There will be a lot of people driving on the main road because there is no need to pay for the road price.The traffic flow will increase a lot as everyone will want to use the main road instead of choosing an alternative route to avoid the ERP. Less people will travel by public transport. More people will travel by cars or motorcycles which will cause air pollution.
However, the cost of living will decrease as drivers don't need to pay for high amount of ERP.
What will happen if Enhancing Accessibility is not in place?
It will be very troublesome for the elderly, physically disabled and the blind to travel using public transport. The elderly and physically disabled need special facilities like lifts to travel in the Mrt station. Without the tactile guidance system, the blind have to rely on other people's help. They will not be able to travel independently. If they cannot travel by public transport, it will be hard for them to visit doctor thus worsening their conditions.
