From 1st November, LTA is going to screw morning drivers. Some ERP rates jumped 400% and others jumped 500%! OK lor since ERP gantries are up already might as well charge charge charge. What is different this time is that usually they increase some gantries, decrease some gantries so that there is some sense of trade-off for drivers. This time, it is increase all the way! Mofo. Next time, they would increase the tolls on the other ERPs too! Greedy mofo.
Morning peak hour ERP rates to be increased at 6 gantries
SINGAPORE - The Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) rates for six gantries leading to the CTE and ECP will be revised from Nov 5.
Four of the affected gantries are located on the southbound CTE after Braddell Road. From 7.30am to 8.00am, the ERP charge will go up by S$1 to S$4.
Two other affected gantries are located at Fort Road leading to the ECP and the KPE slip road onto the ECP. From 8.30am to 9am, the ERP charge will go up by S$1 to S$5.
The rates for the other gantries remain unchanged.
The Land Transport Authority announced the rate revision after completing its quarterly review of traffic conditions on ERP-priced roads and expressways.
Actually, it is going up BY $1, not going up FROM $1. But it is still really ridiculous.
