As a resident of Bedok
North St 3 I'm used to walking to Bedok North Rd (Block 706), Bedok
Reservoir Rd and Bedok North Ave 3 for more bus services. Sometimes
I also walk to Bedok Interchange.
I wonder what is the frequency for 137. If I miss a bus and the
next one comes 15 minutes later or longer, I am not going to wait
for 137 to connect to DTL3. I would rather walk. Now there is a new covered walkway from Block 536
to Bedok North MRT, and another new covered walkway from Block 524
to Bedok Reservoir MRT.
I will probably take 137 between Bedok North St 3 and Paya
Lebar/Aljunied if I am sleepy and not in a hurry.
Well be happy you have a service and while you dont appreciate
it, a lot of people along Bedok North St 3 will appreciate the
direct connection to Bedok North MRT, Kaki Bukit industrial estate
and UEC, apart from an alternative to do same stop transfer to a
lot of other services at Bedok MRT.
It may not be of use to you but to many it will be a great value
add :)
