I think the scheme is already daytime parking. Funny how they suddenly mention the P&R abuse, seems like it's been going on for ages.

Not sure about the abuse for ezlink card but I use park n ride when I have meeting at novena or kallang by parking at tpy or geylang. Adhoc usage is good at least for me. Pls don't scrape it ! Else I must park at venue and claim from company gao gao.

What's a good park and ride location for someone living in woodlands and working in CBD?

 

I live quite far from the mrt (takes 15-20 minutes to get there) and always no seats. Worst still, SMRT has hired professional mourners/yellers. GET IN GET IN. PLEASE MOVE IN. PLEASE SIR PLEASE.

IMO, what kills P&R is the low real users -- people who park, then ride.

 

There are only 2,000 P&R season holders, and only half of them take MRT after that.

 

Maybe they don't have this data in the past, and now they do.

They just want to collect more money since carpark rates are going up in Dec.

I used to park & ride before taking the bus to CBD.

Most of time, I could not get the season PnR at the carpark at Telok Blangah.

Definitely not under-utilised as the demand is more than supply.

 

 

 

Of course. Since when have our govt been so generous. All the silver support cost money. Now is the time to get it back.

Dec 1 season parking and coupon parking increase, and also P&R scheme discontinued! Looks like they are taking away cheap parking everywhere! Even free parking on sun & PH also getting lesser and lesser.

What about those who use it genuinely but did not buy P&R season ticket?

 

Those they can't possibly track right?
