the old Sv 31 just make a loop at kallang park.Originally posted by ZYX2005:speaking of history, if i not wrong a certain bus 31 used to loop at kallang park
did bus 31 ever had a proper bus terminal at kallang park?
ZYX
speaking of proper terminal, actually more than 10 years ago, they built a terminal at Kallang Park (just beside the building which house the bowing complex), but it was never been used. There are boarding queues in the terminal and i think it have been demolised to make way for the MRT station.
i remember seeing this, when i was there watching the malaysia cup soccer.. -
No more bendies for sv 980....

Sv 980 when 160 days in the past was Adm Road West - Crawford St, now is Sembawang - Geylang. Both ends kanna amended here n thereOriginally posted by ^tamago^:More than 30 years as a fringe carpark and bus terminus, it will finally be gone, into history.
961 and 980's route will only get longer and longer. -
It's only a stone throw aways near the PA entrance.So 980 getting much easier towards SBW.853,961,985 just go staright to Boon Keng mahOriginally posted by ^tamago^:More than 30 years as a fringe carpark and bus terminus, it will finally be gone, into history.

Better not.Already 853 routes are quite hectic.I rather it loops at Lor 1 rather than terminate for 6-9 minsOriginally posted by Airbus330Captain:I hope 853 will teminate at Upper East Coast terminal on all days. -
who's tammy?Originally posted by TWS4793:Ah, that's no wonder why tammy said the routes will get extended. But then again, there's only one loner service in Sims Place Terminal. Let's see how the bus companies would want to direct the amended routes next time. -

Erm.. The SBST side also got one Tammy.. so.. we got a case of mistaken identity here?Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:tamago lah -
True to a certain extent. But should they extend Upp East Coast on all days, I sense that they confirm will have bendy busesOriginally posted by carbikebus:Better not.Already 853 routes are quite hectic.I rather it loops at Lor 1 rather than terminate for 6-9 mins

Access to East Coast from Yishun is pathetic as for now, and I suspect that the reason why 853 doesnt end at Upp East Coast everyday is because of the blardy PTC 2-to-1 guidelines
, and not because SMRT got no buses (they can deploy full Nissans on 853, I don't mind much). Obviously they're entering into SBS territory for 70% of its service (Ang Mo Kio, Serangoon, Potong Pasir, "maybe" Kallang, inner Geylang, East Coast, you name it).
Then again, I think 16 rigid buses for the existing 853 is already lacking. Factor in only 2-5 more buses for 853C, for a route that would be 65% longer than the weekday route, and you would have a long waiting time. I dont think SMRT has the ability to dump 30 buses as yet. -
853 on sundays is just like brothers with 13. The routes look really similar on the whole and vastly different if seen more closely.Originally posted by Yaimster:True to a certain extent. But should they extend Upp East Coast on all days, I sense that they confirm will have bendy buses ...

My suspicion is that majority of these outes will extend to Kallang Park.Originally posted by Yaimster:If the Stadium Interchange really opens ... then
Otherwise, my predictions ...
11 - Maybe would start from Stadium Link and loop at Kallang MRT, or literally take Bus 11 (WALK) la =).
175 - Terminating at Eunos Int might be a good bet
853 - I sense a major route overhaul here. Circle Line might be coming up soon and it has more or less duplicated the MRT route (Yishun to AMK, then Lorong Chuan to Serangoon to Potong Pasir). I guess it will be an expressway service (SLE->CTE->PIE->KPE) to Upp East Coast.
If they remove BSS 853 i will kill them.
961, 980 and 985 - Sims Place (+1 or 2 stages) or Eunos (+ 6 stages), but then again, it would be duplicating 67's route after Kallang.
11 & 62 can merge.
All Tibs routes start from Kallang Park terminal, and possibly 175 as well.
However, the idea of ending 175 @ SMP or EUN sounds like a good idea.
While they are at it, maybe 15 & 966 could be extended over there as well from Amber Circus.
In addition, Geylang Fringe bus terminal can serve as a bus park for routes 61, 853, 854, 961, 966, 980 & 985 rather than letting it become derelict altogether.
AMDEP can give up its allocation of 61, majority control of 853 & minority control of 854 to GLBP. WLDEP could relinquish its control over 980 and minority responsibility for 961 & 966, while KJDEP could let GLBP take majority responsibility for 985. -

IIRC, Geylang Fringe was the one of first park & ride facilities in SG. Others included that huge carpark @ Dempsey Rd where 390 once terminated.

Hey, what about extendeding 11 to Toa Payoh (though I doubt) by entering the PIE from Sims Way and then to Lor 6 Toa Payoh.

I like your ideaOriginally posted by musli_bar:Hey, what about extendeding 11 to Toa Payoh (though I doubt) by entering the PIE from Sims Way and then to Lor 6 Toa Payoh. -
Is the Geylang Lor 1 piece of road a rojak of a bus terminal, taxi refuel station, taxi/car park and bus depot?
Sometimes, I see a queue of taxis waiting to get refuelled and there used to be css buses parked there. -

You are outdated since the gahmen says Comfort/Citycab taxis can enter bus depots there's been a lot of chaosOriginally posted by MingFreeman:Is the Geylang Lor 1 piece of road a rojak of a bus terminal, taxi refuel station, taxi/car park and bus depot?
Sometimes, I see a queue of taxis waiting to get refuelled and there used to be css buses parked there. They buy cheaper diesel there
