It was announced back in August that the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) service will be starting on 12 December, with ticket sales starting sometime in November. Today, at the Transport Expo Asia – which also saw the launch of the ALS RoboVan – Transport Minister Anthony Loke also announced that there will be a 30% discount for all economy-class tickets for the first month of the rail service’s operation.
NST cites the minister as saying, “in conjunction with the opening of ECRL, a 30% discount will be given to the public for all economy tickets for one month, beginning from the start of operations”. That being said, this discount is only for passengers who are not eligible for special fares.
