摘要
This paper shares some experiences of developing a good metro network in Singapore. After providing a background of the local land transportation scene, the paper provides a chronological discussion of the metro development in Singapore where the characteristics of each new metro line was briefly discussed. The next part of the paper shares some features and initiatives through developing the Singapore metro system over the years, such as funding arrangement, bringing artworks to transit stations, integrated planning between road and rail, integration between transit facilities with non-transit developments, barrier-free accessibility and improving connectivity to the metro stations, and transforming transport nodes into lifestyle hubs. Finally, the paper concludes by discussing the challenges on the land transport system in Singapore and the way forward.
