Anyone knows the reason why the initial planning is lifts do not stop at every floor ?

I am referring to those existing lift shafts which was built together with the HDB flats, they were built from ground floor all the way to the top, but only will stop at certain floors and not every floor. What made HDB decide not to have the lifts to stop at every floor back then ?

Too expensive?

Cut costs.

Cut cost & pass the savings to HDB lessors at public housing price, like $8k to $10k per 3 room flat.

cos despite the glorifying and god like status of lky and his lackeys

they lack the foresight to see how we will end up an aging nation

but when u all say "cut cost" or "cost"

isnt it just cut an opening on every floor so that the lift can stop and open door on every floor ?

or u all mean having the lift stopping at 3 floors (for eg. ground, 6th, 11th) is somehow cheaper than having it stopping on every floor ?

i dun get it. whats the logic behind ?

We won' get their logic

Look at this Pasir Ris case. HDB fuked up and expect residents to pay for their mistake

From the beginning, should either not build until 12 levels or make it free for residents when they retro fit the lift. Oh, and should make it both lifts stop at level 12 instead of just only 1 out of the 2

The cost behind programming the lift to stop at every floor plus lift landing. Just moi guess.
