I think feeder services and Townlink services should also have guides since a bus service guide is supposed to inform the route which a bus service travels anyway.

True but Townlink Services doesnt really need guides as they serve the neighbourhood and they can be covered inside the Town Guide instead of a service guide. Moreover these services are flat-fare.

Talking abt this,

by right a SBS bus should have a slot for trunk service guides, 1-2 slot for town guides and a slot for feedback form. However the town guide can be ommitted.

As for service guides, the town guide too have a list of services from the int eg TPY there will be 8, 26, 28, 31, 73, 88, 90, 139, 142, 143, 145, 155, 157, 159, 163 listed with sechematic details.

JIS buses are flat-fare and yet they have guides.

th1988 SG

Wait, 1985 what are you talking abt?

JIS are distance related services just that fares range from $0.58- $0.98 and $0.70-$1.10 for cash. If you don't believe, check SBS webiste.

tranquilice SG

JIS can mean Jurong Industrial Services (ie. 246, 249 and 25x) or former Jurong Island Services (ie. 711 to 713). I think he's referring to the latter.

oh sorry..then i remembered wrongly… Still, the main purpose of a bus service guide is not supposed to tell you how much you’re supposed to pay for a bus ride but instead it should be to help passengers be able to be sure of their journey.
