last SG · 2013-03-05T16:23:18+00:00

this service should help to clear service 31 crowded ITE students and also bad news for short trip taxi driver and PTE premium bus service

What bout the new svc to Changi business Park?No 1?

lemon1974 SG

The route looks good but would there be any demand during the off-peak hours? Somemore the last bus timing is 11.30 pm, would there be any passengers getting to/fro Changi North Industrial Estate? Perhaps the last bus timing can be adjusted to 7.30 pm like Svc 37, or say 9.30 pm instead. Any later and it probably is a waste of taxpayers' money ...

demand is for Tampines Ave 7 and Flora Rd residents. There might be ppl working night shift in the industrial area as well.

At a later date, might introduce SWT 4A after 7.30 pm until Changi Prison for Flora road passengers with may be only 3 buses and frequency of 18-20 mins.

frequency off peak is 15 mins....

Dont think it will be #1. It could be either #20 or in the 40 series. Dont remember if it does Tanah Merah. if yes, then 46 or 47 could be a good number. If it is from Tampines Int, most likely it will be 20.

Sv 4 should be to Tampines St 41 and Ave 9 towards at Changi North Rd alike 28,29 and 293..It has many bus service 8,18,37,38 and 81 along Ave 7 from Interchange..

It has not been introduced for Tampines Ave 7 people. It is for Flora Road and Changi North. This will unecessarily increase travel time for passengers. 18 can be diverted to st 41, Ave 9. Who cares? It is already quite a redundant service with pathetic frequency.

SMB128B SG

47 will be good, go along with 37. But if number 47 is granted I would prefer it to start from UEC... Although highly doubtful.

SBS Transit Service 4 is actually a delicated bus service to serve residents in the Flora Road/Drive estate. There are about 9 large condominium projects around the area, with 3 more under construction. And also a single condominium at Tanah Merah Besar Road.

The following condominiums are; Azalea Park, Ballota Park, Carissa Park, Dahlia Park, Edelweiss Park, Ferraria Park, The Gale, Hedges Park (U/C), Avila park, Estella Park, Palm Isles (U/C), Parc Olympia (U/C) and Compass Green.

Concurrently, a ComfortDelgro Shuttle Bus service is available for Flora Road/Drive Residents, however, it cost $1.30 per trip. Its too expensive for a bus service. With the help of East Coast GRC MP, SBST 4 is inaugurated.

Changi North has also plenty of Industrial Companies, those mainly in the Aerospace Trade. Service 37 deals with the south end of Changi North. However, the northern end has no other bus services due to its restricted road space before 2010. Until recently then Changi North Way is extended to Tanah Merah Besar Road.

For planespotters, Tanah Merah Besar Road (End) offers a clear view of the Runway (02L/20R), snap your pictures away!

I think for a start 7 Citaros will be good.

SBS 9631X SG

Are they still low-lying trees around that area though of Flora Road?

47 will be good, go along with 37. But if number 47 is granted I would prefer it to start from UEC... Although highly doubtful.

I would have combined Changi North and CBP services with service # 47. The route I propose would be:

Tampines Interchange --> Tampines Ave 7 --> Flora road --> Upper Changi Road North --> Tanah Merah Besar Road --> Changi North Way --> Changi North St 1 --> Upper Changi Road North --> PIE --> Simei Road --> Simei St 1 --> Simei St 3 --> Simei Road --> Somapah Road --> Changi Business Park Vista --> Changi Business Park Central 2 --> Changi South Ave 3 --> Ave 4 --> Ave 2 --> Ave 1 --> Xilin Ave --> Upper Changi Road East --> Tanah Merah MRT --> Bedok South Ave 3 --> Bedok South Road --> Bedok South Ave 3 --> BACK to Tampines Interchange

-- This route would connect Tampines to Flora road, Changi North

-- Provide link between Simei and Changi North as well as Changi Business Park

-- Provide connections between Changi Business Park & ITE to Tanah Merah

-- Provide link to neglected Bedok South Road HDBs that do not have a direct connection to MRT (unless you go the long route by 229).

There are no low-lying trees. However, the junction of Changi North Way and Tanah Merah Besar Road is very tight, the bus most likely have to manuver out of the road onto the grass verge.

6 should be enough la..

carbikebus SG

6 if there's couple of Wrights.3 Am/Pm 3 Splitters

carbikebus SG

Wonder when will Sembawang have a new basic svc like this using less than 6-7 buses?

Onto the grass verge? that does seem very tight. hmm. I still think Citaros would fit better, it doesn't quite justify Wrights? Perhaps only 1 to 2 Wrights I guess if any, but seems like the fleet would be majority Citaros.

TIB 501 D SG

If there really is a turning restriction, the most it'll get 7-8 Citaros...

-- This route would connect Tampines to Flora road, Changi North

-- Provide link to neglected Bedok South Road HDBs that do not have a direct connection to MRT (unless you go the long route by 229).

Would rather it the other way round. Terminate BNDEP/UEC through CBP to Tampines and loop back.
