57: the whole route! lots of SBST 'new' trunk services (mostly those introduced under the 2005 spamming of new services) have winding routes that are not meant to be taken from one int to the other, but provide useful connections between towns. 175 is another such example, but intro this yr. then once my grandpa took 57 from Bukit merah to bishan. he say take that service "tour half of Singapore".

I believe some long-winded routes are not catered for pax to travel from end to end. Its rather to cater to pax along different sections of the route.

922 lagi worst . The loop at segar , there's only one bus stop . Wonder why they build the busstop right in the middle of nowhere where theres not even a proper shelter leading to the bus stop. What i look forward to is , shifting the bus stop near to the Zhenghua CC . As far as i know , even taking LRT there and if its raining , theres no shelter.Originally posted by yong93:920 , nt say very long lar but make 1 big turn ... -
