  2. From Woodlands, there is NO direct service to SBW Int but there's 962 to the Sun Plaza Shopping Ctr.

  Correction, there is a bus from Woodlands to Sembawang.
  
  Service 962 plies from Woodlands Regional Interchange to Sembawang, it's a loop service and does not terminate in Sembawang Interchange. You can hop on at Sun Plaza. =)

  For Sv962, you just alight opp Sun Plaza and cross the road then it is the int.
  For Sv859, you can alight at Sembawang Vista first so that you no need to let it loop inside Sembawang before reaching the Int.

  Route 856 also gets you there, but it only serves Canberra Road, and does not terminate or call at Sembawang Interchange. It can be quite a long walk from the nearest bus stop to Sembawang Interchange too.
  
  As for route 859, it does terminate at Sembawang Interchange, but upon arriving at Sembawang New Town, it first makes a turn into Sembawang Vista (the road to access Sembawang Interchange), but instead of going into the interchange, it calls at a bus stop at that road, and then proceeds to make a loop within Sembawang New Town. It then comes back to Sembawang Vista, and then finally terminates at the bus interchange.

  Route 859 stopped using that bus stop ever since it was diverted to Sembawang Interchange and made to loop inside Sembawang New Town... The only possible compromise is to alight from the bus at it's Sembawang Vista bus stop.
