Thank you for your reply! My husband is planning to get a scooter to use it to go to work. Is that a better option than taking the MRT?Barnsley wrote:City Lights definately has 1 bed appts.
My friend was paying around 3k for a one bedroom.
Its right next to Lavendar MRT so your commuting should be no problem.
NUS.might be a different matter though.
Is your husband a skilled rider? Singapore is a fine place to ride in IF you are an experienced rider, a proficient motorcyclist. Otherwise, I have seen countless small scooters, owned by expats, with scratches all down the side from being down on the tarmac. If he is just starting out, then I'd get a lot of practice on Sundays, and in places where traffic is not heavy. Rush hour Singapore is not a good place to learn.ve_blur wrote:Thank you for your reply! My husband is planning to get a scooter to use it to go to work.

Thank you! I'll definitely let him know. He does ride his regular bike everyday to work here, but the traffic is not bad here!Strong Eagle wrote:Is your husband a skilled rider?

Perfect example: The more expensive the car, the less likely they will honor the pedestrian zebra crossings at left turn lanes. If they do, they'll stop 2 meters in to it, pretty much defeating the point.x9200 wrote:It is more about taking wrong assumptions. At first when he seas the traffic he may think it is like in any Western country, but it is not. He has to learn some specific patterns and be prepared that drivers/riders here do not necessary obey to the traffic rules or use common sense.
NUS sits between two highways and especially for someone considering commuting with the motorbike it is rather conveniently situated. The only problem with NUS is the traffic at the AYE exit near NUH (and within NUS itself), still pretty transparent if somebody rides to/from work.janiceliu88 wrote:NUS is kind of out of the way - if you don't live in the West (or close to it) it can be a bit of a pain to get to.
