CNA938 spoke with SMU Assistant Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship (Education) Terence Fan on the potential impact of the RTS Link. He expects a shift from private vehicles to the train, as commuters find it more convenient. The RTS Link may also attract new travellers who don't typically cross the Causeway. On pricing, Asst Prof Fan noted it will likely start low to encourage adoption, with adjustments based on demand. He added that the RTS is designed for regular commuters, marking a significant improvement over older rail system.
