  Cos paxs who take svc 11 on normal day are working at that area = bus is usually empty during off-peak period & pax rather tak svc 16, lesser waiting time & get to more place for transfers
  
  Svc 11
  Svc 16

  Geylang Lor 1 terminal is SMRT owned thats why svc 62 didnt terminate there but loop there. Maybe in the future svc 11 kena handover to SMRT or maybe extended to Eunos if not being handover and if Sims Place close down svc 64 will be extened to Eunos

  Pertaining to the two retired terminals (the Sembawang Road End and the Admiralty Road West), the photos of these two terminals were now up on my fotopic, and as follows:
  
  Former Sembawang Road End Bus Terminal:

  Former Admiralty Road West Bus Terminal (Note: is the same batch of photos currently on my photobucket, which would be removed from my photobucket soon.)

  Then again why service 11 terminates there for a long time?

  Bouna VISA Ter? Give me your Matsercard
  
  Buona Vista and Ghim Moh might go if there's really one centralised BNV Int with the CCL opening. Sounds like the plan was on hold.
  
  CG Village: needs a rebuilding. Can't be gone because there's the leisure crowd to there.
  
  Kent Ridge: A bus stop terminal which has been refurbished before. The driveway was repaved about 3/4 months ago.
  
  MRC: Er, I thought it was a no-boarding/no-alighting terminal?
  
  NBR: Ya, an upgrading will be good.
  
  Queen St: It's too important imo to be gone. Think of the crowd of the SG-JB services..
  
  Shenton Way: Another no-boarding/no-alighting..
  
  Sims Pl Ter: Unless you want to amend this 64 to terminate somewhere else, nope.
  
  St Michael's: seriously needs an upgrading. imo, for the upgrading, a nearby grass patch can be converted to bus park and the buses start/end service at a bus stop.
  
  YCK: What do you want to rebuild for?

  YCK - a terminal with MRT
  bukit Merah - an interchange with no MRT

  Maybe when the Circle line opens at the Stadium, there will be no need for scv 11. Of course, the line will only open earliest in 2010, so that's still quite some time to go.
