Should sv 64 and 139 not call at Dhoby Ghaut mrt stop on Penang road before turning left on Clemenceau. There is enough clearance to turn left, and it will b...

As of now (29 November 2015), there is NO information that bus service 241 will call at new bus stops.

241 alr called at that bus stop. They update the bus stop signs.

Sorry. I did not check before writing. I have -deleted- the earlier post.

I have checked the website of SBS Transit.

Yes, bus service 241 now calls at bus stop #27531, one of the two new bus stops along Jurong West Street 91.

Apparently, according to the timetable page of bus service 241 for that bus stop, bus service 241 started calling at that new bus stop since yesterday, 28 November 2015.

Somehow, this reminds me of that time in year 2007/2008 when buses started calling at the new pair of bus stop along Jurong West Street 64, and there was no press release to inform residents about it.

Surely st 91 residents are going to be happy. Don't know why it took extension of 99 to build that extra bus stop. The distance between the two stops is quite a bit. I expect 99 loading to be very high between st 91 and Joo Koon. For sure most would prefer to go back to Joo Koon and get a seat of preference in MRT.

Even in PM, if you just alight one stop later (3 mins travel time), you are guaranteed seat in the bus unlike 241 that could already come crowded from BNL Interchange. To add to it, people might change shopping habits and start shopping at Fair Price in Joo Koon instead.

I will check Joo Koon out once all services kick in.

LTA just released news that Sbs 3 will ply the extended pasir ris drive 8 after the realignment of pasir ris central from 12 dec 2015 onwards. Sbs 3 will skip the bus stop along pasir ris drive 1 and will also ply 2 sets of bus stops along pasir ris drive 8. Cheers. Thanks.

After seeing jurongresident's route suggestion of a new bus svc to serve Biopolis/Mediapolis, I went digging around google maps and found that bus bays have actually been provisioned along some roads, including Fusionopolis Way. They probably don't give a full picture of how new/amended bus svc could be like (the bus bays only cover certain areas), but just thought it's interesting to share.

Maybe it will be the extension of Svc 91 or enhancement of the Buona Vista/Ghim Moh services?

Please refer to the attached map for more details.

Information gathered from the above image:

All these new bus stops might be related to Service 983.

The estimated completion date (ECD) of the 3 BTOs around the pictured area is Q1 2016; so probably it's this month (between 10 Dec and 27 Dec / before DTL2 commencement) for the route extension towards BPJ.

I doubt this will be the extended route of 983. It will be quite winding to BPJ MRT. As I had previously mentioned, sometime in 2016 there will be a feeder service for CCK Grove/Ave 7 from CCK MRT.

Actually why not just amend 191... Since it doesn't have much demand anyway.

983 can still take the route of CCK Ave 6 / Brickland Rd / CCK Grove / CCK Rd. It's about the same distance as going via Bt Batok Rd.

Actually, considering the proximity of this estate to Bt Batok, why not introduce a new short trunk from Bt Batok (passing by Bt Gombak MRT, loop near CCK/southern Yew Tee) to serve it instead? In this way residents can also opt to avoid the ever-crowded CCK interchange and MRT to transfer at Bt Gombak.

Could it be extesion of two services? One maybe would be Svc 301 from Ave 6 turn right along Ave 1 and then to Ave 7 and Svc 983 go by Ave 7 and CCK Grove then using Choa Chu Kang Way and Choa Chu Kang Rd to reach Bukit Panjang?

91 in future will get extended to newer part of Ayer Rajah Crescent in future. Mediapolis folks and also walk to sv 91 bus stop in future. 191 demand should see some uptake w/ Mediapolis. But SBST will also need to add 1-2 more buses.

Yes that was a suggestion before to extend sv 990 to CCK via Bukit Gambok / Keat Hong to give alternate connection to Bukit Gambok MRT.

a tempory bus stop spotted built near the junction of bt panjang road and upper bt timah road. looks like some services will be diverted there from the bus stop at block 174

AJQZC SG

DT1 Bt Panjang: Exits on both sides of Upp Bt Timah Rd. Pair of bus stops fully upgraded and operational, though road works are still going on.

DT2 Cashew: Exit on road's east side only. Southbound bus stop still upgrading. No bus stop directly opposite, and considerable distance to the nearest stop (43091), without sheltered walkway.

DT3 Hillview: Exits on both sides of UBT Rd. Southbound bus stop upgraded, and 176/963/970 do not stop there. The exit on the west side does not seem to connect to a bus stop (to be confirmed).

DT4 Hume: Road works. Not sure if they are actually building the station, preparing for its construction, or otherwise. Bus stops not affected.

Some minor observances from DTL2 open house today:

DT1 Bt Panjang: List of bus services to other MRT stations (hereby known as "Buslist") somewhat incomplete, as 176/178 to BB, 176 to JE not listed. Buslist also doesn't include nearby stops along Bt Panjang Rd & Petir Rd.

DT3 Hillview: Northbound bus stop on west side of Upp Bt Timah Rd is still not ready. Based on Buslist, 176/963/970 may not be stopping at this stop. Buslist also doesn't include nearby stops along Hillview Rd.

DT5 Beauty World: Numbered bus stops are (1) (42091, Upp Bt Timah Rd), (3) (42151, Jln Jurong Kechil) and (4) (42109, Jln Anak Bukit). (1) & (4) are designated stops for train disruptions. Supposed new bus stop (2) directly opposite (1) is built but not ready yet.

Bus stops 42159 and 42259 along Jln Jurong Kechil are not included in Buslist, even though both are considerably nearer to the station exits than (4).

** Note that a right turn from Upp Bt Timah Rd (42119) to Beauty World Plaza is under construction.

DT6 King Albert Park: New bus stop along Dunearn Rd (42069) is not ready yet.

DT10 Stevens: Only exit along Bt Timah Rd. Passage to Dunearn Rd bus stop relies solely on unsheltered pedestrian crossing (traffic lights) at the junction, as there are no overhead bridges or underpasses built.

When I was at Beauty World, I saw the bus stop. So how would the bus go to that bus stop?
