Maybe after the opening of the huge NTUC Fairprice at AMK Hub, the people stopped going to Giant @ Turfcity, hence service demand has dropped drastically. Possible?

Ppl probably prefer Sheng Siong to Giant nowadays.

Not to mention that the Giant at Tampines has been opened.

So sad that I cannot go to Ang Mo Kio for free after 1 May 2008.

But, I am wondering whose idea is it to withdrawn this routes, don't the shop owners like Ah Yat Seafood have something to say about it.

Take a MRT from Ang Mo Kio to Toa Payoh, it only cost u 78c (by ezlink). Then take the free shuttle bus from there instead

AMK Shuttle ridership is unstable(sometimes high/low) & the bus stops at near shelter aft traffic light for boarding/alighting thn cut aross the road to turn right(which sometimes obstructs traffic) & little rest time for driver(due to slow traffic along PIE slip rd to Lorine Rd/Lorine Rd/goes 1 round to AMK Ave 8).

Also there's AMK Hub nearby.

With the price of oil soaring, withdraw the service is the best way to save $$$
