Going somewhere?
Try gothere.sg -- an innovative online map developed for Singapore.
Get directions going from one place to another via car, bus, mrt, taxi or a combination of public transportation. It also gives the approximate distance, time & fare, together with ERPs and peak hour surcharges. What's more, it also has a street view to let you glimpse exactly what to see and expect! The interface is slick and very user-friendly. Go and try lah, can?
I find the GOTHERE website very helpful ... but sometimes can be way off track and you end up quite a way from your desired destination oir it takes you the 'long way' around.
