there is really not much ppl working in Jurong Island. only
715 serve there currently, and its frequency is no good, many ppl
also have buses or cars to the mainland, so a light rail may not be
practical.
due to [b]low density crowd movement is another
factor.
even the upcoming joo koon station, may only be maximised during
peak hours and trains can even afford to call there every 15 mins
or so and the rest turn around at boonlay.
again, there is low movement of ppl in these 2 areas mentioned
during off peak hours, and traffic flow is a one directional peak
period manner, like the NEL.[/b]
Best that SBS Transit could operate the old 711, 712, 713 buses
to JL again. Frquency for these buses is OK in the past as I got a
record on them.
