I'm not surprised if there's 61A from Bt Batok-Ngee Ann poly

It will be good if there is 61A. I would say it should be extended till Commonwealth Dr as many of the people in the HDB flats there have only sv 61 as an alternative. I wonder why there is no other service apart from sv 61 catering to the high number of HDB flats along Commonwealth Dr - in fact no direct connection to EWL line also, only 61 to CCL.
969A from Tampines to Yishun only until 5.28PM. It should have been there at least until 6.30pm because the major queues at Tampines interchange start post 5pm and go upto 7pm.
Sometimes I feel SMRT does things to just show. What is the sense of introducing just one trip on sv 75A - don't have it at all rather than just one trip.

The one bus on 75A can do BPJ - Clementi for at least 4-5 peak hour trips.
Cwealth I thought got 195?61A to Ngee Ann I think enough for 4 trips in the morning use crossovers bendies/rigids.75A should have at least 3 trips

What's the point of 857A actually?should have 854A from Yishun to Hougang.Ppl board 857 from Yishun to after CTE what..Really useless big time.857A should introduce for buses terminating at Suntec as to avoid boarding for the last 4th buses

Might as well think that 854A replace 854E instead...
854E Yishun Bedok short cut leh not Yishun Hougang
SBST also 147A to New bridge road terminal. May be it time for 143A to loop at chinatown to toa payoh and 143B from jurong east to chinatown and help to reduce crowd from MRT.

170A can use non JB register bus?

This thread should be more inclined to updates instead of suggestions...any short trip suggestions are as similar to route suggestions.

I don't think you can enter the checkpoint when your bus isn't a JB Reg.
