Question for everyone living in NE area
-
After the launch of North-East line , will you take MRT or stick to bus ?
-
If i was late, i would take a MRT train! However, there is no train connecting from the north to north-east...Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:After the launch of North-East line , will you still take MRT or stick to bus ?
-
Hmm, mostly I would stick to taking buses if I am not in the rush of time.
-
But you can take 965 right? I think it will be hell lot faster than an MRT, and the possibility of an MRT Line connecting NEL to NSL is very slim now.Originally posted by Smiley Volgren:If i was late, i would take a MRT train! However, there is no train connecting from the north to north-east...

The Circle line will connect the Bishan (NSL) & Serangoon (NEL) stations in around 2008.Originally posted by Superbus:But you can take 965 right? I think it will be hell lot faster than an MRT, and the possibility of an MRT Line connecting NEL to NSL is very slim now.

depends on where i going
and whether they will tweak the existing service routes
if to north or east area then i stick to bus....
if going to town or west side then mrt shd be more convenient and faster oso...... -
I suspect more bus services will be withdraw by then .Originally posted by tranquilice:The Circle line will connect the Bishan (NSL) & Serangoon (NEL) stations in around 2008. -
i think i will take MRT if i am tired and want to go home fast
but if u had alot of time, i still will take bus
more chances to see gers mah
haha
cause i just live behind the hougang central interchange, so bus or mrt both can for me loh
haha
so happy that my parents choose this place, so good
so when its going to open??
-
It's going to open in June , not sure of the exact date through .
-
The opening of the NEL is either on end May or early June
-
dunno if there is going to be any more delays...........
-
I agree with you. It depends on the time intervals of Svc 965 and the routes connecting to the north must be improved as well....Originally posted by tranquilice:The Circle line will connect the Bishan (NSL) & Serangoon (NEL) stations in around 2008.
Yup Circle Line has began now. As for Serangoon connecting to Bishan, i wonder what will happen to Svc 156 if the train station is opened in a few years time? Perhaps Svc 156 might be withdrawn?
-
I think Svc 156 may be amended but not withdrawn. I predicts that those services which will be directly affected by the circle line are 24, 28, 70, 93, 165, 855 etc.Originally posted by Smiley Volgren:I agree with you.

Sv. 156 will unlikely be withdrawn as it serves schools in Bukit Timah area. It would be shortened to Bishan in my opinion to prevent duplication once Circle Line opens.
