BTW, in other countries' transport system (London, Australia,
and Europe), limited stop and express services are provided at the
same fare as the basic service, as it is seen to ease the load of
the basic services during peak time.
By helping to shed load of the regular services, commuters
travelling to further areas do not have to take the same vehicle as
those travelling one or 2 stop.
In these countries, the loading of limited stop and express
services, and the basic services are level.
Pathetically, Singapore's fast-forward, express services uses
the vehicle from the parent route deployment, but are always empty,
especially on 151e and 74e.
This results in double loading and waiting time for the next
In these services, concession pass holders
who are mostly students are double-penalised,
because on top of having paid the concession pass, they have to pay
an additional $2 to use these services.
Do you even take 151e?
EMPTY?
Do you even take 151 to start with? Do you know where's the peak
loading and the rationale behind the "synergy" behind 151A and
151e? (Although I personally think 151A is quite a useless service
since in reality very few people take 151A because of how the buses
are released from Kent Ridge)
If you don't, you can write however much you like, and I'll
consider it as junk post.
I can't write about 74e. I don't take 74e although I take 74
when I get fed up with 151.
