Superbus SG Any indication of the proposed Causeway Link service between Larkin and Jurong East via Second Link?
SBS9818A SG Does that mean CW1 will be extended to further down Bt. Timah Rd? That will be a true competitor of Sv. 170
sbst275 SG Maybe, but CWL is not willing to use ez-link payment. What's more, 170 is also facing compeition from 171 or 67 as well. Even my friends will not take this bus as they are anti MY over certain issues.
SBS9818A SG Even if they don't accept ez-link payment, it will be a good alternative to Sv. 170, I rather ride new MAN buses than a Mk III.
sbst275 SG But you have habits on 67 on certain parts aft Bukit Panjang. Also, people avoid as we would rather support our services. Just like there are few takers to Senai Airport as in the news paper report "Only 20% of 600,000 passengers in Jan - May are Singaporeans"
SBS9818A SG Supporting our services? Singaporeans always go for price. Very soon they'll warm up to Senai.
sbst275 SG Hao Si Zai Hou Tou Don't forget, Changi will be home to Tiger, Valuair, AirAsia Singapore* and that Quantas JV with that Budget Terminal. *As I don't think it may make it as of the shuttle bus matter More budget airlines here in future, so? IMO

^tamago^ SG yeah. like a really posh place out of a abandoned bus terminal. but it only have an information counter & cafe inside. very empty & white. has a countdown timer for next senai express bus.
^tamago^ SG yes. and probably the real competitor to 170 lies in the express bus CW2. the only other svc offering this is SJE.
^tamago^ SG 911 takes the shortest distance to reach the checkpoint. 911's load balance facotr for checkpoint sector will not be affected so much if a fleet of non-Bendies took over. and there wun be much need of short trips by O405G's in the peak hours for St 11 residents. 911 buses are one of those chosen for this new service.
sbst275 SG Further more, it is temporary shelter. By Senai Airport may be downplayed by SG Govt as what I have said earlier
Superbus SG Yes, I have known about that news for quite sometime now, but I was referring to "physical" indications. As what the others have mentioned, guides for the upcoming Larkin-Queen St service have been published. So I was wondering if the guides for the Larkin-Jurong East service was published too.
^tamago^ SG the only indications i have are on the CW1 buses (approved bus route) and at Larkin Terminal platform for CW buses (the one nearer to news stand, not those parked far far away at Area C) (signage on platform stand about Larkin-Queen St service). sad to mention that jurong east or anything about jurong was not mentioned on the signage. anyway, where are the abovementioned published guides available?
