Route Suggestions (Part 6)

Hi mr pathlight, there is northeast MRT line. Cheers.Or Service 47: Joo Koon > Sengkang

SBS 9256 X SG

I would prefer 811P to perform the full route then having to perform 1 part of the routes. And the traffic flows at Ave 6 always jam up causing 811 to bunch up.

There will be route amending to Toa Payoh Interchange for Svc 860 in 2016.

Why amended to Toa Payoh of all places? I think even the current route is fine with me...

Svc 811P only serve portion of the route becoz of the waiting time and residents complain about the bus service being slow but ended up bunching one another.

Pros:

SBS9252G SG

SBS 9256 X SG

Extending Svc 860 would result a few things I presume:

1) Longer waiting time - Travel time will be longer eventhough it is convenient
2) Heavy loading - By the time, the bus reach Upp Thomson Road during PM peak, the bus already have a heavy loading. If you have taken 169, just maybe see to the point of it. Maybe it is good, maybe it is not. Just a piece from me.

Retain the current service and then we will see till Springleaf MRT Stn is fully constructed... There should be a new service...

Hi mr marvel68, I think definitely need introduce. There is projected growth for such a service with HDB flats blooming! Cheers. Thanks.

860A and 860 downroutes can operate as supplement trips during high demand timings. with the suggested extension, 860 should get a few DDs to cope with demand at Tagore Ind Est

Becoz this is what I hear from a resident in Yishun that ask the BC weather Svc 860 will be extend or not and the BC told her that it will be extend to Toa Payoh in near future which maybe in 2016.

One candidate for the Sungei Seletar Package!!! Hahahs...

I DOUBT.

Haha,Extend another 5 km is good enough.

Some random service for the future:

SMRT Service 844: WLDP - Yio Chu Kang Int

AJQZC SG

Possible future extension to service 102, version 2:

Provides the connection in the north to Bt Panjang. As the NE interchanges obviously don't have any much space to introduce new services ... I'll have to make do with an existing one.

Hi mr AJQZC, good if it happens because there is currently no connection to north west of singapore from northeast. Furthest we have is sengkang to Clementi in the form of sbs 156. Clementi is counted as west. However, we all know northeast area NEL mrt is aided very much by 2 lines (namely circle line and soon-to-be downtown line). This invalidates the above route suggestion for extended sbs 102). Although you are right on the limited spacing at present NEL bus interchanges, but plans are already being made. Sengkang, Hougang, punggol bus interchanges will be expanded and they are already out in the news for quite some time. There will also be a new buangkok bus interchange in 2019 according to the plans listed in GE2015. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi mr SBS9252G, the proposed sbs 110 duplicates sbs 50 intention for punggol, sengkang connection to ang mo kio and bishan although the route is not the same. Cheers. Thanks.

No point introducing YET another service (duplications, plus Punggol Int space constraints) ... if you need, you can always consider extending / modifiying 85 or 117 in some way.

Future Tuas interchange route enhancement possibilities:

I made some derivations to the routes based on jurongresident's map, and my version is here (using colour scheme from Joo Koon Int flyers & posters):

https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zEEpmI3uw7s8.kTfxSyHlmlJU&usp=sharing

Mainly involves route swaps between 182 & 256 (extension to Bt Batok tentative), and 192 & 254. 259 is tentative. No changes to 193.

Sadly your 192 does not link to Gul Circle MRT.

It does, though only in proximity and not directly.

The point of the route change is to improve the MRT link to the sectors that the current 254 serves. Currently, 254's route doesn't serve any MRT station between Joo Koon and Tuas Crescent.
