  Hi,

  I just got a position in ALPS (Airport logistics park of Singapore).

  Does anyone know the shortest time to reach ALPS from Sembawang?

  I am aware about the Woodlands transport from Tanah Merah, but however, it only operates at some particular hours, and the position require me to work Overtime...so......i wouldnt be able to make it for the woodlands transport.

   

  Anyone got any suggestions? =(

  Thanks

  ALPS as in the one along Tampines Ave 10? If it's that, then I suggest you to take 969, and change to 72/27/268

  No, I think the place SBS8033D mentioned is around Tampines Giant area.

  Cheers.

  Ok, according to this site, it's at Changi Airport there de.

  The Tampines ave 9 one is APS, not ALPS.

  So, I dunno which part of Changi Airport, but i am sure is either

  1)169 + 858
  or
  2)169 + 969 + 19

  the walk from the nearest bus stop at CACC to ALPS is more than a kilometre. you are better off working your time around the Woodlands Transport shuttle, taking a cab or ask for 4 wheels.

  Hi everyone,

   

  Thanks for you all reply! ^^

  ALPS Ave is locating around the Changi Area there...the location i will be working at is  51. ALPS AVENUE s (498783) , and i stay at Sembawang Close near to Sun plaza.

  I found out various route such as

  Sembawang to Woodland Stn-> Woodlands Int Bus 168 to Tampines Int Bus 19-> Airline Road-> Woodlands Transport Shuttle

  Sembawang mrt to Yishun Mrt-> Yishun Bus 969 to Tampines Int bus 19-> Airline road-> Woodlands Transport Shuttle

  I guess the above will be the better way >.< and does  you guys know if entering ALPS Avenue by Taxi, is there additional charges?

  Or do you guys know if there is any premium bus service that travel directly to ALPS Ave?

   

  Thanks alot for the help!

  take a cab in and you will know the answer. 8) ask your colleagues on the first day for any premium buses please.

  take 859 or 856 to yishun int, den 39 to loyang ave, cross and take 9 or 19. alternatively alight at pasir ris dr 1 for 89, or take 969 from yishun ave 5 after 859/856 to tampines int and then 19.

  oh yeah after 9/19/89 alight at airline rd and walk in to ur workplace.

  I'm not sure of any Woodlands Transport ALPS shuttle from Airline Rd, but there's one from Tanah Merah MRT. There's 2 long queues there every morning and ALPS shuttle is one of them.

  You can try taking 167/980/859 to Chong Pang change 969 to Tampines. If you live near Sembawang MRT, take it to Woodlands change 168 to Tampines. Thereafter, take the train to Tanah Merah.

  I do not think there's a premium service serving that area. If you work late into the night, please call a cab and claim from the company if you can.

  Good luck
