  Hi I want to know more about the bus services serving Holland Road esp 7, 75, 77, 105, 106, 123, 174...
  
  Is the Holland Road coridoors a busy one since it's not (yet) served by MRT? Are the buses in and out of Holland Road and Napier Road well-used?

  Not many people alight along Holland Rd compared to those passing by.
  
  So far I'll say it's well used, but there's no direct buses linking it and Adam/Lornie Road.

  From what the TS posted, he seems to be referring to the Botanic Gdns side.
  
  Holland Rd near Holland V has higher commuter traffic.

  TS should change the road name as Napier Rd instead of Holland Rd to be specific as Holland Rd encompasses from Holland V that side up till Botanic Gdns.

  Yeah was on Napier because he gave 123.
  
  But you're right, many people alight at Holland V on 165.

  Mythbusters of bus services along Holland Road
  review conducted by Yx (laughers)
  
  Myth or well used? as above question?. BUSTED or WELL USED to be answered for each service ?
  
  service 7
  service 7 once terminate in this area, the old CMPB. service 7 now serves clementi residents to orchard rd. -most direct way is thru holland rd, WELL USED
  
  bus 75 is fast between grange rd to clementi rd and bt panajng. good for shenton way workers. drivers drive very fast along holland rd thus provide express service WELL USED
  
  bus 105 serves commonwelath area and to orchard rd. even used to usse double deckers. WELL USED
  
  106 serves bt batok to orchard. express along Holland rd . WELL USED
  
  123 only serve for queensway area to orchard doing what old 14 did. low demand due to its poor freq and drivers drive very slow. - AVERAGE
  
  bus 77 serve to toh tuck area for the '205" people gg town. use holland rd fforr quick ride - WELL USED
  
  bus 502 passing by onli dun stop. but using holland rd as express bad idea - BUSTED
  
  bus 174 laately demand drop - students prefer 171 i guess plus 174 drivers r slow n buses r old - BUSTED
  
  therefore in conclusion. most services WELL USED but not to go the area as people seldom go the area.
