To clear confusions:
1. 117 runtime will not be affected as timetable will be
tightened after amendment
2. 103 currently faces bus after bus of fully packed buses. how
is that enough?
3. 102 East Camp possibly abolished, wait for more
development
4. main objective of 117 is not to bring Punggol residents to
Yishun, but to connect Punggol to Seletar Aerospace Park and the
residents of Yishun Ave 1 to Khatib MRT
My comments on your points (just for healthy discussion).
To
clear confusions:
1. 117
runtime will not be affected as timetable will be tightened after
amendment (This is good move. I personally took bus
yesterday and bus speed is slow. There is no traffic enroute 117
route and it can be completed faster. Maybe adding West Camp will
give better loading to 117)
2. 103
currently faces bus after bus of fully packed buses. how is that
enough? (Add more DDs to 103)
3. 102
East Camp possibly abolished, wait for more development
(Makes sense because I could hardly see any development in
East Camp area. With DD first seat I got whole view).
4.
main objective of 117 is not to bring Punggol residents to Yishun,
but to connect Punggol to Seletar Aerospace Park and the residents
of Yishun Ave 1 to Khatib MRT (But developments are still
under way, so from what I saw most was Yishun-Punggol and very few
people boarded/alighted along Ave 1 or SAP. Also note my timing was
PM peak, it was not an off-peak timing).
