SMRT to introduce Teacher's Estate Service

TIB1018B SG

Just passed by Teachers' estate near my house and noticed that new bus stops have been set up along Kalidasa Ave and Tagore Ave with a new poster indicating that SMRT will be introducting a new shuttle between YCK MRT and Teachers' Estate.

Now got direct bus from my housing estate to YCK MRT, finally after service 825 was shortened in 1997 Very Happy

Didn't really see the date, but I think it is on Monday 26 June if I am not mistaken Wink

This is a weekday (full day till 8pm) and sat (1/2 day) service.

Seems like they are not willing to allocate a service number for this service… why not 826? :p

Wonder how the tix of this service would look like Confused

I suppose SMRT should be using bus plus for this service...just imagine a MB0405 or a Dennis Lance struggling along the narrow streets along Teacher's estate Shocked Shocked

Just wait and see on 26 June, see what bus SMRT uses Rolling Eyes

Really expensive, but I think the teachers now earn a lot right? Laughing

Just imagine, from your house go CBD cost $2++

Volvo Olympian SG

Teachers' Estate is just a normal housing estate, not really must have teachers.. that place been there for decades.. and they get a bus service finally... but at a ridiculous fare..

looking at the frequency, probably 2 buses for the 15min frequency, bus plus bus

This service should just be an ordinary feeder service instead of a special, $1.15 flat fare service. I doubt that this service will have good ridership, like service 825.
