Hi mr carbikebus

Service 300G/W will be a non BSEP replacement for 300. 300 will be withdrawn with the introduction of 300G/W and 301

That's great news... something I have really hoped for CCK residents to have 300A/B.

carbikebus SG

How will 300A/B be all A22s. What will happen to the bendy fleet on 300?

I am more concerned about 301 and 983... these 2 will be mostly all A22s... but lets first see the route.. if its like 990 then even midi buses are okay :P

When the press release is out then we roughly know..

ButIAmAToilet SG

Or maybe 983 go to both Bukit Panjang and Yew Tee, after Bukit Panjang MRT opens, starts from Bukit Panjang loop at Yew Tee.

Hi mr ButIAmAToilet, news have already said the bus service is for choa Chu kang and it will start from CCK. Not start from bukit Panjang.

Relax. When bukit panjang interchange is restored when MRT is up in later part of the year, its transport will be reviewed and new bus service will come later. But certainly not Q1 2015. Cheers.

carbikebus SG

983 definately from CCK,its brother 985 is there also where BPJ is more to 97x series

all that numbering has gone for a toss... after 41 comes to Jurong East... most funny number...

Yes but 983 cannot be only CCK-Yew Tee... in that case number should have been 30x... just as other feeder/intra-towns... seems like 983 will go beyond either to Sembawang side... or Bukit Batok side..

I am more inclined to say it might loop at Bukit Batok or even loop at Bukit Panjang.

Proposed route can be

CCK Interchange>>CCK Dr>>CCK North 6>>CCK Way>>CCK Ave 4>>CCK Ave 1>>CCK Way>>CCK Road>>Upper Bukit Timah Rd>>Petir Rd>>Jelubu Rd>>Bukit Panjang Rd>>CCK Rd and back...

or similarly can go to Bukit Batok via Gambok if not to BPJ.

Rytz SG

What if Service 983 goes around Yew Tee then to BPJ via KJE Gali Batu Exit? Something like the current BPS1 Service.

TIB987K SG

Discovered new pair of bus stops along the new YIshun Avenue 8 in between Yishun Avenue 1/8 junction and Yishun Dam.

Hi mr TIB987K, yishun Ave 8 and yishun ave 1 widening is to facilitate another route to connect sembawang and yishun and together with seletar west link, it helps to alleviate high traffic along popular Lentor ave and yishun ave 2. Cheers.

Isn't Yishun ave 8 still under construction?

It could be for new service from Punggol to Yishun via Seletar? This is something we have been wishing for quite sometime as it will reduce Punggol - Yishun commute time by half.

Is this stop on Yishun ave 8 or Yishun ave 1?

randomguy10 SG

Haha IMO it would be a good idea to extend 103 to Yishun and make it 2 directional

Regarding Yishun Avenue 8

Completion of new Yishun Avenue 8 linking Yishun Ave 1 and 6, and commissioning of 2 new signalised junctions of Yishun Ave 1/8 and Yishun Ave 6/8

Might be the new Yishun short trunk svc to Jln Kayu?

BusAnalayzer SG

Regarding Yishun Avenue 8

Thanks. Maybe new Punggol-Yishun service or extend 103 to Yishun. Both would be good options.

I have a strong feeling, sooner or later, sv 177 will come under BSEP and operate on full day basis. I saw sv 177 buses have got quite high loading during its designated time. Given Hillview has had many new condos come up yet few bus services, and connectivity along Bukit batok east ave 4 to MRT is poor, makes sense to have 177 run full day.

While making BSEP, I feel LTA should extend sv 177 to BPJ via Dairy Farm/Chestnut Ave (given # of new condos in this area). This will also provide direct connectivity to future DTL2.

Problem is MINDEF side,think its not convienance to open/close gate all the time

Can have 177M that goes into MINDEF only on those particular timings, normal 177 runs full day and can turn right after Hillview Dr to Upper Bukit timah (if extended).

carbikebus SG

177A or B more logical for SMRT,Great to avoid Mindef for 177,Can help svc 176/963

Expecting announcement to come out next week on CCK services.
