not bad!! impressive.. 50km.... i guess you cycled down Bedok/ HG ave 3/ Sengkang?

sinicker SG

why does everyone think i cycled to punggol to take 85?? i cycled frm tamp marina south tamp.

105090 SG

tampines to marina south also very impressive!! Surprised

iveco SG

Is the stretch of PGL Rd where 82 once plied no longer served by buses?

sinicker SG

34 plies there... so that stretch still got bus ply there.

muziq bus SG

Did you all notice the spelling error here??

If you ask me, 39 and 85 are not a big threat. The demand is not that high anyway.

brotherchen1982 SG

Should be PUNGGOL anyway. Mr. Green
Thought 85 would use the empty berths beside the toilet in Yishun Int. Neutral

sinicker SG

wah got error!!! give me!!!!

muziq bus SG

well, theres not many 85 parking there anyway. Might as well utilise the spare 2 berths from 39's.

sinicker SG

wait. i want to ask. so the 39/85 passengers form a single queue? so 39/85 takes in passengers and moves off together?

muziq bus SG

nope....they queue at the same birth....but there's 2 exits.... observe the pics and try to visualise....hopefully u can understand...

28_29_293 SG

so svc 39 or svc 85 demand is higher?

muziq bus SG

haha...since u asked...

i do not have the definite or the model answer to that..but based on my observation for the past few days there, (off peak n peak)
39 is slightly more well received....probably due to its longer presence there...

105090 SG

looking at it.. 39 more passengers.. Jalan Kayu is quite a popular transferring stop more many people.. also, 39 goes to high density places like Pasir Ris and Tampines.

whereas 85 goes to SKG and PGL. both are developing towns with many people working "office hours" so demand not that high

28_29_293 SG

but it seems svc 85 freq better than svc 39.

brotherchen1982 SG

No need to change bus or LRT to get to Sengkang/Punggol Very Happy

ZYX2005 SG

965 is already a well estabshed route from sk to yishun already. i don't see the point of 85. at most 85 can cut short to op as a like a 410 and op between sk and pgl new town .

iveco SG

85 to provide linkage between YIS and PGL. In the past, people had to take 965 and then change to 83.

Still, I would prefer SMRT to have a bus service between SBW and PGL.
