Bus services to be amended for Marina Bay Sands Resort
-
NRs 1 and 6 to be extended to MBS
-
Wa piangz.
Just over e buzz for initial weeks make so much noise.
Is it want to reschedule e buses w/ longer running time and later amend after MBS crowd stabilise? Oops, later kpkb why reduce.
Go take a look to RWS88's schedule.
As for 502, u want ur fast link from Far East can. But end up e buses would get stucked at Orchard Blvd on e return leg. There are times b%&#dy drivers clog up e yellow box till buses can't even move off at certain cycle.

Its a long long bus stop.
Lots of bird droppings (from DOVES) near the bus stop due to the many trees surrounding the bus stop.
Buses are parked in the backyard. Cant see the buses at all from the boarding point, as they are covered up by trees. -

It totally under the flyover, like a racing circuit with very narrow turns when entering the terminal.Went in once early this year cos its my first time going there and didn't know must alight at the last stop, BC of SMB92U - 970 didn't notice me still onboard until he reversed into the terminal parking lot.

Thanks for the reply. I still dun understand, u say there is a backyard, where is it? And i found a map of the shenton way bus terminal on yahoo. but i dunno is it the new one or old one.

It is not cost efficient to demolish the old terminal when its underneath a viaduct unless the old terminal is used for somethign else without affecting the viaduct.I have answered your question.

No pic as I'm walking out from the terminal. -
Hope there will be some double decker deploy for Express 518. Quite a lot of people during peak hour.

Agreed. Standees are already crowding towards the front door when it reaches Suntec Conventional Hall bus stop.And 133 needs more double deckers. Demand has been increasing since re routed to Marina Bay Sands.

according to a psr bc, bndep dun wan to deploy ADD on 518 it seems.

Would have been better if 502 was amended to ply the opposite direction instead. (JW -->MBS-->orchard-->JW). Then there will be a fast 502-->518 combo from far west to far east.

Maybe its route has height restrictions? -

I suggest that some of the Wright B9s be deployed on 133.

i think a bus terminal at Marina South would be good so that bus svcs can be directed to pass via MBS and then terminate at Marina South. This include the ones that currently terminate at Marina Centre.

Highly unlikely. They just built a new Shenton Way Bus Terminal. They wun build something new so near the Shenton Way Bus Terminal.

Eventually Marina South would be developed. -
the new Shenton Way terminal.. buses now park in the sun.. no more shade
also, kinda pointless that buses calls at Marina MRT before going to the terminal.. should turn right back to Central Blvd and back to Shenton Way....
today also saw 133 having 90% load leaving Bayfront Ave (towards AMK)
and eventually, only 97 133 and 106 --- only 3 trunk services serves MBS -

faster to Terminal.Probably another issue is because if call Central Blvd gotta call at UIC Bldg.
