  1.  Whether Bus 969 or Bus 168 is faster etc .....[9 AM]

  2.  Then change to Bus 962 from Woodlands Regional Interchange to Northlink Bldg

  Northlink Building to Chinatown
  Take 962 to Admiralty MRT.
  Take NSL MRT to Dhoby Ghaut Station. Change to NEL (Chinatown Station).

  1.969 is still faster, even though 168 has lesser stops.
  2.Take MRT by taking 962 to Sembawang then change MRT.

  I tried 168, takes abotu 1hour to Woodlands from Tampines.

  my fastest was 35mins. slowest was 58mins.
  
  slowest was because he purposely slow for i dono what reason. the bus behind came into the int 2mins l8r.
  
  considering TS is taking it at 9am. he doesnt need to worry. they'll all be speeding. lucky if u get 9177 or 9580.

  As a Northern resident, I propose the following:
  
  Service 969 from Tampines Interchange to Yishun MRT
  Service 169 from Yishun MRT to Admiralty Road West
  
  Walk up the slope to the rear of Northlink Building.
  
  Disadvantage is that the slope to the building could be muddy at times.
  
  Total travel time would not exceed 45 mins (excluding waiting and transfer times).

  if you want 962 only, u can take 969 until after the gambas ave sector and cross the road for 962
