I think it must go by the expressways.......

my guess: maybe like SLBP ---> PIE ---> CTE ---> S'goon

That's why.

(but i m not sure if this is true. correct me if need be.)

Superbus SG

I've seen numerous Service 13 buses using Upp East Coast Rd -> Bedok South Ave 3 -> Bedok South Rd -> Bedok North Ave 1 -> Bedok North Rd -> Tampines Ave 10* -> TPE* vv to and from AMDEP, regardless of time.

*assuming they use TPE.

This also applies to many of Service 25's buses, although there's one particular morning when I saw a Service 25 VSO using Sims Ave East to Bedok Int, assuming it's from AMDEP.

new user? Laughing

alex_cai92 SG

they can use their own roads, SBST onli restrict certain rds...
DO NOT trust rumours and service to made made dual-controlled jus for convinence dosen sound quite rite... there many many other factors too...

alex_cai92 SG

there is no irony, 88 controlled by BRAM while 8 dual-controlled has many factors into it.

stooper SG

There's also another down route of that but face the other direction (heading towards JW91). Dunno the exact route though.

alex_cai92 SG

can check SGWiki, but dunno accurate or not...

Edgar_Davids SG

well i not too sure also but for the time being, let's assume there is really no specific rule stipulating that BC have to use the assigned route from their respective depots to bus interchanges/terminals and they can choose whatever routes they deem is the fastest,

nevertheless in my opinion, there is still this herd mentality among BCs operating a particular service that a route has long been chosen and commonly agreed to be the fastest and most effective and everyone will follow their peers and ultimately stick to this "customary" route, although not compulsory

let's take sv 22 for eg, BCs scheduled for the first few early buses at Tamp int generally agreed with one another that the shortest and fastest way to get there from AMDEP is by YCK Rd, CTE, TPE, then Tamp Ave 12,9,7, in the end every Sv 22 BCs follow the majority and uses this route

apart from those eccentric BCs who choose not to follow their peers and prefer to drive their buses abt 10-15 mins earlier and venture some different but longer routes, taking their buses for a "warm up" spin in the cool hours of dawn before starting their work proper

Ironically Svc 88 is only solely controlled by BRAM and Svc 88 BCs uses CTE(towards SLE) and TPE to get to Pasir Ris interchange,

Nothing ironic, there are other examples, eg, 72 using TPE, SLE to get back to AMDEP. 21 also.

SBS3625D SG

62 uses TPE from Punggol to HGDEP, so its quite interesting to see 997A speeding down TPE.

One more thing to add:

I believe Svc 26 follows the EUN routes from BRAM eastbound, then proceeds straight along PIE after Jln Eunos, followed by BDK Nth Rd & Ave 1.

As for other BRAM routes not previously mentioned:

139 (BMR): BRAM, Braddell Road, U - Turn, Bradell Rd, CTE, Jln BMR, BMR Ctr.

145 (BNV): BRAM, Braddell Road, U - Turn, Bradell Rd, CTE, PIE, Lornie Rd, all the way to BNV.
