Reminds me of 16E though.. haha.. maybe peak trunk which charges normal fares..Funny part is S128 isnt up there and its introduced already.
So when is the S48 extending.....
-
hmm....i sense a connection between peak hr 16 & off peak 41
170e... haha, an idea i've been backing for quite long
-
I would rather pay $2.40 for a old Soon Chow MAN 16.240 than 170e.
-
Did they mean service 116??? Cos 16 is weird. Or maybe is short working trip 16?
117.... Rather where is runs! SBST going to SMRT territories! I think should be Sengkang / Hougang to Bukit Panjang / Choa Chu Kang (Usually is one, I hope its Bukit Panjang where reliancy on bus services is much higher?) Hope so! Can cut down travelling time by half from NE to NW.
-
Woah! 170e, SBS is going nuts. Unless they are doing it on weekends as the demand is quite high there. I sense some Mk4s are going to be JB Registered soon.
Quite interesting makeover of the land transport here, especially buses. Sv 48 extended to run from Kent Ridge Ter -> BNDEP?? Ok, I can see they want to help compliment the sole Sv 17 there.
Well, we'll tighten our belts and buckle up for twists.

I'm pretty sure Sembawang Town has been conveniently left out again.

Whoa.........

not very sure of 16 though, but heard 117 is going to Bukit Batok via Serangoon. From where, I dunno. Most probably Hougang ba, since the 11x services are based there. But this service wont be implemented anytime soon. SBST now lack of bus captains siah! 170e should terminate at Kranji and most probably not crossing over to JB. 41 I think will most probably based within East Coast area, like 115.. short route. 115 will be withdrawn is expected since it has so many other alternatives, but 68 o.0... poor industrial workers... -
Who you heard from? About 117?
Why Bukit Batok! NO! LOL... So many SBST services there liao.... 66, 157, 174, 174e, 506.... and 160.... Time for Bukit Panjang to have one. No SBST trunk services for years.....except 160 and 170 if you want to include Ten Mile Junction bus stop.

From a friend lorz, but I dunno whether reliable or not lar, so have to wait until news from SBST. -
My guess:
Amendment of 76 to ply along Serangoon Nth Ave 1
117: Hougang or Sengkang to Bukit Panjang.
Just a thought.

I think Svc 76 Extend to UEC / BNDEP / Bedok.
-
68 should start from Bedok looping at Tampines Ind Pk.170e sound ridiculous.117 Serangoon to Bt Batok,Hmm Good.Reminds me of old 106.

Not so dramatic...just some slight amendments within Serangoon ba, perhaps amended to ply Serangoon MRT station since CCL is opening soon -
117 to CCK :D
-
ffw 170e - Queens St to Upp Bt Timah or vice versa?
-

i think ffw 170e may be abit like the blue plate 170. like ftjj0298, i think 76 will be extended to Bedok. then soon, no more bus services looping at siglap link.
