* bus in front = 08 mins, bus behind = 10 mins
* Overall loading quite poor, even though sv 38 was ahead of sv
12
* Loading in Bedok South - Bedok Interchange surprised me a lot.
Maybe 229 called before but wasn't evidently seen so there must
have been 3-4 mins gap
* Seems those going to MRT prefer to do Tanah Merah as expected
with 12, 38 and 47.
* 38 can be re-routed to do Tampines-Changi Airport via Simei
town, SUTD, Changi Court, PIE given current route between Simei and
Bedok is duplicative to sv 12 and there is also sv 47 now. Since sv
229 is there, no people will get affected.
38 can extend to Changi Village via: Changi Village Rd, Loyang Ave,
Loyang Way (Tua Pek Kong/LYDEP, Pasir Ris Dr 3, Loyang Ave,
Tampines Ave 7, continue route to Simei.
