  From 7.30am to 7.35am is 20min? Obvious that 2816B is late hence the bus's loading is heavy. You should be able to get hold of timings well since it's your service that you are taking to school.

  When this day arrives, I hope SBST would rename the blue plate svc 170 to maybe 170A or 170M.

  Actually i hope they make it 160M. the route is more of 160 actually as it comes from Kotaraya.

  about 35-50min. It takes around 20min from IMM to Orchard, and another 15-20min to go thru Jurong estate..
