Route Suggestions (Part 7)

For the areas already developed - like Lavender, Jurong and Bedok - if there should be, there would already be.The new bus routes at the new areas - like Pun...

I would rather keep 174 as a fast link between Boon Lay and Bukit Batok. Demand is quite high between these towns, and 157/187 takes a significantly longer time, while EWL requires additional transfers. Amending 174 to Bukit Batok West and Tengah would increase the travelling time by a lot.

There are also dorms along Jurong Rd, although they might be gone when developments in Tengah take place.

Dormitories are being built at Jurong Road so as not to worry about shortage of workers when the construction takes place at Tengah. It began in last year or this year?

Where do you suppose the dorms would be shifted to? Inside the future estate itself?

Don't be silly as workers dorms are temporary and will be shifted away. By the way, the dorm Jurong Lodge 1 off Jurong Road is closed.

Service 174 would be the most ideal together with amendment to Bukit Batok West new town.

174 actually is not a bad option. Yes it would increase the travel time, but I don't expect it to be significant increase as it will just cut through ave 6 and ave 8 (so 3 new stops, replacing 1 stop along BBT West Ave 3). This way fast access to Boon Lay and connection to Beauty World (DTL).

Other option:

178 is made Jurong East <> Woodlands and cut through BBT west new town. This way it can have direct connectivity to Jurong (EWL) and Hillview (DTL).

49 covers 178 from Jurong to Taman Jurong. 258 extended to loop around Corporation Place via Corporation Rd.

929 (similar concept to 129)

Woodlands Square
Woodlands Ave 7
Woodlands Ave 4
Woodlands Ave 1
(Woodlands Ave 12)
(SLE)
Lentor Ave
Ang Mo Kio Ave 6
Ang Mo Kio Ave 5
Ang Mo Kio Ave 4
Ang Mo Kio Ave 3
Ang Mo Kio Ave 1
Bishan Rd
Braddell Rd
(Loop at Bishan St 11)

Advantages:

Provides faster connectivity from Yio Chu Kang MRT Station to Woodgrove.

The car growth is limited at 0%, therefore we need this route badly.

This route can be launched well ahead of TEL opening, somewhere in December 2018?

Nice route but should terminate at AMK. I don't see the point of looping it around Mayflower estate when there are now new services 860, 71 introduced. Moreover, your route will duplicate 71 all the way to Bishan. Unless you mean 71 will be replaced by 929 ?

I would have it terminate at Bishan if it merges with 71 as you don't want another situation like 966.

402 is interesting - it reminds me of 11's extension. However, I'm not sure if such an extension would be deemed necessary, as we already have 11 and 158 in Tanjong Rhu, plus an upcoming TEL station.

Hmmm that is a good point though....

Maybe wait till new developments at Tampines North is completed then can have a new feeder to serve that area, possibly merging with Service 292 to form a Townlink service. Service 127A then will be renumbered to 292A serving the current routing.

Route Extension of Service 966 to Shenton Way Ter and Route Amendment in Woodlands

Service 968 Woodlands - Pasir Ris

Only thing I've got to say - the routes are very long.

Sv966's route extension isn't needed in the near future since TEL Stage 4 is opening by 2024..

966 Woodlands-Eunos.

JKYY SG

966 Woodlands-Eunos.

But if that happens, the link between Eunos MRT and Marine Parade would be lost -> Even higher loading on Service 15 (+ it goes via Telok Kurau first)
