  And yesterday got 2 buses kena liao. =) 1 on 107M (SBS 9311U) and...

  Like what ngjy22 said, CSS 0207K 853 SL drove into PIE by accident. No choice, exit at Toa Payoh New Town, turn into Toa Payoh Central, passby the Interchange, then use PIE to go back to Upper Serangoon.

  Before the diversion 2nd lane was meant for going straight, and most SLs stick to this lane because the 1st lane was for turning into PIE, and so 2nd lane would be the left-est lane to head onto Upp. Sgoon Road. But during the diversion 2nd lane become turn into PIE also, thats where many drivers were caught unprepared.

  Notices were already up at individual interchanges. On site, there are signs being put up by LTA informing which bus services suppose to go which way.
