This service has almost the same purpose as the current SBST
sv.128. To get to the NEL from Tanjong Pagar Stn, one
will probably transfer at Outram Park Stn, which means a long
walk from the EWL to NEL and vice versa. Another option would be to
take EWL to Raffles Place, NSL to Dhoby Gauht and finally to NEL,
two transfers on the train is also quite time consuming and
troublesome. Therefore this service is targeted at Shenton Way
workers living in NEL areas and I do foresee some form of demand
for this service given a current report in zaobao that
there are more people prefering buses over
trains at certain circumstances most probably due to
convinence of saving the trouble from walking up and down for
transfers on trains. Upper Serangoon Rd is chosen as the express
sector as that part is already served by sv.107.
