Can't cut short . Many people whom I know need 854 to take from
Bedok to Lento area ( st Engineering campus / Apple / Motorola.
Whom depend on 854 for their daily jobs . It's not a small
number btw it's quite huge . Really hope that they abandon the plan
of "extending " sv25 .
Ya, cannot cut short. In fact, the link is very impt for ppl
commuting frm the entired stretch and alighting anywhere aft these
2 routes split. I also commute 854 oftenly, and as far as i know,
ppl make use of 25 and 854 to commute anywhere from bedok-eunos
area to hougang. Arguably, 25 and 854 (in my opinion) share the
longest stretch of the exact same route for the purpose to relief
loadings, and trust me there are ppl who prefer taking 25/854 for
long dist travels. That is why cutting it would
never be a good idea. Extension ok.
Yes i know you might say take mrt then transfer is faster for
these ppl, but rmb this: there are still a lot of ppl who prefer
direct than
fast commute, for the sake of convenience
