Any suggestions on merger? Until now merger of services 37 & 69, of 181 & 333, of 83 & 87 and of 52 & 99 have been discussed.

there should be a balance of short and long routes. if its gonna mean changing so many routes too long ones. i dun think its feasible.

I mean for those routes that have many repetitions between each other or those that can be merged together but do not cause lots of problems (like short routes merging with short routes creating "medium" routes; an example of a short route is 181). However the advantage of merging into long routes is the usage of express routes.

Merge 26 and 73.

Some minor amendments of service 196 to ply NUS science fac rather than Dover.

There are several reasons for choosing service 196.

Reason 1: Service 95 is always jam packed during peak hrs probably due to its frequency. People have to take shuttle bus to Computer centre to take 95 or 96 there when going home. Service 196 can help to alleviate service 95 load by 1. providing a link from Buona Vista to NUH and NUS, 2. providing a link from Clementi to NUH, NUS.

Reason 2: There are already 3 services going to Bedok from Dover. Service 14, 33, and finally 196. 2 services 14, 196 go to clementi. 14, 166 go to Dover MRT. 2 services 14 and 196 from there go to bukit merah central. Service 33 ply the Alexandra Rd area. In addition, the residential areas are situated near the main road North Buona Vista Rd. Residents who want to go to Shenton Way can walk out around 300 metres to the main road to take 196.

In conclusion, service 196's route is the most suitable for amendments to NUS. Besides, dds can be deployed onto this new route since the bridge at the junction between Lower Kent Ridge Rd and Kent Ridge Cres is 4.5 metres which is as high as a normal overhead bridge.

Looks like 48 will be amended to serve NUS soon.

Townlink 240? Merger of current service 240 with 181

Townlink 240? Merger of current service 240 with 181

lol. SBST prefer trunk..

look at service 113.. actually 113 should be townlink and not trunk since the service loop within Hougang Area.

two feeder merge into one trunk..

same goes to 112..

jayh272416 SG

Maybe if they want trunk then can extend 181 off somewhere else... merge with 334 maybe? Instead of 333 as suggested above.

Or maybe do both 334 and 333 then go to jurong east? Then can merge 335 with something else haha.

101 and 161? Serangoon to WDL

Or maybe 78 and 284? Become Jurong East to Clementi Ave 4 (loop) via Clementi Station... more links provided. I think can right turn from Commonwealth Ave West to Clementi Ave 4 right, correct me if im wrong

198 and 192? Bt Merah to Tuas

99 and 242? Clementi to Boon Lay

And a route suggestion. 40 use Geylang East Central, 155 cut out that LONG LOOP in macpherson estate (thought of this for a long long time liao, but never post)

heatblast SG

Sengkang Int to Kent Ridge Ter

jayh272416 SG

Sengkang Int to Kent Ridge Ter

Why not give it to Lower Kent Ridge Rd and Clementi Int instead? Currently no links from Clementi to LKR yet, unless you come in.

Ajen SG

New Service 99 (merger of 99 & 242)

99M* - Boon Lay Temp Int to Boon Lay Temp Int via Jurong West st 91

New Service 99 (merger of 99 & 242)

99M* - Boon Lay Temp Int to Boon Lay Temp Int via Jurong West st 91

*operate during peak hour.

Clementi - Jurong West st 91 (loop)

99M should be operating the whole day. 99 and 99M operating at 6min frequency while the remaining route 99 operates at 12min freq.

jayh272416 SG

Amend 48 to use Marine Cres/Terrace

Reason: v. fast to city area

AJQZC SG

lSengkang Int to Kent Ridge Ter svc 96

lyk this?

Good idea, but too long. A merge of 99 and 96 could be more feasible.
