to a trickle or not. 😂

then cost for everyone goes up. Baby bonus will need to be $200k. $88M for GCB will be like peanuts!

Schools all start at the same time. Office workers start work at the same time. 

Why not LTA staff start work at 6 am? Other gahmen workers 7am? Another shift 11 to 7pm?
