The map shows changes to sv 35, 43, 48 and 229 in the Bedok /
TNM area.
229 - route change via UEC to Bedok South road. Deleted Chai
Chee route to provide faster connectivity to Bedok South Rd and
South Ave 3 residents. Also provides direct connection for UEC
residents to Bedok MRT. Missing link on Bedok South road covered by
sv 38. Missing link on Chai Chee covered by sv 35 (route modified
in the map as well).
43 / 48 - route swap. Heavy load at Tanah Merah MRT for
residents along UEC and Bedok South Ave 3 not catered well by SDs.
The DDs on 43 that go empty from UEC Terminal until Marine Parade
can be well utilized. Route swap. Also included Tanah Merah Kerchil
Ave on route to Bedok North Depot with new bus stops to provide
better connectivity along Tanah Merah Kerchill. Missing link on
Bedok Road covered by sv 2, 9 and 10.
Let me know your thoughts. Cheers.
The main purpose for service 35 is to provide a link from Tanah
Merah Ferry Terminal to Tanah Merah MRT and vice versa, the estate
area should be better served by feeders. Plus, Upper East Coast
Road is already well connected by bus services, and it is better to
keep 229 plying the whole Bedok South Road.
