  From AMK Hub to WRI
  
  1) Take 169 to WRI (direct from AMK Hub)
  2) Take 74 outside MRT Station to HG Int, then change to 161 to head to WRI
  3) Take 851/852/853 to Yishun Int., then switch to 858/965/969 to head to WRI

  851/852/853 up to yishun then switch MRT or bus...
  
  IMO, 169 quite slow with the traffic lights

  why not instead substitute 74 with 165?? 74 got more stops, 165 lesser.
  
  and, walk till the jubilee bus stop and maybe take 159 until hougang ave 4 and change to 161 to WRI?

  Fastest way is actually 138 transfer 926. But it operates only on Sundays on public holidays. Also you need to consider the waiting time at zoo.

  169 goes by a long way round. it goes to upp thomson then to yishun then to adm rd west then slowly to WRI. it takes abt an hr. but 161 the waiting time damn long. yet if lucky can get B9-TL or B10-TL

  as long as there are not many passengers and not many traffic lights going to red, its won't take too long.

  851/852/853 to Yishun Int but u have to walk from AMK Hub to AMK Ave 6.
  Take these 3 services to yishun town and take 858, 965 or 969 to Woodlands.
  
  I guess this should be the fastest since u r waiting 3 services instead of 1 so waiting time is cut and besides, this route is the shortest as compared to 169 route. (Around 16 stages in all as compared to 27 stages for 169)
