sbst275 SG Low demand rts Totally: 11, 35, 40, 79, 82, 101, 103, 125, 191 Off Peak only: 6, 90, 91, 92, 94, 103, 107, 119, 200, JIS, 354*, 400*, 403*, 506 Is this list correct? I would then go on to profitable list
freakybuses SG Seems like AMK, BIS and TPY services are still good.... anyway, just wished for a north west service from AMK and BIS.
gynobcard SG depends on the time frame you are talking about. some of the svcs have a high demand during peak hours, low at times. others have average demand throughout the day. then there are the super high demand routes throughout the day. IMO, totally low demand routes are 191,194, ex 378, ex 379, 401
sbst275 SG Look at my quote, it is divided 194 is high in demand on holidays. * means high on weekend or holiday seasons. 103 is low in demand? Once I get all info, I will revise it.
leeJZ SG 403 demand is actually quite good, comparable to 29, but SBST likes to screw its deployment up, lines are often quite long and once even overloaded trip.
gynobcard SG usually weekends and PHs, that's when pax go to PSR park for weekdays (correct me if i'm wrong), 403 serves as an alternative to 358 to Elias Rd
leeJZ SG The overloaded trip was on a Saturday late afternoon, but demand during weekdays is still reasonable because its the only service serving Pasir Ris private estate.
leeJZ SG 103 demand is not too good since the cutback from NBR, it serves only private estates off YCK rd and the Seletar camps, which do not have very high pax base.
sbst275 SG Good, I'm actually a person complaing to SBS on such matters 82 and 103 are on my list. They repiled to me in a stupid manner "82 and 103 although has a average demand, it is evenly spread (Passenger volume) and so it is FAC" "However, we will be reviewing the demand and take the necessary action when needed"
leeJZ SG 82 should infact be cut back to Punggol Int and convert to feeder. Serangoon - Punggol sector rather redundant. 103 has to stay, only service in Seletar Camps.
leeJZ SG Cut back to Punggol - Punggol Rd End feeder service. btw 97 also has low demand during off peak and weekends, not so for weekday peaks though.
service_238 SG Good in a sense that they stagger the freq so that more pax are in a bus. For weekday off peak, 403 demand is damn low.. I think pax would prefer taking 358 than 403 For peak hours, demand is rather average. No standing AFAIK Saturday Afternoons after 1630 hrs is BOOM time for 403. Demand is ok although it doesnt usually reach full seating cap. However, this service connects YCK Rd residents to places like Blk 953 Hougang, Yio Chu Kang Rd near Serangoon Gdns and also Serangoon MRT Stn. You must be nuts. 82 serves as a school bus and a inter-town bus service for the North East peeps. It provides Kovan - Hougang Ave 10 link, Kovan - Punggol Rd link and also Hougang Ave 10 - Punngol Rd link too. Many pax like to take 82 along Punggol Rd and Hougang Ave 10. I think it would be advisable for u to do some homework before u post.
leeJZ SG Kovan - Punggol got alternative service 136. Kovan - Hougang Ave 10 has alternative services 112 and 80. Hougang Ave 10 to Punggol pax can take service 62.
sbst275 SG There is only 82 serving the entire stretch of Punggol Road at least 95% from Kovan. PAC status should be reasonable or make it like 10 mins
