 | | For the benefit of those who are less familiar, these stations were completed along with the rest of the line, but have their opening set on later dates as they were built in relatively undeveloped surroundings. |
 | | Therefore, it is generally unlikely that these Stations would be deemed out of date by the time they are opened for revenue service as regardless of whether the machines in these Stations were installed 5 years ago or 5 years later, they would still be using the same system. |
 | | In addition to the reasons that had been stated earlier, personally, I would rather Stations be built ahead of time (around a maximum of 5 years) while the surroundings are still relatively undeveloped rather than when they are fully developed which would then result in high noise and air pollution during the period of construction. |
