Finally sv 904 is here.
Here is the link from SMRT website
http://www.mynewsdesk.com/sg/smrt/pressreleases/new-bus-service-904-from-18-august-2013-893468
Without being too critical - I found the poster to be very shabby. No stops properly listed, nor distances between stops given, nor is there a visual map to show the route of the service.
No wonder I saw new bus stops along WDL St 73
My sec school have been feedbacking to SMRT for many years, Only now they respond with a bus. Full MAN fleet like 860 i presume I wonder if 904 used up the 966/950 berth. Woodlands gonna be extra congested with 904 around

Yes WDL is going to get extra congested, but it was high time for a svc for Woodland Crescent and WDL St 73. In fact, it would have been good if the bus had looped at Woodlands View as well.
Not sure if SMRT should consider having some bus services call at WLDEP instead of WRI like sv 966 / sv 963 start from there as there is going to be huge space problem at WRI.
SMRT could also consider a roadside terminal.

If 904 use bendy then idk what to say esp during peak hours since 904 is a feeder and need high frequency. I think they shld have some service call at WLDEP though. WRI reminds me of Boon Lay now

Won't be at 950/966 Berth since NP Shuttle is there also. Most likely its at 902 Berth...

Or 858/903/969 berth there. Possible
quite looking forward to it...
The routes look promising..and yes Either Woodlands or Marsiling need a bus terminal to supplement WRI
Thomson Line

Interesting. Where are they going to find that much space to accommodate so many services. Thomson Line work started?

I dont think so, The plot of space beside Woodlands is still there. I walked there everytime from RP almost everyday.
Some may start from WLDEP maybe

Where? At least on the link that I pasted from the SMRT website, there was no map or stops listed. Even the poster does not have it. May be there is another link also?
Didnt see any new berth of 904 yet as of today

Weird, cos the station plan for Thomson Line is beside Woodlands Stn, and will be nearest to Blk 891C coffeeshop...

Lets say if its true, maybe Bedok style 1 big circle for that many svcs...
Let guess how many buses in 904
Let say 904 no bendies like 860
SMB3063J to SMB3071K can be perm (WLDEP/WRBP 904)

This month will have 67, 857, 860, 951E BSEP add, so minus 4 buses...
