that's good, nowadays too many units crammed into too little land....hard to find decent condos with breathable spaceOriginally Posted by Pro888
even ECs are following the trend, smaller sizes (900 sq ft for 3BR) and more units per unit land

For Trilliant IMO, the layout was totally a turn off. Price is on the high side. Overcrowding. Plenty of land nearer to the malls to name a few.
Indeed this surprised me. Nowadays, developers will build abt 10 - 20% more units than govt estimates. This EC is about 10% less units. Expect bigger size, bigger swimming pool etc. Will be launching in 2 months time.Originally Posted by mantrix
Hope with more development near by, LTA can consider to buid NS12 MRT station asap and the opposite industrial este develop into business park , like JE. hope my dream can come true.

Another future station will be at Sungei Kadut. One new road is currently under construction and directly opposite, a factory space has been acquired & demolished along the line. Now only with grass field.
I speculate again that both stations will be tender out together to one successful bidder.
Better to have a highway than a mrt to sungei kadut.

Nice to hear from you, The peoples along Ave 7, HDB Chang Phang Rise, YS ,YE and industrial waiting for MRT station very long already. I think coming soon, but dont knw the exact yr. Hope LTA can pay more attention to that area. make it convinience to every one.Originally Posted by Pro888
jz jogging there this early morning.. if the canberra/simpang MRT station is to be built, the platform will be on outer side of tracks, rather than the platform in the between tracks. This is due to the tracks stretched from Yishun to Sembawang are built side by side rather than a gap in between for future platfromOriginally Posted by Nman
but sadly those areas are still covered by forest mostly.. as said earlier.. will not realize in 5 years time...
Just like Dover stn.Originally Posted by xemz127
As you said, currently clearing of forest is progress.
No matter how difficult, when the population there increase, LTA have to think a way to solve the problem, Sembawang and Yishun MRT now a day very pack during wk hour. I think future N12 can reduce the crowd at N11 and N13. hope it happen soon.Originally Posted by xemz127
I think the MRT will be announced just before the next GE, to solidify KBW's position in Nee Soon GRC.
Hope so, which mean move in 2 year later MRT ready for resdnt.Originally Posted by solsys
since when KBW is in nee soon GRC?? he is in SBW GRC leh...Originally Posted by solsys
but the speculated new MRT is under his ward lah
clear liao forest also can be loooooong time to announce the development.. i think gov really wana spend $$$$ in pg and sk first until it's successful..Originally Posted by Pro888
If talking abt GE, it will be better to have something in Sembawang Ctrl instead. Can win more votes since Sun Plaza isOriginally Posted by solsys
LTA wldn't build road and then leave it there w/o any development for long, to ease traffic?? No no.Originally Posted by xemz127
It is not in the high gear like building BTO flats. Clearing of anything takes only few months.
clearing because they would like to prepare the GLS.. hmm.. let's say they are able to clear the lands by end of 2012.. GLS by 2013 for all the remaining parcels.. all bidders launch project in 2014.. TOP by 2016/7.. so at least another 5 years to see the changes for the canberra area..Originally Posted by Pro888
unless the future canberra/simpang MRT is announced in 2014.. else.. expect at least 2020 ba .. also need some BTO to be announced at the residential area + business plot on the other side.. else LTA will say it has not reached enough critical mass to have one MRT station there
Infact Govt should get ready NS12 MRT before many of the residential side TOp coming 2014/2015. I notice that some of the circle line MRT Station not many passenger , but they still build the station there. NS 12 near by have many housing already, It on hold 10yr++ since NS line operated, Look like no body care, Complaint to MP, etc. So that it may hold for anothe 10yr. i think must alert authotities, otherwise no action taken. wait and wait again , with MRT Station there those who stay near the Ave 7 HDB/ landed house/ PC(YS and YE) / industrial employee / can use the facility by walking distance rather then all squee at Yishun MRT station. To LTA , if they want to build MRT station like Dover not difficult, I think less then a year, Operating cost to gov or big organisation small matter lah. Depend on they want / dun want. Just remeber as a service and convinience to resident nearby.Originally Posted by xemz127
Now already so crowded, esp. when it rains. Can't imagine when the BTO flats, EC & PC are ready in few years time.
Do not wish to see another Tampines
agreed.. i don't believe the circle line stations have the critical mass to justify.. many stations on this line also open to nobody's land.. the only reason i can think of is because this circle line is in CCR.. every big investment is put into the CCR to make it nicer .. forget about the basic rules of providing convenience to residence nearby..Originally Posted by Nman
I do wish like all others who live nearby, that the new NS12 should have a concrete plan/date to build.. but from the current condition nearby.. it's still a NO-NO from LTA..
i think LTA will build the NS12 if the yishun/sembawang is like Jurong East station.. pack like sardine every morning and evening haha!Originally Posted by Pro888
Fully agreed with you, simple station pending for so long, unless that place totally no body stay... Dun know what their future plan..Originally Posted by xemz127
Sad, by that time too late liao and no quality life, Hope they do something asap. i do believe PAP action very fast, but look like they fail in this area.. If still wait can wait for another 5 to 10yr..Originally Posted by xemz127
Just build simple / chaeper station for loading and unloading passengers will do. all the people stay near by very happy already , because I worried concrete plan take too long time .Originally Posted by xemz127
I think the residents of YS and YE have endured this pain for such a long time... they seem to be the first batch waiting for the NS12 to be realized.. I don't believe there are not .....Originally Posted by Nman
now that canberra area have 3 PC and 1 EC concurrently.. the LTA should really give the residents there a little bit of hope.. instead of keeping quiet and waiting for that whole area to TOP then only announce the NS12 plan..
anyway i have "speculated" some info on the Nautical thread.. posted some photos there already .. check it out!
Yes I think so. they wait till . my fren told me every of them wait and wait till now. got dream rather then nothing. hope the project very soon infront of our eye...Originally Posted by xemz127
show this forum to the MP KBW ... haha!! see how many frustrated residents in canberra and tekan him do something...Originally Posted by Nman
I think Lim WK is MP there, MP KBW is main incharge. not sure.Originally Posted by xemz127
