these 3 only stop along the main road/ bus stops, not right into the campus or deviates from the original route..Originally posted by brotherchen1982:95A, 95C & 96A to NUS campus.
95A : to Lower Kent Ridge Rd (National University Hospital)
95C : to Lower Kent Ridge Rd (Kent Ridge Hall)
96A : to Kent Ridge Crescent (NUS Raffles Hall)
for 96A, the media once said because people always forgot to alight at NUS final stop for 96, so 96A is there so that the BC will kick everyone out and they wont forget to alight -
Maybe NTU should have an express service like 902, probably 179e? Serving Boon Lay Int directly to all stops in NTU, skipping Jurong West?
-
Nah i think the current 179 is better , no need express , ffw's etc..Originally posted by SBS9889U:Maybe NTU should have an express service like 902, probably 179e? Serving Boon Lay Int directly to all stops in NTU, skipping Jurong West? -
Yeah!Originally posted by SBS9889U:Maybe NTU should have an express service like 902, probably 179e? Serving Boon Lay Int directly to all stops in NTU, skipping Jurong West?
I would love that! The pro drivers on 179 should be able to do 10min rounds! The fastest I've seen on the current 179 route is 19min... -
Impossible to be from 960. Some service 960 bendies do morning cross-over for service 962A, then back to 960.Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:Maybe one of the feeders , the bendies...or rather 960 , which is fully Bendies
Sv 902 might be using Bendies -
You think Boon Lay Int not crowded enough???Originally posted by SBS9889U:Maybe NTU should have an express service like 902, probably 179e? Serving Boon Lay Int directly to all stops in NTU, skipping Jurong West?
If you don't know, there are 2 queues lines for svc 179 at Boon Lay Int;
One for 6am -10am on Mon - Sat only.
One for daliy use.
Don't forget there are some NTU students living along Jurong West St 63, Pioneer Rd Nth... -
Ok, so today is the first day.
12m 0405 were used
TIB 474 Z
and
TIB.....?? i forgot which bus i was in...
It didnt follow the 10 min interval...
the timekeeper had trouble controlling the crowd...
and he took a picture of the bus and the amount of people queuing... probably to send back a report of it to SMRT...
bendies would be good though.
and i manage to see a bus enthusiast waitin outside the interchange snappin some shots...
Oh well, 169 was super crowded as well...
the load is massive for 902.. the in-charge and the transit security had to help in makin sure an orderly boardin process...
i though the bus is a uni-point to point service?
shouldnt it be one direction then?
but i saw it pickin up passengers though...haha -

Yeah, I know about that special queue. Perhaps 4 or 5 Sv179 permers can be transfered to that service (179e) during AM Peak so that those students who do not leave in Boon Lay/living in the east and northeast could get to NTU faster.

Service start already SMRT still dun haf press release, or is it SMRT dun want the general public to take 902 as RP students are already enough to make SMRT very busy?

Maybe Sv 902 is only for RP Students.Originally posted by SBS9889U:Service start already SMRT still dun haf press release, or is it SMRT dun want the general public to take 902 as RP students are already enough to make SMRT very busy? -

I dream to have a much faster service from Yishun to Nanyang JC. 853 takes about 35-45 minutes in morning peaks. Ahhh !!!
-
But after the MRT extension... then BNL won't be crowded...Originally posted by brotherchen1982:You think Boon Lay Int not crowded enough??? -
20 perms can do 179e in the morning lah... With the other 1 perm and 3 xovers do 179...Originally posted by SBS9889U:Yeah, I know about that special queue. Perhaps 4 or 5 Sv179 permers can be transfered to that service (179e) during AM Peak so that those students who do not leave in Boon Lay/living in the east and northeast could get to NTU faster. Otherwise, by the time they wait for 179e, 179 itself is already faster...
In the (later) morning peak (8 - 10), not many will get off at intermediate stops anyway... Almost everyone is heading to NTU... -
Later SBST receive complains on 179's frequency too longOriginally posted by stooper:20 perms can do 179e in the morning lah... With the other 1 perm and 3 xovers do 179...

Timing for service 902 has been changed...

now its 0730 - 0900... -
Aft MRT extension, Boon Lay Int/Stn will be more crowded than usual...Originally posted by stooper:But after the MRT extension... then BNL won't be crowded...
