Light Rapid Transit (LRT)
LRTs, another popular mode of transport in Singapore, are shorter trains that zip along connecting lines linking major residential estates. Think of them as the faster alternative to buses, for there is no need to stop at traffic lights or pedestrian crossings on the LRT!
Residents in Bukit Panjang or Choa Chu Kang use the Bukit Panjang LRT to connect to the main MRT line or travel to other parts of the neighbourhood. All stations on the Sengkang LRT and Punggol LRT lines are within walking distance of most apartment blocks in the Sengkang and Punggol New Town areas. Both lines also provide a seamless transfer to the North-East Line.
