Similar to service 52 plus an extension to Boon lay. It will be better if it can be extended to AMK.
My suggested amendment for 77.
This new service 77 will provide additional links from Bt Batok West Ave 6 and East Ave 6 to the city. Currently, Bt Batok West Ave 6 only has 176 and 188 as the two trunk services.

Which do you think is better? Currently there is a lack of linkage between Bishan/AMK with Yishun and the only way is by 851/852/853, which sees fully-packed buses during peak hours. Other than that it is only MRT and MRT.Suggested Depot Control: AMDEP

2nd one would be better. Too many buses off Marymount Road heading to Yishun.
But still, I doubt this would be feasible. 3 buses is more than enough for "linkage" IMO~ :)

Only the first part and the ending. Service 52 turns into PIE from Lornie and exits at Jalan Anak Bukit, then travels via Clementi Road and turns into Commonwealth AVE West. So the suggested "Service 20" takes the non-expressway instead but meets Service 52 again eventually at C'wealth AVE West. -

What's the software you're using to create the route details?
How about merging both Services 95 and 200 together?
Amended Service 95
Direction 1:
Buona Vista Interchange > Holland Drive > Holland Ave > Commonwealth Ave > North Buona Vista Road > Buona Vista Flyover > Lower Kent Ridge Road > Kent Ridge Cres > Clementi Road > Kent Ridge Bus Interchange > Clementi Road > Pasir Panjang Road > South Buona Vista Road > Buona Vista Flyover > North Buona Vista Road > Buona Vista Interchange
Direction 2 (Hence numbered 95M):
Buona Vista Interchange > North Buona Vista Road > Buona Vista Flyover > South Buona Vista Road > Pasir Panjang Road > Clementi Road > Kent Ridge Bus Interchange > Clementi Road > Kent Ridge Cres > Lower Kent Ridge Road > Buona Vista Flyover > North Buona Vista Road > Commonwealth Ave > Holland Ave > Holland Drive > Buona Vista Interchange
This should help reduce the confusion between the two services. However, the implication of having this amended service is that there will be more SWTs, especially since the service has been well known for having the highest number of SWTs. -
What about extending 100 to Kent Ridge? From Ghim Moh:

Looks like a hybrid of 74, 165 route to Clementi plus extension of 52.I think demand for this svc is not really high as there is already 74 and 165 plying from AMK to Marymount Rd or to Holland Rd and Farrer Rd. However, this service provides a new link from Jurong East to Farrer Rd and Holland Rd and AMK.

Hmm. For service 46, there is already a service 48 that brings commuters from Marine Parade, Upper East Coast to Sungei Road, Bukit Timah Road. There is also 196 that goes from Marine Parade, Amber Road, Mountbatten Road. However, service 46 provides a unique link from Upper East Coast to Nicoll Highway and Mountbatten Road. In addition, it also provides a link to the east from Novena and St. Michael's estate.
On the whole, it duplicates quite a fair bit of 48 and 196.
My suggested 151 is to ply Hougang Ave 1 instead of Hougang Ave 3. Many commuters utilised this service to get to educational institutes. So, by bringing 151 into Hougang Ave 1, residents don't have to walk a fair distance to the main road Hougang Ave 3 to take 151. Besides, there are several bus services that goes from Hougang Ctrl to Hougang Ave 3 like 51 and 87.

North East Line cannot reach City Hall area directly, need to switch at Dolbhy Ghaut so bus service wins over this.
Depot: Bukit Batok area. Not a SBST nor SMRT service.

I think it's a good idea. Punggol does need a trunk service to the city. But who's operating it if it's neither a SBST nor SMRT service?

It's a good idea, but 147 seems faster from Hougang to New Bridge Rd.. so it might not be that attractive to Punggol and Hougang residents going to Chinatown, but the link between Punggol/Hougang and Adam Rd/Lornie Rd is good. :) -

Own concept company lols...
But given the situation, SBST and SMRT should run the route together. SBST will be in charge of the majority of the operations, like 70 percent. Planning and scheduling for SBST, and deployment and monitoring by SMRT. Then the companies can cooperate on other details like which company put how many buses etc...
