what did u think..?

sinicker SG

are you doing this purely for your own benefit?

in any case, during peak hrs, 969 wud already be packed to the front door frm the int.

SBS 233 X SG

I think I said this before somewhere. In this case, 969 will need to use “MRT” already, bendies also cannot cope during peak hours.

bus555 SG

are u sure but afternoon not crouded lar and ya y nowadays 969 so crouded leh wonder where those ppl want 2 go by service 969??

SBS 233 X SG

Why I am not sure? I am a Tampines Resident, same to Sinicker. We can see 70% load during off-peak.

sinicker SG

yes you have to realise you arent the only one living in Tampines here.

969 is to be left untouched.

and you do not question why people need to go places.

969 and 168 are the more successful buses, as compared to 39 85 161 965..

anyone knows whether 969 ever used a different route to enter tampines or call at any stops within tampines?

it called at sunshine park before?

sinicker SG

sunshine pk? u mean sunplaza pk?

heard once that a S969 stopped at the never-used-before bus stop outside SunPlaza Pk coz someone pressed the bell just as it exited the expway towards Tampines Int?

S161 load quite okay. S161 and S168 like to come out of WDL Int together. likewise for S67/969 in tampines.

Seems that recently Sv168’s frequency is very good(Take tonight as example). I sat at Tam Ave 4 and every 27 come then got 1 168 come (Observe about 20+ mins only)

sbst275 SG

Actually if SBS can come with this is good, ppl at Nee Soon have buses to IKEA Tampines

Bedok Tampines Yishun...

Mr. Green

sinicker SG

was driving along 168's route towards WDL frm Tampines MRT Stn onwards just now ard 6pm..

saw one DD S168 opposite library.
saw another at Ave 7/9 junction. Shocked Shocked

that's like.... 3mins! got jam or not along Ave 10?

sinicker SG

SBS will reply......

"please take our S39 and transfer to our S168. With SeasonPass, you can go places now!"

Laughing

Can tell them lor, like this SMRT's 969 will still have a leading edge cos of potential loss of revenue.. Tampines MRT there got 27, 168 leh Mr. Green

How's about:

Kent Ridge Terminal, Clementi Road, Commonwealth Ave West, Dover Station, Commonwealth Ave, Holland Avenue, Holland Road, North Buona Vista Road, Commonwealth Ave West, Dover Station, Clementi Road, Kent Ridge Terminal.

Benefits: 1. linkage between NUS and Dover Station. 2. bus to Dover Station from Holland Ave and Holland Road. 3. faster link between Kent Ridge and Holland Village.

Alternatively,

Kent Ridge Terminal, Clementi Road, Commonwealth Ave West, Dover Station, Commonwealth Ave, Holland Avenue, Holland Road, Napier Road, Tanglin Road, Orchard Road, Dhobby Ghaut,(not familiar with those names), City Hall, Shenton Way Terminal.

Benefits: 1. SBST could alleviate the passenger loads and long waiting time for SMRT106. 2. SBST could snatch passengers (at SP and Holland V) away from SMRT106. 3. SP, Dover, Ghim Moh, Holland passengers/residents have alternative to SMRT106 to Orchard and Town.

i wrote in before in 2004 about the dover-NUS route, it didn't work out then. Sad

carbikebus SG

How bout Tuas Terminal to CCK rd end(The cemetries there),Last bus from the cemetries will be 24.02 Mr. Green

musli_bar SG

What you're saying is extending 405 to Tuas?

[email protected] SG

Is this route possible within the PTC rules?

SBST Svc 146: Buona Vista - Yishun

Direction 1:
C'wealth Ave
Alexandra Rd
Jln Bt Merah
Lower Delta Rd
Tiong Bahru Rd
Outram Rd
Eu Tong Sen St
Hill St
Stamford Rd
CTE, SLE
Lentor Ave
Yishun Ave 2

Direction 2 deduce yourself Very Happy

It satisfy the rules of serving two friendly towns (BNV & Bt Merah) before going straight to enermy territory (Yishun) & can steal ppl taking MRT from Chinatown to Yishun

A good route , but you must know that the chances of implementing this service is very slim coz 1. u have to pay when u go by CTE & its expensive during peak hours. 2. Jams always occur in CTE , especially peak hours , the jam is damn terrible! I dun think SBST will implement such service coz they're always afraid that there might not be enoug passengers to cover up te fare unless it is an express service give your route 501 if u think it should be a express service. Why not extending ur route to Sembawang as Sembawang has some vacancies:

SBST svc 175 : Buona Vista - Sembawang
Buona Vista Ter (no boarding & alighting)
Holland Dr
C'wealth Ave
C'wealth Ave West
Boon Lay Way
Jurong East Central
Jurong East Ave 1
Jurong Town Hall Rd
Bt Batok Rd
Choa Chu Kang Way
KJE
BKE
Mandai Rd
Mandai Ave
Yishun Ave 2
Canberra Link
Canberra Rd
Sembawang Vista (Sembawang Int)

This looks better isnt it? It at least links people from Sembawang & Buona Vista , Clementi & Jurong East to the zoo & a quicker & direct link to Sembawang instead of transferring MRT at Jurong East Int.

What do you guys think?

swee_heng SG

you might as well enhance 172 or 975 to Tuas
