Sembawang Bus Interchange to start operations in November

cck_190 SG

The Sembawang Town Council's newsletter states that the new interchange will start operations in early November.

Sembawang Bus Interchange is now unveiled to the public as the hoarding surronunding it have been brought down a few weeks ago. The concept of the interchange is about the same as Bt Panjang Interchange. The colour of the interchange is somewhat brown/orangey colour.

The interchange is located next to Sun Plaza along Sembawang Vista. However, do note that the Control Office is not fully completed.

Any idea what bus services will terminate there?

TIB1171R SG

I would appreciate it if some people here have at least some decency to acknowledge the source of this news.

SBS9816E SG

Say… where do I see this post from? It seems to be information without the statement of the source. What an example being exhibited down here..

BluBlur SG

I thought cck_190 already stated the source is from the Sembawang newsletter?

off_service SG

If he can show me that he has one. He can't bluff a Sembawang resident here right?

BluBlur SG

I have picked up one in my letterbox, but it got lost. Will try to ask my neighbours also.

Superbus SG

What we are trying to say here is that the thread-starter blindly posted this information from another web group, which is prohibited.

And as if that is not bad enough, he went on without acknowledging the very person who posted the information way before him.

I suggest the thread-starter rectify this at once and make amends.

Zilchster SG

We wouldn't know if you got all the information from the other forum, would we?

Anyway no one accused you of lifting all the information directly from the other forum. TIB1171R just merely asked you to acknowledge the source that's all. Don't be too sensitive. Why get so worked up, unless you are feeling guilty?

CCK_190 aka Busfreak989,it would be good if you stop whining and just get a life.

don't think i get all my info from the other forum,okay

I remember seeing a post from FS that said this:

It was mentioned in the Town Council newsletter that the interchange will operate from November..

This is what TIB1171R said:

For those who cant wait to see how Sembawang Bus Interchange will look like, you can now take a peek at it as the hoardings surrounding it have been taken down weeks ago. There is a 4-service berth ala Upp East Coast Ter and two 3-service berths ala Bt Panjang Int erected so far.

Hmmm.......You go figure it yourself. Mr. Green

And by the way,I recomend taking out your signature.We are not crappers around you.We are Bus Fans.I hope that you would put more sense into your posts and signatures.

Hmm, if 167 is to operate from SBW interchange, what about the missing sector between the MRT station and SBW end? Another situation like 82 @ PGL point.

Sekali 167 becomes YCK-SBW end loop service a la current 82 since got 980 and 162 cover most of its route.

off_service SG

These few services are most likely to be terminate at the Int. I read somewhere before regarding the development of Sembawang new town, feeders will be introduced. I shall not elaborate more as I do not exactly remember the content, as well as I do not have the document proof.

CAIX SG

Hey, that's great !! Looking forward to the opening... But will there be feeder services ?

off_service SG

Service 167 cannot be a Sembawang / YCK service. Don't forget that 167 gets pax from Shenton Way, Orchard and Thomson area as well.

Perhaps you can try taking the service again and tell me your views again.

SBS9810X SG

But is it possible to seperate it into 2 diff svcs?One from Bt Merah - Sbw and one from Sbw-Sbw rd end.

off_service SG

This is the most likely outcome (amendment) to 167. It is more cost effective to let one bus, or at most 2, to run between Sembawang Int and Rd End Terminal.

Just imagine, letting the whole fleet of 167 buses going to Sembawang Rd End when they can save resources.
