PaulSmith SG Have anyone of you come across waiting for public bus for 25 min coming to half an hour? I call up and query for the bus frequency. The customer service just replies me that all buses are in high demand at that time and they will take note of my problem. I find that they should cut short the frequency. How can they let passenger to wait for almost half and hour and they keep increasing bus fare.
MohamedF SG Only 25 min…. Got one time I wait for 154 for 35 min at 7.30 pm…. 14 min frequency my foot….
PaulSmith SG that's why have to increase more buses. somemore so many pple waiting and have difficulty getting up the bus.
sbst275 SG For buses it's oftenly affected by traffic conditions Though there are some svs the buses often arrive bef time
MohamedF SG No, what i think they really should do is track the buses and predict when they will arrive…. that way, we can go makan for a while and not miss the bus or get bored to death…
PaulSmith SG cant be everday accident rite...even if accident cant be always affect the same route rite... like that thime, i miss 1 bus and i have to wait for so long at night time after my lesson. it horrible.
sbst275 SG Traffic condition is hard to predict Esp like 154 all these long haul rts, once a bus is delayed usually it's quite difficult to do 'catch up'
FireIce SG some buses come fast but always crowded....... missed 3 x bus 16 yday bcos relli cannot squeeze up driver dun even bother to open the front door.
sbst275 SG You buy a car, you have to bother the loan, road tax and petrol, ar. Talking abt petrol, which talks abt the higher fuel prices
MohamedF SG predict must +/- loh... even the weather station not very accurate... My idea is have check points along several bus stop to track the bus possition, do an average travel time between bus stops, +/- traffic conditions and give a +/- prediction.... We can get the prediction by sms....
sbst275 SG Do you know planning the bus schedule is very problematic?? They have to use the ez-link system that keeps track of the bus movement to revise the schedule? And they usually try to take in the traffic condition + loading condition
