As a result of these improvements, our transport
links are, broadly speaking, adequate in meeting the present
demand. Where there is pressure for immediate provision of facilities, interim measures have been adopted to provide
short-term relief whilst expansion plans are being actively pursued. Long-term development plans are also being examined under the Second Comprehensive Transport (CTS) and the Port
and Airport Development Strategy (PADS) Studies.
