Which bus routes can be further improved?
Can resume 502? Hougang Ave 8 is some distance from NEL, taking
bus and change to NEL will cost a lot.
Which bus routes should be amended? Are they
too long?
171 too long, but neccessary for people in Bukit Panjang to get
to Yishun.
Are there duplication of bus services?
77, 106 and 7 along Holland Rd.
Do you think any bus services should be
withdrawn or increased?
No need.
Are staggered bus stops a good idea?
Not a problem to those who come to Orchard Rd very often. Those
people who seldom come to Orchard Rd might get confused or lose
their way.
Are there too many or too few bus services serving Orchard
Road?
Quite ok, Orchard Rd too congested during Xmas and NY
period.
Should some bus services use only double deckers?
65, 143, 7, 14.
Do other bus services need bendys?
167 ( To serve people in Upper Thomson and Sembawang,
alternative to 162.
Are major residential areas well-connected to Orchard Road?
No, Hougang Ave 8 does not have a direct bus to Orchard Rd, due
to NEL.
Pasir Ris also no bus to Orchard Rd ( Is 518 operating for the
whole day? )
What are your experiences taking the bus to/from Orchard
Road?
Centrepoint bus stop should be common bus stop for all buses,
but it will be prone to congestion.
