Is there a need for service 925C and 961C?

my 170 mean 170(woodlands-kotaraya) route. sry for misunderstanding.

i beliveve 170 frequency had been adjusted since launch of CW2, its not like last time, bus come every 1-2 min.

i took 170(woodlands-kotaraya) many times from JB - Woodlands & vice versa. don really think its needed unless morning & evening peak

i think 170X is not redundant at all. during off peak hours, the load is acceptably high than other service, due to the fact that 160 170(normal) CW2 comes once in a while.

170 frequency has rised from ~8mins to 15mins nowadays
in its heyday, SBS advertised every 3 mins per bus from Kranji (160 170B 170R)
now, its like every 8mins per trip ex-Kranji

me very long never take an ex-Kranji 170 liao.. cos the freq is more to 15mins/bus..
taking 178 to sengsong and walk up is much faster, sadly..

ok.. lets not OT too much.. this is about 925C and 961C ...

925C (and 91), i dont know why is sungei kadut not served at night and on sundays, PHs, despite the size of the ind. estate and poor accessibility.. even JIEs operates 365 days a year

Cos 170X now allows boarding Os Kranji. Few takers would cross the bridge these days.

Ever saw a packed 170X into CIQ from Kranji while a 160 tat arrived prior to that has only 4 passengers onboard.

In any case for 170 it's pretty epic. 13 mins is pretty ok as travelling pattern has really changed ever since the JB CIQ shifted.

925 I believe the take was because in the past, not many ppl would access tat place for it's mostly concrete and timber industries. I believe it has changed for there are dorms and furniture showrooms.

Then I believe feeder bus should appear from Yew Tee.

really a waste of resources that 170X has to loop at turf club/BKE/ave3.. should just loop immediately and rest at kota raya or sheng shiong.. so many times Kranji so many long queues, the ex-JB buses still have time to make the large loop round BKE

and that it has to make the U-turn after the cemetery.. waste another 5mins

What to do, there’s no other place for buses to park and what abt Friday lorry jam?

Also that u turn is made by CW1 is illegal. It’s simply because it’s only 2 lanes (merger).

Accident has occurred before with a Msian bus recently.

Talking abt it, CW drivers hardly dare to uturn in the AM peak knowing the jam.

Scared of side swipe during the illegal uturn.

To me rather follow spend that 4-5 mins than to get into accident one bus down, ppl get injured, summon so on.

Saw this before on my 925 ride

853 take full route everyday, why not x-fer 13 then?

853C was just meant to just pick up those visiting east coast park on weekdays so they have a nice and direct ride home.

From marine parade to yishun, you could always take 966 xfer 857. Really fast provided 966 or 857's freq dosent go haywire.

925C ought to renumbered say to 924.Got 1 incident where my KJ SL friend pick up 5 pax from Kranji Loop on Sunday where they think the bus will go to Sungei Kadut...Cant blame those guys also cause EDS also put 925 instead of 925C

true. i always took 857/966. much faster tat 853 or 854/966 from yishun.

anyway i believe 853C is an additional route on sunday/p.h to help to pick up passengers to upp east coast despite having service 13

strictly speaking, with DBTF and such, 853C can be removed lo
everyone alight change to 13

But the Parkway leg is pretty catchy to remove it

talking abt redundancy,

the following svc is also involved.

66 & 228. i believe is due to trunk/feeder fare

194 & 251 - to me 194 is an supplementary svc
