This is the fxxking problem with all these clowns. Where was he when the MCE was jammed in the first working day after the opening. People were trapped in the jam for 2~3 hours and no one from MIW comes up to EXPLAIN AND APOLOGISE.
As now the situation has improved, quickly come up from the turtle shell to wayang and claim credit and at the time still continues to blame the motorist.
Since last Saturday till today, I can see LTA put up a full page “Traffic Advisory for Motorist” information on this MCE on both My paper and Today newspaper everyday.Probably also on the MSM.If this has been done much earlier before the opening of the MCE I am sure the situation will not be that bad. Blaming the motorist for not being familiar with the MCE is the worst excuse the LTA can come up with.
Before the MCE was officially opened to the public, who will know the inside out of the entrances and exits leading to various locations and some of the changes except those “dumb” engineers and executives of LTA involved in this project.
The situation now has improved not because of people getting familiar with it but because many have avoided it (who will want to be caught in the situation again) by taking public transport, using other roads, change the timing, etc.
Also if they have not expanded the Central Boulevard from two lanes to four lanes, the situation may not have improved much.
This is also another fxxking problem LTA had overlooked and did not fully understand the traffic flow. Likely they have not even done any survey to ascertain this. Only after the BIG boo boo then they started to do patching work by adding two more lanes.
Now can the motorist claim from LTA for the mistakes made here by them.
1. Those involved in traffic accidents within the MCE including the entrances and exits in the first day – Repair cost
2. Those who have to pay for the extra ERP charges and Taxi fares owing to the chaos – difference in the amount
3. Those who were late for work and on hourly rate – $/h.
