Revised ERP rates along CTE next week

By Jeffrey Oon | Fit to Post Autos – Mon, Apr 30, 2012

First, the good news for car owners living in the north and using the Central Expressway (CTE).

From next Monday, electronic road-pricing charges for cars going south-bound before the Braddell gantry towards the direction of town will not have to pay a single cent during the morning peak period (down from 50 cents today).

Motorists using the PIE slip road into CTE between 730am and 8am will pay 50 cents less -- at S$3.00.

Here's the bad news: ERP rates for the four gantries along the southbound CTE after Braddell Road will go up to S$2 between 730 - 830am. That's 50 cents more than today's rates.

Between 8am- 830am, the new rate will be S$3, a full dollar more.

The new rates were announced as part of the quarterly review of ERP charges. All other rates remain unchanged.

    Singaporean director Anthony Chen described as “surreal” the 15-minute standing ovation that followed the world premiere of his debut feature film "Ilo Ilo" at the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday. Though the ending of the premiere couldn’t have been more perfect, the 29-year-old Chen said the beginning was quite “nerve-wrecking” as it was marred by technical glitches.
