[Today] More, improved train arrival monitors at older MRT stations

Train arrival monitors have long drawn complaints from commuters at the older MRT stations. As the rail network becomes more comprehensive and also more complex, it is important that they be improved, especially when more commuters take the train.
More attention should be paid to improve the displays, and there should be at least two or three such monitors put up at the platforms.
The font size and colour should be enhanced to make them bigger and brighter to stand out from the background. And, at present, it can be quite difficult for people to read what is on the train arrival monitors as only one is installed near each end of the stations. MRT commuters would like to see more of such monitors installed in both old and new stations.
