New Boon Lay Air-Conditioned Bus Interchange

it would be crazy for 179A to be shortened to Pioneer station. every morning got mass gathering at Pioneer station MRT bus stop.
and it'll even be worse than your sunday night little india bus stop chaos.

well i've passed by the pioneer mrt station bus stop.... it is too small to even have a queueing berth. and having a queueing berth for the NTU community wouldnt go well with the residents there. maybe only the coffeeshop owner would welcome it.
even the temp boon lay int for now is small despite having two boarding berths, one at the proper berth and an improper one at the bend of the curve. -

At the previous interchange, 172 did use bendy at the end-on berth...Same goes for 187....So I think the berth would be like this (Still the same)
198 (Near to the entrance of the Interchange)
174/174e
157
187
172
178
154
30
But the new interchange has 8 bendy lots designated for use at the sawtooth berths...to me.. Oceane is right..
should be
30
154
174
178
198
another 2 i think reserved new service, or 181 maybe??

Oh...I'm sorry...i nv see the bendy lots.....but i think you forgot that there is still 180...Maybe they want to try to let 180 rest for a while before continuing journey back to Bukit Panjang....But Oceane may be correct with the sequence....I still hv to agree that 198 &157 will be at the far end nearer to the entrance....

yea.. 198 must be at the far end at the entrance like last time.. due to long Qs..Example:
Entrance/exit
198
157
174
--- (ex172)
--- (ex187)
178
154
30

I think they will just lump all the SMRT buses at the same area. Since i believe they have set aside a seperate lots for SMRT buses.

I dont think that they will let 180 rest before making a return trip. As the route for 180 is also kinda short, it would be a better option for them to loop the service back to Bukit Panjang. Even if they were to rest for 5mins, it will make a very big difference in the whole 180's freq and operation. Not forgetting that the 5mins break will actually make a very big difference in the way they going to squeeze their bendies in those limited no. of lots.

As for the 246 and 252 merger in which you mentioned just now, it needs to ensure that it passby Boon Lay station in its route so as to convienence the workers travelling between Boon Lay MRT and Chin Bee, Enterprise Road area.
hmm.. what if 79 and 252 merge.. become long distance..=) -
