i would like 85 to come back. they are making people take the MRT or to transfer to 64/65 or something...Originally posted by medicheng:hougang is link by 132 to far east side of orchard area and NEL connected the Dhoby Gaut, but then how about the middle? taka and hereen shops? -
I remembered 1 said that 115 loading better than 275
But let's put the frequency into the picture
115 is 26 mins...
275 even more frequent (Esp bef 131 came into the pic)
So, 275 loading still higher as may have lesser passenger on average, but defintely higher per hour -
Service 275 can be withdrawn as service 131 covers it. However, I find 115 useful as it is the only way to travel from Hougnag Ave 3 to Kovan City.

ave 3 to kovan city can be cover by bus 81 or 113 along ave 1....Originally posted by SBS9889U:Service 275 can be withdrawn as service 131 covers it. However, I find 115 useful as it is the only way to travel from Hougnag Ave 3 to Kovan City. -
i am more like wanted 106 to extend to hougang. with 3 prime services to the town. i think nobody will complain that alot of buses are taken away.Originally posted by disappear:i would like 85 to come back. they are making people take the MRT or to transfer to 64/65 or something... -
On the first page, I have already said 106 & 147 should swap places.Originally posted by medicheng:i am more like wanted 106 to extend to hougang. with 3 prime services to the town. i think nobody will complain that alot of buses are taken away. -

What abt svc 181? Can consider as a gdwill svc? Think the 6 mths trial is over. Not sure will this svc be discontinued.

svc115 is also well past its trial date.Originally posted by IsIsTRD:What abt svc 181? Can consider as a gdwill svc? Think the 6 mths trial is over. Not sure will this svc be discontinued.
svc181 got loads from BNL.. it serves a rd which only has sv181 to serve the area only (JW ave 3)
sv68 also past trial date.
the only trial service to be chopped is sv401 (orchard rd) -
But based on the frequency, 181 quite behind the Boon Lay feedersOriginally posted by 105090:svc115 is also well past its trial date.

i mean 106, 107 and 147 all start from HG....Originally posted by iveco:On the first page, I have already said 106 & 147 should swap places. -
i noticed that ridership is still dere....i am sure 181 myt continue as diz bus was requested by the resident and the MP of that area....i read it in da Hong Kah Newsletter...if withdrawn, myt spark fury...now we dont want dat do we?Originally posted by sbst275:But based on the frequency, 181 quite behind the Boon Lay feeders

BNL is high density area.. got many ppl and buses coming endlessly.. 181 only serve a small area, partly covered by 243. i think SBS is prudent about the new services, thats why freq is low. sv48 also low freq.. sv88 improved after 6 mths, fm 12-15mins to 5-11 mins.. we wait and seeOriginally posted by sbst275:But based on the frequency, 181 quite behind the Boon Lay feeders
rem sv323? freq bet 10 - 30 mins.. always empty.(i took a ride b4)
sv268 at night at 15 mins.. also no good
Bt Merah feeder also above 10 mins.. -
haha, i like your idea...then confirm hougang central interchange no space during peak hours...wonder how bendy buses going to move around...Originally posted by medicheng:i mean 106, 107 and 147 all start from HG....

Well.. actually.. there is a bendy bay at the far end of the INT.. near the Entrance/Exit that side....Originally posted by bendy2003:haha, i like your idea...then confirm hougang central interchange no space during peak hours...wonder how bendy buses going to move around... -
Service 275 will be withdrawn as mentioned by SBST in a reply to a feedback.Originally posted by SBS9889U:Service 275 can be withdrawn as service 131 covers it. -
maybe convert it back to SBS?Originally posted by bendy2003:haha, i like your idea...then confirm hougang central interchange no space during peak hours...wonder how bendy buses going to move around... -
actually that is for 2 sbs buses...Originally posted by sBs_boy:Well.. actually.. there is a bendy bay at the far end of the INT.. near the Entrance/Exit that side.... -
before 181 was introduced the people in the area had to walk out to Jln Bahar & take 199 or 172.Originally posted by muziq bus:i noticed that ridership is still dere....i am sure 181 myt continue as diz bus was requested by the resident and the MP of that area....i read it in da Hong Kah Newsletter...if withdrawn, myt spark fury...now we dont want dat do we?
Don't think 181 will be chopped anytime soon...it just had its timesheet changed last week.
There's a rumour that 181 is going to be extended to Clementi too. -
Express 512 parks there when not in operation.. and can anyone explains the "bendy" bays in serangoon int? used by TIBS 106 before being chopped..Originally posted by sBs_boy:Well.. actually.. there is a bendy bay at the far end of the INT.. near the Entrance/Exit that side.... -
Actually.... itz like a Super Long Bus bay.. thats all.. at any time, it could park up to 3 buses..Originally posted by 105090:Express 512 parks there when not in operation.. and can anyone explains the "bendy" bays in serangoon int? used by TIBS 106 before being chopped.. -
erm how about the Hougang Ave 3 area the block 2xx that area oppositie the Defu Factory which have two bus stop. There is only Sv 115 to serve them to Kovan only if not must walk to ave1 like you say which is quite a distance to them to take 113??? I think that Sv 115 should extend their operating hoursOriginally posted by medicheng:ave 3 to kovan city can be cover by bus 81 or 113 along ave 1....
This is what I suggest: Everyday first bus 0645 last bus 2200 frequency waiting time still the same as you can see especially the during evening there are a lot of people who take 113 from Kovan which it is peak hours and after work and students out from school too. Maybe SBST can consider it. -
