As mentioned by someone in this thread that there was
(probably) a need for another service to serve Sembawang Drive
(personally I feel there is a need too because of the 2 secondary
schools, CCHS North and Riverside), I have came up with an extended
route of 859. I am not sure whether it is feasible or not.
Original 859
Yishun Central 1, Yishun Ave 5, Sembawang Road, Canberra Road,
Sembawang Vista, Sembawang Drive, Admiralty Drive, Sembawang
Crescent, Sembawang Drive, Sembawang Vista, Canberra Road,
Sembawang Road, Yishun Ave 5, Yishun Ave 2, Yishun Central 1
[b]Amended 859 (version
1)
Yishun Central 1, Yishun Ave 5, Sembawang Road, Canberra Road,
Sembawang Vista, Sembawang Drive, Admiralty Street (loop),
Sembawang Drive, Admiralty Drive, Sembawang Crescent, Sembawang
Drive, Sembawang Vista, Canberra Road, Sembawang Road, Yishun Ave
5, Yishun Ave 2, Yishun Central 1
This route basically follows 962 route from Sun Plaza until
Admiralty Drive.
Amended 859
(version 2)
Yishun Central 1, Yishun Ave 5, Sembawang Road, Canberra Road,
Sembawang Vista, Sembawang Drive, Admiralty Link, Admiralty Lane,
Sembawang Drive, Admiralty Drive, Sembawang Crescent, Sembawang
Drive, Sembawang Vista, Canberra Road, Sembawang Road, Yishun Ave
5, Yishun Ave 2, Yishun Central 1
Unsure of the feasibility of this route because I am not familiar
with Admiralty Link and Admiralty Lane.[/b]
The first route seems more feasible. Service 962 serves a total
of 6 schools in Sembawang:
Canberra Pri
Sembawang Pri
Canberra Sec
Sembawang Sec
Riverside Sec
Cheung Cheng High
Even though some schools are not served along the route, they are
within walking distances.
