179 also quite tough during NTU peak hours, 0800 - 1100 and 1630 - 2000...
In the morning, the queue can stretch from the main road end of the bus int to the mrt station side. That's a 100m queue. Even when they send in 3 - 4 LO3X at one go and then open up 2 berths just for 179, also find it hard to cope with the demand.
Then all the people at off at NTU and the SCs have fun racing each other back to the interchange. When i took 179 at 1030 in the morning, there was a race of 2 LO3X and 1 VO2X.
In the afternoon the situation is the same, still have lots of people waiting at NTU most popular bus stop (outside Canteen A) even when 3 - 4 LO3X are despatched at one go. -

yes, i'm a tpjc student. yes, we r lazy to walk all the way there. moreover, 19 is more frequent than 81 at that time. sometimes, we walk ovr and den the bus sets off on its journey. for students who reach tamp int ard 7.00-7.05am, they go ovr n take 81. but aft dat, it's better to wait for 19 den to risk walking to 81 berth and end up missing it.
29 is full during the evening peak and almost half the passengers alight at the bus stop outside dunman sec.
svc 28 and 67 are expected to be fully-loaded even b4 it leaves tampines this fasting month..

Yes; and this is a common problem for BCs in such a situation. And there's also several other locations with such a problem, esp when there's many lanes and heavy traffic.Originally posted by carbikebus:Service like 82,107 from Hougang Ave 2 to turn right towards Upp Serangoon during the morning peaks,Even if you waved out your hand for turning some motorists still chiong beside you!
I feel that many motorists lack graciousness and manners to give way to public buses, esp in such a situation. But I always give way to buses whenever necessary; even in the absense of yellow-box. -
Why i say funny is because, there is a service 37 same route as service 19.Cos i saw TPJC student die die also wait for service 19, when service 37 arrive at the interchange.but there is a small group smart people wait at bus stop , where is service 81,37 and 19.whatever which service come first just take and go to school.Originally posted by sinicker:dont see why you see it funny...

As for service 28 for this fasting month,i 'm sure won't take it. cos all the buses will stuck at the Geylang Serai. -

i think u r trying 2 say that some students don't board 37 even when it is picking up passengers?
red the bus stop aft tamp int?
i do not know abt the students who wouldnt want to take 37. -shrugs- personally, if i'm at the 19 berth and the 81 BC switches on his bus, i would sprint there.
the bus stop aft tamp int mainly consists of students living in Sengkang/Hougang, Woodlands taking 27 and 168 respectively.
i do know of a chem tutor who takes the MRT to Tamp, but walks to the 1st bus stop aft the int.
