Do you know that work-from-home is the default working mode now?

IKR, if you’ve been on the road during peak hours, or head to any office building, you’d wonder if you’ve been living in an alternate universe.

But fret not; with the school holidays, traffic is going to get a tad better.

At least, according to LTA, given that they’ve completed its review of Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) rates for the December 2021 school holidays, and some gantries won’t be turned during certain periods.

ERP Changes from 22 November 2021

AYE after Jurong Town Hall towards City – Set of 3 gantries
8:30am to 9:30am – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free
5:30pm to 6:30pm – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free

Southbound CTE before Braddell Road
7:00am to 8:00am – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free
8:00am to 9:30am – Reduce by $1, so it’ll still cost $1
9:30am to 10:00am – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free

Southbound CTE after Braddell Road & PIE Slip Road into Southbound CTE – Set of 4 gantries
7:30am to 8:00am – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free
8:00am to 9:30am – Reduce by $1, so it’ll still cost $1
9:30am to 10:00a – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free

Northbound CTE after PIE – Set of 2 gantries
5:30pm to 6:00pm – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free
6:00pm to 6:30pm – Reduce by $1, so it’ll still cost $2
6:30pm to 7:00pm – Reduce by $1, so it’ll still cost $1

KPE (ECP) after Defu Flyover
8:30am to 9:00am – Reduce by $1 which means it’ll be free

Now, remember: the revised rates will apply from Monday, 22 November 2021 to Monday, 3 January 2022. These rates will revert to the pre-school holiday charges from Tuesday, 4 January 2022 onwards.

By then, I wonder what phase we’d be in.
