PTC's List of bus service applications for Nov 08 to May 09

SBS7382C SG

Look at the Bukit Panjang LRT when it first opened.
179, 344, 345 was withdrawn.
920 was introduced after much complains by the whole estate, up to MP level and media. 922 subsequently introduced.

700 might have to go when DTL opens. 190 might also.
Hopefully it doesnt happen. =X
171 should be confirmed shortened to Bukit Panjang.

why cut back 171?

why cut back 171?

It will duplicates DTL2 from Bukit Panjang to Newton, then duplicates NSL from Newton to Dhoby Ghaut, then duplicates CCL1 from Dhoby Ghaut to Esplanade.

I hope that when DTL2 opens, service 171 will be cutback to become: Yishun - Bukit Panjang and then either merges with service 172 with a slight route change in Choa Chu Kang or merges with service 180. This new merged service will become: Yishun - Boon Lay.

i would rather see 171 extend to other places rather then cutback..

but whatever it is, mrt lines should not involve with bus svcs..

Where do you want the service to extend?

iveco SG

IMO, 11 & 62 can merge. Some trips on 62 can extend to Kallang Park, rendering 11 redundant.

171, if it is no longer allowed to go into CBD, should moerge with 180 and extend to SBW. This would become SBW to BNL via YIS, Mandai Camp, BPJ, BBT and JUE.

Hmm, how come SBST didn't think about extending 107 all the way to PGL considering this is the only suburb with no bus to CBD? 82 can function like another 882. The idea of merging 97 and 130 is also worth some thought.

extend till CCK..

sbst275 SG

sekali NSL cannot cope w/ Newton - Orchard stretch?

SBS8258Y SG

It will duplicates DTL2 from Bukit Panjang to Newton, then duplicates NSL from Newton to Dhoby Ghaut, then duplicates CCL1 from Dhoby Ghaut to Esplanade.

Add on 67, it travels parallel along DTL 2 from Bt Panjang to Little India. Currently it is oso travelling parallel wif EWL from Kallang to Bedok too. For this, will suggest tat either 67 or 171 would be affected. Remembered the old 182 under tibs was withdrawn due to duplication.

700 should be withdrawn and merged with 190 which will be diverted to ply along Petir Rd. Pax can still depend on 960 to get to Marina Ctr from Bt Panjang though.

SBS9364S SG

why cut back 171?

921 was 're-introduced' too. However, it was withdrawn due to opening of new roads, & merged wit rapid 700. After that, it was renamed as 'normal' 700.

SBS9364S SG

IMO, 11 & 62 can merge. Some trips on 62 can extend to Kallang Park, rendering 11 redundant.

Den people won't wait longer 4 bus 2 go National Stadium area liao.

920 was introduced after much complains by the whole estate, up to MP level and media. 922 subsequently introduced.

Svc 5 too, ppl complained no direct link from 6th avenue to commonwealth MRT. After which 970 was introduced to patch back the direct link.

Well, sengkang side oso kanna complain too after 85 (sengkang - harbourfront) was withdrawn due to NEL rationalisation. After which 119 was re-introduced from sengkang to kovan hub (similar route to 860 which was the 1st svc introduced by tibs in 1998).

SBS8258Y SG

921 was renumbered from 343 which was not affected by the BPLRT.

700 was no longer a 'rapidbus' even before 921 was merged with 700

Rk 2010 SG

700 was a Rapidbus when it was still plying between Woodlands and Shenton Way if im not wrong. As for NEL rationalisation, services like 97, 111, 106, 502 and etc had their routes cut or extended.

700 existed as a RapidBus even when it was shortened to Bukit Panjang. That was still long time before it merged with 921.

Yeah, that explains the rapid logo which is still exist at BP Int berth queue

wad abt 67 using PIE again?

tranquilice SG

wad abt 67 using PIE again?

...and duplicating service 23?

tranquilice SG

I liked the idea of merging service 97 and 23 to become Jurong East - Tampines.

tranquilice SG

extend till CCK..

If service 171 extends to Choa Chu Kang, it should merge with service 172 to become Yishun - Boon Lay as what I suggested above.

tranquilice SG

But what about Jalan Besar and Lavender St? Service 67 is the only service that links Lavender St to Little India MRT. It is also the only service that links Kallang MRT to Jalan Besar.
