  3 are from Tampines, 2 from Yishun, 1 from Pandan Valley. Service numbers should look quite obvious as to which goes to which town.

  That is by using the first approved first implemented method from the PTC list - just nice 6 from Sept 07 part.

  the boom in premium services reminds me of the time ard 2000- 2003 when SBS(T) and tibs started implementing lots of night services. wonder if these services will go bust one day just like when they suddenly cut down on the no. of night services...

  personally $3.60 is very expensive. the eariler premium ($2.70/ 3.00) seems just right

   

  many city shopper services also waste some time entering/ leaving the city like the moulmein road/ scotts road part (traffic + traffic lights) and rocher canel road part

  Sv 550/Sv 569 was very late on 11 apr (friday). Both buses were stucked on CTE due to massive jam at CTE/TPE. Saw this two buses around 500M apart in the jam at CTE at around 8.30am and the jam is clearing very slowly. Usually this two buses will pass by CTE( Amk Ave 5) at around 8.15 am.

  Quite rare that they update the e-timetable site on a Monday... Good.. can do up the schedule early :)

  If Woodlands were to have a Shenton Way Premium, no prizes for guessing the xover service(s)

  today, SBS976 was on Premium 549 with rectangular desto. think they feel that the demand is slightly higher, thus change to MK IV DM with more seating capacity, instead of MBO405.

  $3.60 just right for just a few pax on board for me...Bad publicity i think.....

  i agree that the publicity is inadequate. needs to be more aggressive to reach out to more people.
