5 new services to be introduced under BSEP before end 2012

last SG · 2012-09-13T21:46:57+00:00

Serangoon to Hougang probably using other routes rather than duplicate 101,They have reason for this.Look at 860 most route also duplicate but see the loadin...

ah-soh SG

According to LTA's Facebook page, 119 will be extended to Punggol Temp Int via Punggol Field and Punggol Way and there will be a new 860 from Yishun Int to Yoshun Ring Road Khatib MRT station via the eastern part of Yishun Ring Road.

Also there will be new services from Punggol to Bishan, Hougang Central to Serangoon and city area to Tampines in which the sv number is still not known yet.

Good introductions according to me.

I am sure people in Punggol West are happy with the introduction as before this there was only 43 that came via Sengkang bridge. 119 has become more of an intra-town service though it goes all the way to Kovan.

It was also high time that Yishun Ring Road received a new service considering the increase in population there.

Let me guess...

Service 50 from Bishan to Punggol via Ang Mo Kio Ave 8, YCK Road, Sengkang West/East Ave, Sengkang East Road. Full AMDEP control.

Service 68 from Tampines to Shenton Way via Bedok and Marina Bay Sands.

For Hougang to Serangoon, likely to use 11x series.

Seriously, Sengkang West anf Fernvale estate need a new trunk service to link to AMK and YCK MRT. Having a service 163/163M is not enough to cope with the growing population in Fernvale.

68 is unlikely to be used...

And yea, Sengkang east deserve more svc. Perhaps a svc by SMRT to the north-west?

bus 163 should start from sengkang to shenton way instead of ended at toa payoh, also sbst should pull 86 to service sengkang west also. i think LTA should extend 57 to punggol, via Ang Mo Kio Ave 8, YCK Road, Sengkang West/East Ave, Sengkang East Road. Full AMDEP control.

119 and 860 lol...

Still remember Tibs introduced service 860 from Sengkang to loop at Hougang St 21 in mid 1998. The current service 119 resembles that 860's route.

Anyway back to topic. For service 119's route extenstion, likely to have fleet add of 2 -3 buses. Hopefully those former service 27's Euro 4 K230UBs come in perm.

57 remain as where it is. I would rather 56 get extended to Punggol instead as the current route is rather short.

Best is a trunk service from Sengkang to Bt Panjang.

i think the route from Bishan to PG, will be via AMK Ave 8/Ave 3 then CTE, Yio Chu Kang Rd, Jalan Kayu, sengkang East/West WAY

from HG to Serangoon , should be using identical route as Sv 43A....

smrtbsbs SG

HG to Serangoon?

WTF is LTA thinking? got many buses from HG to SGN already and got the NEL also. Dun tell me they want to relieve 147 loads ah..by duplicating 147???

TIB1218R SG

My guess:

50 Punggol - Bishan
Via, Punggol Place, Central, Way, Sengkang East Rd, Anchorvale St, Anchorvale Rd, Sengkang East/West Ave, Sengkang West Rd, Yio Chu Kang Rd, CTE, AMK Ave 5, Ave8, Bishan Rd, Street 14, St13, St11, St 13..

20 Tampines - Shenton Way
Via
Tamp Ctrl 1, Ave 5, Simei Ave, Xilin Ave, ECP, Beach Rd, Esplanade Dr, Fullerton Rd, Collyer/Raffles Quay, Shenton Way, Palmer Rd

SBST163 SG

My Guess

50 Punggol - Bishan
Punggol -> Sengkang East/West -> Jalan Kayu -> Yio Chu Kang Road -> Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 -> Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6 -> Bishan Road -> Bishan Int

objective is to ease 163's load from Fernvale to YCK.

IMO.. Hougang to Serangoon is very very redundant!

Hg to serangoon is not redundant. Or else why they keep on adding buses for sv43??
