There will also be a new bus service for lakeside/jurong east coming in Q3 this year. Speculating that this "new" service will be an extension of 49 to Jurong East int. And Punggol will also get a new service in Q3. Probably the anticipated 164...

The routing via Senja road makes absolute sense. For those from BPJ Interchange can take 922 and there will be no increase in commute time. I highlighted this need few months back saying Senja needs a trunk service, and definitely one more service in addition to 920.

Good to see 972 being diverted via Senja road. 972 DDs already have 80-90 pax when it gets on to PIE. I suspect another 2 BSEP DDs will be added to 972 making it fleet of 17 buses to cater to increased demand. 972 will also be an intra-town within the whole ring road township.

Once DTL2 starts, 972 will also provide good alternative to Senja residents to connect to BPJ MRT. Good move once it happens!!

New Bus Services in Q3:

Why is 102 going to West Camp road? There is not much demand there. It could have looped at Jalan Kayu. I believe it will connect Buangkok MRT to Sengkang West Way BTOs. Another MRT alternative!?!

Or does it go via Buangkok Green to YCK road and then follows 103 to Jalan Kayu.. but that would be too much duplication.

TIB1112L SG

now i know why service 103 is routed to Ave 11.

- A new childcare centre is being built

- A new hawker centre in the area has recently been called for a tender.

Thus, due to development of facilities, service 806's loading will increase and thus they introduced a new service 103 for Ave 11

Joo Koon interchange opening up as part of BSEP?

New Bus Services in Q3:

if it's "diverted", I think I know already. quite likely it's the ones we have already predicted many months ago. still think there will be a few that will remain at Boon Lay leh...

anyway, I guess the new routes may be part of BSEP.

SBS5010P SG

I doubt anyone would take 103 from Serangoon to Yishun. [Would be better off taking 853 or 854, fastest]

However I feel 103's loading will increase from Yishun into Seletar Aerospace Park as commuters will not need to take 858 to transfer at Jalan kayu for 103 then into Seletar Aerospace Park

There are rumours that 103 might be given DDs. I am not sure lol.

If that's the case why 39 not given DDs yet?

TIB 585L SG

Im more worried about the traffic condition inside yishun int when 103 is extended there, it will be another Tampines when 4 and 20 was introduced

So far boon lay int is the worst

Bedok and WRI also

So far boon lay int is the worst

Boon Lay I think the worst section is Jalan Boon Lay (both ends; from RV & from the factories), Boon Lay Way (between Jalan Boon Lay and Jurong Point), Jurong West Central 2 and all the way to the end-on berths. it takes like around ten minutes for the bus to arrive at the bus interchange from the last bus stop.

the factory side of Jalan Boon Lay experiences heavy traffic congestions in the evening on weekdays. this is on top of the around ten minutes I mentioned. imagine spending around half an hour to almost one hour inside the bus just to wait for the bus to get to the bus interchange...

let's not talk about the occassional jams inside the end-on berths.

the other section which is towards the sawtooth berth still can. recently observed the time a bus went from the slip road beside Frontier library to the bus interchange in the morning at around 7am. that time I was on my way to school. timing was around three minutes. if from MRT tracks side I think it's around five minutes.

I think one solution for the end-on berths buses is to re-route the return leg of some routes to return via Jalan Boon Lay and Jurong West Central 3.

Bedok and WRI also

WRI is due to 902. The spam of A22s is more of a concern.

Bedok is too small.
