Please note.The bus stop had been expanded and it really did happen so u say it had not been done but had done it.I think i should add a little word to the...

Bus Stopping SG

railing is not for itchy leg ppl to go jaywalk.

the car park entrance is there, taxi stand is there & there's proper walkway at HDB flat void deck

If they wanted to prevent ppl from jaywalking, why not put the railing at the center divider as many places has done so?

I dont think its a smart move to place railings to stop ppl from jaywalking because of the railings that only allow 2 buses to stop at once. They might have prevent ppl from jaywalking, but decreased the efficiency of the bus stop and the services plying thru the stop significantly.

Another way to say it is, everyone taking the bus thru clementi mrt stop has to waste 5 minutes everyday because of the handful of jaywalkers.

So u telling me they have to put a 20meters railing along the bus stop to block ppl from crossing thru the carpark entrance?

There's alrdy proper and it's covered someone linkway via the bakery tat side.

Sometimes they've to place e railing w/ some consideration factor i.e. human traffic flow.

Yea, i know theres a proper covered linkway, thats why i dont see a point why they built such a long railing in the first place. Looking back at the old clementi stop, 5 buses can easily drop off at the same time. Now its not even possible.

This is how bad it is now.

If the situation is very bad everyday, my guess would be some services will not call at Clementi MRT in future, but instead call inside the new interchange alighting berth once it starts.

My guess being Service 14, 147, 166, since they run parallel with the MRT from Dover MRT, it is unlikely for people to transfer to the MRT anyway. .

Can only say the bus stop might be upgraded for all bus svs.

North Buona Vista Rd (Opp Buona Vista Stn)

Stagger or bus - bus hub?

More ppl transfer along Commonwealth Ave than along North Bouna Vista Rd.

Only 92 does not stop along Commonwealth Ave, so there's no point to build a bus-bus hub/ staggered bus stop there.

Another possible place is Opp Orchard MRT (Orchard Boulevard). They recently pulled down a tree just after the bus stop.

tis BNV is more over MRT crowd.

But when CCL4/ 5 commence, maybe situation is diff

The current road condition in Clementi is bad enough because
1.There are a lot fo private condo buses parking in the bus stops---Eg,The Chevrons,The Botonia,The Infinti,The Carellia (spelling might be error)
There will be 5 private buses at one time and CAUSED JAMS.
2.There are railings as you had mentioned.
3.The taxi did not obey the principle as there only wirtten MAX 3 TAXIS but it can go all the way up to 10 taxis
4.There are some inconsiderate drivers who tend to park/wait the cars there as some might just buy food or deposit/withdraw cash so they park thier cars
at LANE 1.By doing so,it had taken up the Lane 1 with the Taxis as well and Priavte buses

and dont worry,it had been jamming there since 6 years ago in 2005 as I lived there so long I had get used to it.So with the New Clementi Bus Interchange,
it will make no difference even if it skipped the current old bus stops and go to interchange straight away.

Our conditions were like [email protected] road got 3 lanes.SAME AS OURS and jams all over.Anyway we did say we will ike to have 1-2 more lanes so it has 5 lanes but it is rather
impossible due to too cramped.

Some updates, the railings as I have mentioned previously have been shorten to about 1 bus length. The bus stop should now be able to accomodate about 4 to 5 buses.

Go down to the bus stop to take a look when u have a chance, there's the previous railing marks which are covered with a new layer of pavement.

sbst275 SG

Seriously Lakeside Stn bus stop should be widened. It has to cater to Jurong East Ave 1 & Taman Jurong residents.
