SCs follow the inspector who tell them wat to do at the last bus stop... most SCs alite for crew rest, the prev SC will board n go off... some long haul routes juz off service n return to BB , YIS int
What is SC, if you meant the drivers of SMRT, it is SL(Service Leader).

Probably the Services will just make a loop at Marina and then back to the other interchange.

Take note that all NightRider & NiteOwl services will operate on all 3 race days (Fri 26/09, Sat 27/09 & Sun 28/09). Train services will also be extended until 1.30am.
Most Marina Centre services loop at either SMRT HQ or at Raffles Hotel, depending on their route.
The only way to get to Marina Centre area is the Bridging services. Alight at Stamford Rd (Capitol), walk to North Bridge Rd and board it.
For services looping at Raffles Hotel would have plied North Bridge Rd, transfer to the Bridging service at the Bras Basah Complex stop.
Is boarding and alighting still allowed at the bus stop for Suntec City on Nicoll Highway?

The diversion notice is there for a reason. And samtlk has done us (or rather u) a very big favour by putting up the links to the various diversion notices.

Commwealth Drive blk 92. There's no temp cabin or what down there. White Man will be stationed there. As S195 is full OCC controlled, theres no worry for the white man to adjust any timing whatsoever. The bus acts like a S36 now. Driver jump every trip.

Juz to inform, there exist another temp bus stop opp Concourse in the direction twds City, Nicoll Highway also has a new set of Traffic lights near Concourse not in operation yet... the centreroad divider is being made for vehicle to U -turn...
F1 diversion posters are up at varied locations, luckly now is a combined poster with SBS and SMRT services all included.
On sept 19, they tested the circuit ights in portions of the track. About 70 percent of the track was litted.
With much glee after dinner, i rushed over to Esplanade bus stop hoping the lights were on. Sure enough they were. joined by another bus fan who was alerted, we proceeded to shoot night shots free hand Hong Kong style.
However i found that i had to still use a longer shutter like 1/25 with f stop 3.2 to compensate for desto glow out. In Hk i found it easier to hit shutter speeds like 160. So i was not too impressed at the lights...lol
nevertheless not needing to use long shutter 1/4 or 1/6 to shoot night shots was a great expericne. I look forward to the next F1 season to shoot such night shots.
in fact,, i reckkon tonight or mon night, some folks cd do the same as we did on sept 19
ENJOY
ZYX
SMRT probably gonna earn more money manz..
