Nopes. Some people love the idea of being there on time. withouth this bulk, 188E is useless very true. 174e is god damn not that express, but it is still cr...

well said.. Mr. Green

i personally feel that 506 is like island cut through service *express

muziq bus SG

u can "personally feel" all u want.

not many boards 506 from JE to Bedok.
go and see for yourself then

SBS9889U SG

Agree! Nothing is faster than 506 from Bedok Rsvr to BB/JE.

SBS9889U SG

Quite some people living in Bedok takes 506 to Toa Payoh instead and there is a reason behind it.

service_238 SG

So what’s the reason?

patdog112 SG

of course.. express buses are not meant to board from INT all the way to the other INT...

TIB1062Y SG

Yeap.. Evidence that can back up your answer --> 963E bendy bus (2nd 963E trip, school holiday timesheet, unsure whether is it still TIB1230D as perm 963E bendy)

NPNT?!? Here's one below:

muziq bus SG

fine. so be it. that is why i said, 188E stops at many stops because of that reason.

anyway, i opened this topic to discuss on 188E. not 506

Volvo Olympian SG

Spotted TIB 601Z on 188E this morning..

They're quite smart in this terms. First of all, the bus stops 188E skips are bus stops that hardly many people board or alight. Just look at BB road as a case...and secondly, by putting the service at super peak hours,many will be forced to board as they wouldn't have a choice. Waiting for a regular 188 may mean that a person will be late for work.

khk SG

they r forcing ppl to make adjustments... most ppl on morning peak take bus of regular timing, passengers haf to adjust their time to catch those regular buses.

service_238 SG

more like they are forcing people to take their 188e by putting the service at the timing when alot of office workers take. Laughing

74e and 151e, maybe, and I agree with you that those two routes are more or less useless; I can't say the same for route 174e though. I once took this bus from Wheelock Place to Boon Lay once; I boarded the 6:33 PM bus and reached Boon Lay at a little over 7, the only delay being caused by heavy traffic. A normal route 174 would have taken over an hour.

sBs_boy SG

74e Does have the demand from SP / SIM / NP. It's only that the demand ends at AMK or Hougang Ave 8.

jetabt767400 SG

Hmm, I saw quite some people board 74e at Dover station although there is one svc 74 DD behind...
Also, many a times, some lecturer will come down from the escalators, see the svc 74 DD behind, the 74e Strider in front, went 'heck', and board the Strider...

muziq bus SG

in a way ya, but its the same case for any other E and FFW buses.
So its cool.

N ya, to patdog, i took 506 today for the 2nd time...and ya lar, it is a fast service. But i wished my driver drove faster

963e, 97e and 174e has got load.

LOL, they are trying to provide a healthy option to the passengers

151e and 74e are like 188e...stop at quite a few stops. unsure bout loading still.

patdog112 SG

peace Wink

different people got different opinion to tings... Razz

cheers
