Can I propose to change the Station Name to “Upper East Coast ” which is more appropriate?
Just write letter to LTA
Yes, it is located along Upper East Coast Road, the station name shall follow the road name as well
Yeah but again the ITH will also be renamed as well.
Wonder why there’s so many exits. The station layout is interesting.
