While waiting for bus service 700A, this STOMPer noticed that all the timings of the buses on the electronic board were inaccurate. He wonders why LTA would invest so much money on a system that doesn't work.
He says:
"This photo was taken outside Mandarin hotel at Orchard Road.
"LTA invested so much money to build this electronic bus system, with the purpose of ensuring a more efficient bus service.
"But it's always faulty.
"I actually stood there while waiting for my bus, 700A, and noticed that the board will show a bus is arriving in 10 minutes when the bus is at the bus stop.
"Or in my case, it stated that bus 700A will arrive in 57 minutes, but I only waited about 10 minutes.
"I'm just wondering, why would the authority want to spend so much money on a system that doesn't work?"
