Saw a very new looking Citaro doing what appeared to be a
familiarisation route. Saw EDS carrying SBS Transit logo. Inside,
an SBS employee was explaining to BC. Couldn't get reg. Was turning
from Upp East Coast Rd to Siglap Rd towards Marine Parade Rd. If it
is indeed a familiarisation route, it seems clear what this new 150
might be and why there were earlier speculations of a 13
amendment.
13 may be amended to terminate at Eunos. Separate service to do
Eunos > Still Rd > Still Rd South > Marine Parade/Marine
Cres/Marine Parade> Siglap Rd > Upp East Coast Rd > Bedok
South Av 1 > Bedok South Rd > New Upp Changi Rd > Chai
Chee Dr > Chai Chee St > Bedok North Av 1 (loop)
Possible considering UEC to Marine Parade is already well served
by 43 & 48.
But I cannot vouch for this, though the route above will be
quite well-recieved given recent BTO developments in Chai Chee, and
may provide more reliable service between Marine Terrace/Cres and
Geylang Serai due to shorter route.
If 13 is amended it will cause quite some inconvenience as it is
one of the only services from Marine Parade/Marine Terrace to
Geylang Serai. In that case new service will have to originate at
Sims Place to cover this missing link and cannot start from
Eunos.
