178 breakup fantasy, once again:
178: Boon Lay - CCK (Merger with 308)
968: Woodlands TBI - Bt Panjang ITH
171: Yishun TBI - Bt Batok Int
Taman Jurong and Toh Guan residents get a (faster) link to DTL.
968 will allow 961 to skip the crowd-prone Woodlands Rd and run
express on BKE.
Downside is that modified 178 now bypasses BB completely (but
which has 66 up to JE and 171 up to BPJ; alternate transfers can be
made via 171/170 or 66 or 157/98), as well as possibly being too
duplicative of 67.
Agreed with comment above, bus ints may not have space... Routes
wise, 968 and 171 seem ok, the 178 detour into CCK Grove seems
quite winding though.
If 67 were to be cut (possible though unlikely), ur svc
178 can just follow CCK Way directly to CCK Int.
