Woah. Idea sounds feastible. To me, it is ok if 410A or 410C
routes are stated clearly at bus stops and Transitlink Bus
Guides.
To a general public, it sounds rather confusing. Some people are
asking me about differentiating the directions of buses of 73, 136,
315, 317 respectively at Serangoon Garden Circle. Of course, I will
have to explain like 73, 136 use different coloured bus plates at
the side of the bus while 315, 317 use a small card in front of the
driver's seat.
Then they ask me, how come SBST don't want to standardise the way
of differentiating the directions so that it will be easier for us?
I am stunned though. Anyway, with 985W, 67W and other shortworking
trips, what I am worried is that commuters are confused and tend to
infer from another SMRT service like for example 67W is a
shortworking trip instead of acting as a role like 73, 136, 315,
317.
