Swiss Cottage can use ADD??? If like this, 66 ought to have used ADD long ago..

But 325 is at least a SD. This was a DD at about 3pm today afternoon.

Which part of the route?

A few days ago, a traffic jam occured on Lor 4 Toa Payoh, causing 88's time to be delayed. You can easily see 88 coming in twins - all filled to the brim, even when both are DDs.

Which part of the route?

I took the bus at Toa Payoh Int (around 50 pax) and then at Lor 6 it filled and was 80+ when I got down at Bishan road. I feel 88 load is more after AMK. Hence, was surprised.

I bet that when Hougang Point/1 is reopened, the load of svcs 72, 109, 159 and 325 is going to be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy higher than usual.
112? Nope, all stolen by 325

88's load will be much higher when reaching AMK Stn. Normally on that stn, many buses following the 88 will honk or just drive away...

How is the loading of 88 on TPE towards Pasir Ris in the morn, afternoon and eve? Any idea?

Is the load around NS Line and NE Line or does it go all the way to the east?

What is Hougang Point 1? New Shopping mall?

No... Hougang Point... The stupid developers renamed it as ''Hougang 1''. Totally sucks. I prefer calling it NTUC/Hougang Point. Ever since Hougang Point went down for construction last year mid-June, the load of all those above mentioned went about 20% lower than usual. The shopping mall is set to be opened by [ I think ] 1st July.

I never take 88 from Sengkang to PSR. You have to ask someone else since I hardly travel to PSR/TAMP/BEDOK/SIMEI area.

BusAnalayzer SG

Come on... Are u meaning to say one shopping mall can increase the bus load on 4 routes by 20%? Unless there is a new HDB complex or big commercial complex coming, the loading doesn't go up by that much.

Is the load around NS Line and NE Line or does it go all the way to the east?

Yes, most of the load, around 45% are from NSL. NEL around 15%.
No, no. Most of them are towards Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10, Hougang Avenue 8, Buangkok Green and Sengkang. Those going to Punggol Point will transfer to 62 at Punggol Primary or take 88 all the way to Sengkang and change to 83.

SBS2656X SG

It is the ONLY shopping MALL in the Hougang North-East region.
Plus there will be new HDB flats completing around Buangkok Green and YCK road intersection area.

BusAnalayzer SG

If that happens, then 88 load will be not manageable and comfortable. In that case, the # of DD on 109 should be increased to at least half its fleet. Now there are only 2 DDs. Any idea how 109 DDs are faring?

SBS2656X SG

109 doesnt need alot of DDs ...

BusAnalayzer SG

Then y have they put 2 DDs on 109? This is new. If the loading wasn't getting high, SBS would not have deployed them on 109 but would have shifted it on another route, neh?

During the morning peak hours, DDs can be full towards Pasir Ris. But off-peak load is low because there's 89.

Thanks for the info, bro. Yes - 89 and 88 are both block buster routes according to me.

No problem.

Most of people in Sengkang need to go to Pasir Ris and Tampines. Same as Yishun and Woodlands.
