Same bus stop along JW St 64 has 2 names - Opp Blk 662C(on Transitlink), Opp Blk 662D (on SBST)

I openly snapped the interior of the bus interchange on the first day. The Staff nor the TS doesnt seem to intervene with what i'm doing. They probably thought i'm one of the general public. -
What is it like? 238 care to show your snapshots, if you don't mind.

wondering if e int copes well during peak period or not..

1st working day morning
SBS had to deploy additional queueing stands for routes serving Jurong Ind Est namely 79, 246, 251
End on berths buses having problem to park. 2x Sv 154 buses spotted along e driveway parking
Sawtooth was just nice with 1 or 2 empty SBS slots. Lucky NTU svs aren't there for now.
Over at old int, some NTU students walked to the old berths only to realise 179 & 199's boarding pt moved house nearer to MRT station

"2. The new interchange, which can hold up to 60 buses with 31 boarding/alighting berths, at 20,000 sq m is the biggest integrated bus interchange built by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) so far."
52 lots only lor. zzz. maybe taking away the bendy lots will add 2 more lots to the tally.

i think some time back got ppl write in abt space crunchdunno which paper

evening update (~7.15pm)
end-on parking chaos continues due to lack of space. buses entering with passengers directed to queue for empty berths to alight by the "goodwill ambassadors".
witnessed a B10TL (didnt catch rego) sv154 boarding passengers from a 198 berth directed by another goodwill ambassador.
spotted sv 30 and sv 252 waiting for lots along the parallel parking area. poor BCs who had to sacrifice their break times.
a VO2x 252 had to reverse out immediately after disembarking passengers at 154 berth so that another 154 could disembark.
sawtooth side seem healthy. only saw 1 VO2x 193 parked along the parallel parking area.

No space, so park there? -
No, I don't mean PARKING there. WAITING there.

Let's have a mini game by guessing which will be the next aircon bus interchange. Each person will be allowed 3 guesses. I am guessing Clementi, Yishun for the time being. Still have not decided my 3rd guess.

Weird. Or maybe waiting to do downroute? -
I don't know

sawtooth is lucky still cos 180, 192 & 193 dun 'end' journey there there. there's like at least 2 empty lot at 1 time
But problem is when sch reopens and NTU svs move
