Maybe they make 265 & 268 start from there instead. AMDEP becomes another looping point.

like what i say, they can put up the posters for fare increase very very fast and at some ulu ulu bus stop as well, but not for this.

anyway, it is up to them to decide..

i think there might be some traffic jam along AMK Ave 8 (just outside AMK MRT Station) during peak hours once the interchange open..

7 services need to turn right into Ave 3 from Ave 8.. now in the morning peak hours, the vehicles on the right turn lane can stretch from the Ave 8/Ave 3 junction up to the pedestrians traffic light crossing..

shall wait and see

Saw the traffic light being summoned and the other removed just now.

Should be going smooth tomorrow I guess =).

Alot of green rangers stationed around the interchange today...
meanwhile, the Passenger Service Office is not ready yet if I am not wrong, alot of technicians still inside fixing cables etc.

Lots of BCs standing outside the Passenger Serice Office, dunno what they saying/discussing.

Theres also guides about the New AMK Bus Interchange.

the new amended service guides will be out tomorrow Very Happy

105090 SG

this time theres no amendments to bus services unlike Toa Payoh..

pity, they didnt bring back or revive 266 and 267

86 and 138 continues to use ave 3, which is a good thing, brings better connectivity anyway

choww SG

A last look before its gone

Frogleg888 SG

Is there any pictures showing the new interchange exit and Ave 8 junction?Any jam? Smile

Newly refurbished AMK Bus Interchange gets thumbs-up from commuters

SINGAPORE : The newly refurbished bus interchange at Ang Mo Kio Hub officially opened on Saturday and it got the stamp of approval from commuters and businesses.

The new interchange is fully air-conditioned, making commuting a breeze for users.

It is also safer for passengers, especially with sensors that detect when a bus enters a bay.

All 15 bus services were housed at a temporary interchange nearby when the Hub was being constructed.

Retail and food outlets located at the nearby Hub have also benefited from the opening.

A worker at one cosmetics shop says business has improved by at least 30 per cent and commuters are smiling too.

"The new interchange is nice, it's clean, it's better than last time," said one commuter.

"For the passenger, after shopping you can just hop on to the bus. It's more convenient," said another. - CNA/ch

the new brochure for AMK Int and the service guide notice boards at the Int do not indicate svc 169 (coz its run by SMRT).

also, i noticed there's hardly space at the parking area to accomodate the bendies. i think cannot have anymore SMRT svcs to AMK Int besides svc 169, or else the roadside parking lots for SMRT would be overloaded.

the new int is really comfortable and beautiful. however, the walls prevent queueing pax from looking out whether the bus is arriving, unlike Toa Payoh Int. this one thing i don't really like.

Many BCs seemed happy and smiling a lot at the SBST counter area - prob because of the new A/C Int! Laughing

trenzterra SG

yeah i think when they designed the int they failed to take into consideration the walls..

u don't know when the bus is coming.. say if the person in front doesn't take the bus.. then no one will take liao Laughing

actually with advanced technology nowadays, they should have a LED light light up when the bus arrives or something..

service_238 SG

actually the walls are ok... its the direction of the queue berth that causes people not to see if the bus that they want to take is coming.

The queue berth faces the same direction as the traffic flow... how to see?
