    I can relate it for him since I worked in the field before, it's about the same as a lying inside a shell scrape on a hot night but humidity x10

    Been living around here all my life and I have to say this mrt really took a long time to build, esp with the pandemic going on. A lot of local businesses closed down because the construction blocked them from view :( and the pandemic accelerated that too
    Sighs, and also this means upper thomson will be more busy because we are filled with cafes, so there will be a lot of ppl coming here 🙃
    Despite all of this, I am pretty excited because it will mean easier transportation for me ^^ I loved seeing the whole process and I'm looking forward to its opening!

    When the station is open, Thomson Plaza will be crowded than before

    • @Aetolus
      @Aetolus 2 роки тому +4

      Give and take
      Property prices in immediate vicinity of the area will go up = Owners happy
      More convenient for people to just go Upper Thomson = Businesses happy
      No need pay for shuttle = Thomson Plaza management happy
      Uptake in crowd = Dirty massage parlours unhappy but everyone else happy
      There's more pros than cons, access to better food is nice but rent increment from becoming a popular area will eventually push businesses away and eventually it'll be filled with shitty big corporate chain food shops.
