SBST introduces another 3 new services!

iamgoondu SG

wow, it seems SbST is expanding their fleet. In such a short span of time, many new services were introduce.

Is time for SMRT to review their bus services, forget about your display 'thingy', introduce new routes and bring real benefits to the people under your 'care'!

It’s sickening, this thread is not about the press releases. It’s discussing the role of SMRT!

Anyway, since the 3 new svcs is going to be introduced, the bus fleets will be affected. It means that some buses will have to be deployed on the 3 new svcs.

SERVICE 59

1988: Bishan Jln Kayu
1993: Ang Mo Kio Jln Kayu (Loop)
1995: Took over by TIBS
1999: Extended to Sengkang, renumbered TIBS 866.
2005: Re-introduced svc (Bishan Changi Village)

sinicker SG

my bet is 59 will duplicate 2 frm the time 2 turns into loyang ave, all the way to changi village. the map on the cardboard is kinda straight.

I sure take 59 as it will be much cheaper than 506 and both makes no difference in the express sector. Its time SBST do something to 506, or it may end up like 501,502…

sinicker SG

i wouldnt be surprised if it is shortened to be a Jurong East - Toa Payoh service. ppl in Bedok would rather take 26 and in Bedok Reservoir, 8.

Ppl would take 26 from Bedok but most would DEFINITELY take 506 as compared to Sv8 @ bedok resevoir as 506 takes 15 mins to Toa Payoh compared to around 30 mins and maybe 1hour during PM Peak on Sv8

TIB529A SG

service 59 should serve Toa Payoh Lorong 6 instead of Toa Payoh Lorong 1.

sinicker SG

the service wanna run near to toa payoh mrt stn/int, so that passengers can make transfers.

I guess SMRTwill never wake up!
To them bus operations is a loss making business.
Sigh... Twisted Evil
