Route amendment of TIBS Svc 175 from Sunday 27/02/05.

It will be renamed as Svc 975 and it will ply from Bt Panjang Int to Lim Chu Kang Rd End (Loop).

It will in turn skip the 6 bus stops along Upp Bt Timah Rd and will call at the pair of bus stops along Bt Panjang Rd (namely Blk 184 and Opp Blk 184) and will also not turn into Choa Chu Kang Int when travelling in both directions.

The reason given is that due to the road widening works on Upp Bt Timah Rd.

Volvo Olympian SG

BTW whats the route of the new 975?

[email protected] SG

It will be the same as Svc 175 except it terminates at Bt Panjang Int instead of Lim Chu Kang Terminal and it dosen't passes through Upp Bt Timah Rd.

SBS9611D SG

So we must board from the central stops instead?
