Hello, smiley_volgren, hope you can clarify these...
1. So, is Marina Centre terminal considered a correct answer?
3. Tibs 925 operates everyday!!! Not just on Sundays & Public
Holidays.
4. Upper East Coast Terminal is located BESIDE Bedok Camp II, not
opposite the camp.
7. There are many Army Training Schools in S'pore, not just
one.
10. If you take 189A to Poly Marina, you have to walk long
distance!!! Tibs 176 is nearer (West Coast Highway).
11. Your question did not mention "U-turn", it just says "drive
around".
Others matters...
For question 14, I have also think of this answer. For question 15,
294 should read as 274. For question 16, this army camp still
exist. Did service 166 terminate here in the past?
