Hi mr busAnalayser, I never miss any. As per passenger practice,
they will always take the first bus which comes to their
destination. Providing multiple bus services is not a new issue. I
know sbs 27 is crowded. But still, there will still be spaces at
times of the day for people to board.
Sbs 88 to pasir ris drive 3 upper portion. Nothing funny.
Considered new link. The purpose is not to have so many people
alighting at these stops at pasir ris drive 3. One of the most
important objectives of building bus stops at TPE is to further
improve the bus situations for Punggol and sengkang residents. This
is to convenience residents there. They understand that not all
services can go inside and loop at Punggol and sengkang. So it is
much more practical to get services to bypass these 2 estates and
give a bus stop on the outskirts. This should be a win-win
situation right?
Naturally, bus routes which go along the TPE bus stop must stop
at it, right? You cannot possibly plan sbs 27 and sbs 88 to skip
them. Later some other people want sbs 858 not to stop. Then others
want sbs 39 not to stop, saying very crowded. Another guy wants
smrt 969 not to stop, saving Punggol guys can take sbs 34 to
tampines and sengkang guys can take sbs 27. Then another guy says
sbs 89 is very crowded at peak hours in morning. They want faster
journey to loyang industrial estate. In the end, each and every
person do not want their bus service to stop. May as well cancel
off the project. This should really not be the way. Cheers
I have no problem with Sv 27 stopping there... Just that there
will be no place for people to board, and you will see more
complaints than benefit.. If SBST/LTA launch DDs on Sv 27 A just
like you now have Sv 143M overlaying on same route, then it will
take care of the loading problem. This plea has fallen on deaf
years for many years now.
if you don't do that, then in PM peak for sake of Punggol
residents, you will inconvenience Sebgkang/Hougang residents, who
won't be able to board Sv 27 before TPE stops. Those wanting to get
down at Punggol TPE stop will still have 168 option that can
accommodate more pax given it is full fleet dd. Do you see the
issue or not?
