Subject: Feedback on Svc 985
Dear sir/madam,
I would like to make a feedback here on
SMRT 985. I have a suggestion on the route being
extended from Bendermeer Rd to Suntec City. The ideal
route would be as followed:
The route will remain the same from Choa Chu Kang Int
until Bendermeer Rd. After Bendermeer Rd, it will call
along the following roads:
Bendermeer Rd
Lavender Street
Crawford Street
Beach Rd
Bras Basah Rd
Suntec City
Due to the operating of the North East Line, SBS
Transit ( SBST ), had shortened SBST 82. Now, SBST 82
is operating between Punggol Rd End and Serangoon Int.
Therefore, there is no service between Beach Rd and
Bendermeer Rd / Serangoon Rd. There is a lot of
potential consumers who travel between Beach Rd and
Bendermeer Rd. Currently, consumers need to walk from
Beach Rd to Victoria Street to board SBST 133 in order
to get to Serangoon Rd or vice versa.
Although Beach Rd is served by 961 from Bukit Timah,
985 can also be served as an alternative route between
the two areas. I assumed that SMRT will believed that
there is already a MRT station nearby, which is
Lavender. Please share a thought on the elderly, how
can they walk all the way from Beach Rd to Lavender?
Therefore, please consider this suggestion. Thank you.
Regards

PJ, forget abt that... Because it makes the route very long and
that this way to recover Sv 82 is illogical as those ppl @ Beach Rd
majority goes to Hougang... Hence, this is no use...
PJ, you have to understand that recovering a old link will not
solve the problem like for what I said, there will still be
transfer... It is still best to ask SBS to recover the old Sv
82
