when CCL fully ops, maybe ridership would be betterbut tis CCL3 might create a big hole for SMRT.. alrdy it's bus and taxi ops in e red

Should I say it's almost impossible to board north bound trains for some trips during evening peaks? Lol...

Bus operators should had expected it and amendment will be taking stage by stage so a mass confusion among aunties won't occur. Expect SMRT share price to rise :D

there wun be bus svs changes to CCL3.. cos svs like 22 or 24 serves e heavy corridor Paya Lebar, it's just they pick up less pax at S'goon New Town sideI believe SMRT's profit would plunge for the next 5 yrs

i see. i heard the last bus at bishan was just 5 min after the last train, so i guess it is safe at bishan -

I would think the point of the CCL is for connecting all our current lines together without having to meet the (current) main interchanges...so the transit passengers...

if you read e commentary, e mood is tat CCL3 wun be tat bad vs NELbut seeing e current load esp if it remains aft 2 - 3 weeks, it's in for trouble

of course you cannot think out of e boxppl at NYJC, SGSS can ditch 22, 24, 133, 135 for e MRT to get to AMK or even Yishun by ditching 853
Sv 13 say from Boon Keng to Bishan, now there's e MRT
Sv 153 is S'goon -> Toa Payoh.

but I wonder did wat I saw at 3pm over e student's travel pattern works for peak hrs since e NSL is alrdy so packed

Seriously, what you've mentioned is just based on students travelling patterns. Do u have actual figures to support ur claims ?Train to BIS then NSL to AMK ? I think bus is faster than train.
Nobody will take CCL > NSL to Toa Payoh from Serangoon. It simply makes no sense at all. Not only you have to make transfer and having to squeeze, u have to pay more. Most of the Serangoon Residents who go to Toa Payoh would only need to pay 69c.
