i don't think the bus route is that long. a few KM there and
here. it about serving the people in the new town where leak of
service some part of the area where is demand. people no need to
change service also at the same time help out another service 139.
163 can skip the toa payoh interchange like 57 after contiune the
old route to seng keng interchange from there out the interchange
follow service 50 to punggol. this way the sengkang interchage
should have some space for one new service. if u say the route is
long how about service 88?
Actually... there is scope to introduce one more trunk
service... like sv 164
My suggestion:
Punggol Interchange >> Punggol Central >> Punggol
West >> Punggol Field >> Punggol Road >> Sengkang
East Way >> Sengkang West Way >> Jalan Kayu >>
YCK Road >> CTE >> AMK Ave 3 >> AMK Ave 6
>> AMK Ave 1 >> Bishan Road >> Bradell Road
>> CTE >> Balestier Road >> Jalan Rajah >>
St Michael's Terminal
** Provides MRT connection to Sengkang East/West Way & HDBs
close to Jalan Kayu
** Provides rapid connection to AMK MRT via CTE for Punggol and
Sengkang residents
** Connects AMK Ave 1 to Bishan MRT (CCL) and provides
alternative connection to Bradell bus park industrial area apart
from sv 13
** Connects Whompoa/Jalan Bahagia area to north via rapid
connection through CTE
** Routed to terminate at St Michael's via Jalan Rajah so that
it covers maximum part of Balestier Road
