District 19 is now seond-most popular!

.
At least in 2010 anyway, as reported in the ST today.

The perennial issue that the wife and I have with District 19, especially new condo developments located in Lorong Chuan, Hougang and Serangoon, is the traffic condition along the CTE. Not only is traffic heavy on this expressway, the jams (in our opinion) is also the most unpredicable amongst all the expressways.

One can always argue that you can make use of the peripheral roads to get around, but the CTE is still the shortest link for those heading to the CBD and City area. And with the impending construction of the North-South Expressway and once these new projects start to TOP, we expect the traffic situation along the CTE to be even worse...

Agree CTE is painful (and expensive) during peak hours. But there're alternatives to get to Hougang/Serangoon (where I live): Farrer/Braddell Road & KPE. All said, it's a developed area with good eateries, shopping centres and amenities.
