In the first place, it was the MP of that area who made noise citing that the residents there had lost a link to CCK and some other parts. SMRTB had no choice but to reintroduce 985W at that point of time.Originally posted by carbikebus:Finally,Even the 985 SLs think its redundant to have W,Wasting time only.FYI its not SMRTB decision,Its PTC & LTA who approved,SMRTB just send the suggestion by public.Must wake our stereotype mind before accuse

Cant say much,But before the W start,I normally see 10-16 mins wait for off peak which is quite ok for services plying PIE given its quite new at that time.But after this W starts all go haywire,Sometimes even 20 mins for peak hour.Hopefully the freq are just like last time if not even betterOriginally posted by sbst275:So expect a more reliable schedule?
