But there's no right turn from Portsdown Ave to Queensway (Jln Bukit Merah bound)

n4l SG

AMK - Marymount Road - Covered by 74
Marymount Road - Bukit Timah Rd - Covered by 852 and 74
Marymount Road - Bukit Batok - Covered by 852
Marymount Road - Whitley Road (or more like the bus stop under the flyover at Thomson Rd) - Covered by 54 and 851

Then somemore I can take 852 or 74, change to 52 at Lornie Rd to go to Jurong.

So much duplicates, cannot lah Laughing .

tanjun SG

Can't really remember whether a right turn is permitted. But i do remember that there are traffic lights junctions between Portsdown and Queensway.

tanjun SG

It follows 262 route initially. After that, it follows a bit of 74 and 132 route. Then, it follows 156 route to Bukit Timah Rd and runs 174 route to Bukit Batok.

AMK to Marymount Rd: 74
AMK to Thomson Rd: 132 or 166
AMK to Stevens Rd: 132
AMK to Bukit Timah Rd: 74
Bukit Batok to AMK areas: 852
Bukit Batok to Jurong East: 66, 176 (176 is faster)
Bukit Timah to Bukit Batok: 66, 157, 174 (runs the same route as this svc)

However, in my opinion, the route is long winded.
Suppose, if I want to go to Thomson Rd from AMK, I can take this service as it is a faster route as compared to 132 or 166 which passes by Upper Thomson Rd.
If I want to go to Bukit Timah, I will take 74 as it is faster.
To Jurong East, Bukit Batok: I will take MRT.

So this service provides a direct link from residents residing at eastern part of Bishan Pk to Bukit Timah, Thomson and Bukit Batok areas.
In terms of duplication, it is more since it runs some sort of parallel with 132 till mid journey, 74 at mid - late and 852 at end.

A bit long but the Geylang & Kallang Bahru Route is a gd route to play around...

Advantages:

2. An additonal supplement of the current Service 64 which is the only service to stop at Sims Place Terminal.

Disadvantages:
1. Heavy route duplication.

Significant Note(s):
1. The extended route of Service 87 on leg 1 heading Southwards to Sims Place Terminal does not go to Bedok Interchange, reason being that others can take the MRT or any other bus services to Aljunied and transfer from there.
2. The extended route of Service 87 on leg 2 heading Northwards to Sengkang will stop at Bedok Interchange to drop off and pick up passengers.

How about extending 175 to EUN and making it ply BEach Rd instead of Victoria St/Nth Bridge Rd?

But this will greatly affect the link between Bedok Int and Kaki Bukit.

Furthermore, I feel that it's 'weird' to make a big loop at Kaki Bukit/Chai Chee just to get back at Eunos to head to Sims Place.

Personally, I think it would be better to have a link between Kaki Bukit/Bedok Reservoir with Marine Parade/Upp East Coast Rd.

den wat abt ppl from depot rd/jln bt merah/zion rd/paterson rd going there?

TWS4793 SG

For your first suggestion about the broken links that affect Bedok Intercange and Kaki Bukit, maybe why not I extend the route to Bedok Interchange while still leaving the full route unchanged?

For your second suggestion, there is a reason why I suggested of the service to make a big loop at Kaki Bukit/Chai Chee.
a) At Bedok North Road, there is a small road (Chai Chee Street) that links to the main Chai Chee Street if you're coming in from the East. However, if it's coming in from North (Tampines Avenue 10), there's no way that the drivers could turn into the small road that I mentioned earlier. Drivers had to either do a three point turn at Bedok North Road (Bedok North Avenue 1) or turn at Bedok North Avenue 1 and then turn back in to Chai Chee Street to continue the journey.
b) Notice that route duplication would be heavy if I just make this service continue on Bedok North Avenue 1 to New Upper Changi Road? That's why I suggested that the service should turn into Chai Chee Road. Also, if you want a short and direct way of getting from Bedok Interchange to say, the bus stop at Chai Chee Drive, it's better to have a direct way.

However, the route duplication will be heavy once the service turns into Changi Road. There's no way the service could go to Siglap Road if it wants to fully utilise the DDs.

As for your last suggestion, good point there. However, again there's route duplication since Service 16 and 197 ply Marine Parade Road (not sure whether Service 16 does that). But I will think about your suggestion and make necessary changes if there are any or are required.

So, in summary, the things that I would do are:
a) Either realter the service to make it ply the suggested route that you have suggested, or
b) Introduce a new mid-haul service that will ply from Bedok to Sims Place through Marine Parade (especially calling at the bus stops where the former CSS 608 will call at).
