After 2.5 years post
introduction, loading during peak hours continues to be low. 27/28
pax peak loading. I evaluate the service looking at loading along
Serangoon North as this is the unique sector. Loading remains below
25 pax.
sv 116 needs some re-routing
to make it more usable. It would be great if it can ply Serangoon
North Ave 1. This way residents along North ave 1 who have only 315
as an option, will get a faster alternative to
MRT
sv 72 is still the preferred
option. I saw at HG Ave 9, there was a 72 DD right behind 116.
People for some reason preferred to choose the bus at back (or they
are going further than HG MRT).
array, sbs7557r and
proudtobeme - since you seem to have some interest in loading
analysis, can you take 116 in peak hours and do the analysis. Not
sure if I always find an unlucky empty 116. I expect the loading
along serangoon north to be much higher.
i no live in houg area. i live tamp. i go study west. i can go
on weekend but will not serve purpose. you want me look at loading
for any east or west svc let me knw.
