When we were in Singapore, to get most places we used the MRT or buses. The MRT stands for Mass Rapid Transport. You can also call it the Underground or Subway.
There are 5 lines; Downtown line, East West line, North south line, North East Line, and Circle line. There were stations everywhere. The MRT trains are driverless. I got to stand at the front and look out of the front window. Which I soon found out we were not allowed to do.
I would the map very easy to follow. I also found it easy to get in and out with my card and the trip prices were cheap. At times I had to correct Mum and Dad before we got on the wrong train!
In Singapore there are also buses. There are single storey buses and double decker buses. There are so many more buses than trains but you have to wait a little bit longer for them. One of the bus rides cost us 9 cents! The buses are cheaper than the trains.
The LRTs and monorails are at the end of the MRT, airports and there is a monorail around Sentosa. We didn’t go on them that much because we didn’t really go to the areas that they were. The ones that we did go on were the one at Bukit Panjang, monorail all t Sentosa and the LRT at Changi Airport.
As well as all of this we used Taxis. These are not public transport but still run by the government.
