  For SMRT, 61, 67, 75, 77, 106, 184, 187, 811, 945, 950,, 960, 961 and more services are quite packed and healthy. But its a shame that 961 can't use bendies due to the sharp turn from the terminus to Lorong 1.!
  
  I think for least-travelled SMRT bus it has to probably be 922 and 178! and i think For SBSt i think is 506{trerminal is only near houses and the camp, not near shops} and 57

  You sure 506 peak is that terrible?
  
  If least-travelled for SBS Transit I will nominate 3 services.
  1. Service 57
  2. Parks 408
  3. Parks 409
  
  Add more: CT28, 11, 333 (peak no filled to brim one ah), 922.
  
  Is 852's loading good? I don't find its loading decent at all due to its routing. I can only see Yishun - Bukit Timah sector unduplicated. Anyone has info about 852?

  Seems that you have to experience high loadings on Svc 506 and 178 before. Same for 57. Have you tried waiting for Service 57 at Shenton Way ? Answer shld be a NO. Seeing empty at Terminating Points doesnt mean that the particular service got no demand at all....

  Yeah, but even then not many people take it till all seats are filled up. Only during peak hours this isnt the case, but even that i don't see the bus having more than maybe 5-10 standing passengers.

  Erm.. Might not be the case. From what i see, Peeps from Serangoon Ave 2 are the ones who benefits this xtra service which brings them directly to the doorstep of Serangoon MRT. Also for Lor Ah Soo peeps. They now have addition service other than 53 to get to Serangoon MRT. Not to mention the additional links from Bedok / Hougang / Serangoon into NYP. Good news for the students though.

  High loads means what? Packed till the door or what?
  
  Sample for Service 52:
  
  Weekday PEAK: Full Bus, except Holiday.
  Weekday OFF-PEAK: Average, a few standees. (JE to Toh Guan, BSH to Sin Ming)
  Weekends: Average, a few standees. (JE to Toh Guan, BSH to Sin Ming)
  
  This kind lah.

  Definition of high loads? >80% of the max pax for a bus?
  
  If I do not rmb wrongly, there is one article published by The Straits Times quite some time ago that in average, the buses are less than 30% filled.
  
  If this is true, I can imagine the percentage of ppl in Singapore using cars.

  iirc last time minibuses were used for some feeder services...maybe can introduce it for low ridership services to cut cost.
