Bus route changes gradual & in response to public feedback

I think it'll change as the route tender - bundling system kicks off.

5 mins is very subjective.

Like I've said I can only post which stations are the planned x-fer pts, but the location of the bus stops cna only be at places where its safe.

Buona Vista: Hub for x-fer to buses to Ayer Rajah, Science Pk I, NUH.

C'wealth: Hub for x-fer to buses to PSA Bldg, Bt Merah.

At this juncture, we had little knowledge on how the hub and spoke system works. I would hope that they implement more shortworking trips rather than removing some trunk services. Example if Commonwealth Station is identified as hub to PSA Bldg, does it mean SBST100 should start from Commonwealth instead.

I hope not.

Well SWTs can only be implemented if that leg has much much higher loading than other stretches.

There's no terminal available to be built at C'wealth. Furthermore, hubs n spokes dun mean all buses becomes short haul feedering svs. Buses will still have to be kept in spite of e MRT.

For example.

Sv 63

The highest loading leg is Eunos - Ubi - Macpherson Est - Aljunied MRT. Even though the leg from Aljunied MRT - Chinatown is the next highest in loading, I believe it's in the ratio of 2: 1, hence there's Sv 63A to ply the highest leg.

Sv 124

There's 2 distinct high demand pt: St Michaels - Orchard & Chinatown - Telok Blangah. But as the loading is almost similiar, there's no way a SWT can be implemented.

In your opinion, when Circle Line NUH station started, will it be a HUB to NUS? And what will happen to SBST 95 and 96 and SBST91 (to Science Park 1)?

Anyway it can be anyone guess.

Circle Line is very limited, it does not really serves NUS less Medical & Computing. Furthermore w/ only 3 carriage n 6 mins peak freq, can it cope w/ ppl heading to Pasir Panjang?

Science Pk I will still need a bus to e inside

If I am not in favor in joining the grassroot, and yet I would like to contribute in betterment to the public transport system in my estate, what other avenues I can participate?

Where do LTA obtain the feedback? Should I feed back to LTA or SBST or SMRT or PTC in regards to the public transport system in my estate?

And is the plan to merge the BV and GM terminals into an interchange and have it relocate next to BV MRT Station (E-W) has been shelved or aborted? I believe many bus services will be withdrawn from Holland Drive if the merging and relocation indeed take place.
