Svc 851, SMRT should covert these buses into fully non-aircon servicesOriginally posted by curio t:1. 851
esp if they use the single body one, not those bendy bus. aircon not cool enuf, and i check the display on top of the driver seat. it read 29'C. If he has any service orientation, he shld bring it down to a comfortable 26. How dumb.
2. 147
The ah-pek and ah-ma bus, a lot of old pple use this bus, esp via Chinatown to Little India. Also a lot of Indians using it. Smell assault.
3. 67
Senior citizen bus with loads of foreign construction worker. very smelly inside esp if aircon not strong using the single-body bus. So stuffy
Hey.. think before what you type hor.. WHo says that 147 is useless.. ?? If you bever board it doenst mean that it is Useless.. Every route is there for a purpose. And.... DO you Know that 147 is The only Service into town from Hougang other than 107.. ?? Alot of people depend on 147 to get to their destination. most people in hougang would rather take 147 than the NEL is because it saves them the trouble from transferring from one mode of transport to another mode of Transport. AND.... If you take away 147, Do YOU KNOW HOW MANY STUDENTS WILL BE AFFECTED BY THIS MOVES.. ?? In the NorthEast Region alone, 147 Passes by PeiCai Sec, ZhongHua Pri, Bowen Sec, XinMin Sec, XinMin Pri, Monfort Junior, Monfort Sec, Punggol Pri. And students from other school also depend on this service. And.. i dont think SBST WOULD W/d this service in the very first place.. Do you know that 147 is one of SBST's CashCow Service.. ?? I bet You DONT know this in the very first place.. If not, Why do you think SBST wuld wanna deploy 37 buses to this service in the first place ?? HAVE YOU EVER THINK ABOUT THIS OR NOT.. ?? Reason is simple.. Because this route is Ultra HIGH demand in a sense that even if you board this bus in the middle of the day.. lets say 3pm, you still can see that the 147 buses are usually 60% Full... Mind YOU.. 60% FULL DURING OFF-PEAK Hours Is not something which all other service can achieve.Originally posted by Tomas_Rosicko:Svc 851, SMRT should covert these buses into fully non-aircon services
Svc 147, This service is redundant after the opening of NEL. It has outlived its worth, hope SBST withdraw this service or truncate this svc from hougang central and terminate at serangoon interchange
Svc 67, the route is too long from tampines all the way to choa chu kang, the bus captains sure suffocate from the stench and the tiring drive. i think this service should terminate at Geylang Lor 1 terminal instead instead of proceeding to Tampines

In blue: 147 is my only direct bus to Chinatown liao, since 103 shortened to Serangoon Int. HG Ave 8 is quite far away from any NEL stations, even at Blk 400s and 500s also need to walk about 500m to reach Hougang station. There is still demand for 147.Originally posted by sBs_boy:Hey.. think before what you type hor.. WHo says that 147 is useless.. ?? If you bever board it doenst mean that it is Useless..

I totally agree with sbs_boy. Anyway, a grossly amended 147 plying from Hougang to Serangoon Interchange will be pointless.Originally posted by sBs_boy:Hey.. think before what you type hor..

off topic:Originally posted by Acx1688:sv147's frequency is quite ok in the early morning coz for one sv147, there's a sv147A following behind[at certain times only]
Hey.. WAKE UP.. 147A Ends at New Bridge Rd Opp Pearls center....Originally posted by 105090:off topic:
service 147A terminates at bencoolen street but i once saw one 147A at hill street towards chinatown, not sure if have any pax, but quite obvious the bus is acting just like 147 route
If you are very near the bus, yes, bus driver will stop for you. But if you are still a distance away, don't expect the bus driver to do so.Originally posted by DriftingGuy:Incl bus 200, the freq is 15 minutes.. during rush hour...
Driver is S.O.B.. see people rushing from overhead bridge at BNV MRT some more purposely close door drive off....![]()
Single decker... people jam pack like sardines liao still wont wake up idea..![]()
