302 and 307 had free rides for the full route yesterday due to
MRT breakdown, with the exception of SMB1538U BC who asked all to
tap even at affected stations...
CCK and YewTee was in a havoc...almost all 302, 307 and
925 were packed to the door at CCK INT, and CCK INT had a
terrible jam due to the sudden influx of buses due to MRT shuttle,
buses stopping at the wrong berth (eg TIB1031L on 300 stopped at
the MRT Shuttle berth)...
During PM peak, CCK surrounding main roads started to jam. CCK
Drive towards YewTee totally traffic standstill..all the cars and
buses queueing up as shuttle buses load at YewTee MRT stop..and the
case worsen since Shuttle buses towards CCK and Kranji all had to
pass thru that road...some buses end up have to use roads like CCK
st 52, CCK WAY, CCK North 5, CCK North 6, CCK st 62... KJE entrance
onto CCK Drive also jam...
All 302 and 307 (not sure other buses) had terrible bunching and
frequency and buses were all late, BCs no time to rest but to carry
on next journey...
At CCK, pax were told that shuttle buses will bring them to
Woodlands but end up only till Kranji. Some pax were directed to
board 925..At YewTee, SMRT staff and police were just shouting
away...
Shows the terrible planning on SMRT part...
ya they can keep increasing the bloody fares without fail
everytime but the trains still can breakdown everywhere.. and they
always still dare to justify for their fucking fare hikes
somemore..
