After ten years of waiting, the Circle Line in Singapore opened on Saturday! It is the fourth line and really helps car-less families like ours travel around the island. Last night there was a big celebration of the grand opening of the circle line! We enjoyed riding the train and getting off at Holland Village for free beer, doughnuts, a rock concert, and a rooftop, Italian dinner! I wish Toronto could expand its metro. It is so fun taking trains and so clean. Singapore is commencing another line or maybe already working on it. The blue, downtown line. Despite a packed metro system, the roads are also blocked with heavy traffic quite often. But we would rather be squished on a train then in stop-and-go traffic! Keep up the good work, Singapore!
I like how all the metro stations have safety doors which open when the trains' doors open upon arrival. This way, no one can ever accidentally fall onto the tracks. I like this safety feature very much along with the cameras everywhere to ensure passenger security.
