thing is, it's better to off service back using direct routing than to incurr buses to make a revenue trip back -

it depends on the trade-off you get from off service back to CCK/BP vs erratic frequencies on the return leg. The reason for 190A was to facillitate faster turnaround of its buses back to CCK but as the am peak progresses it would make sense to terminate at new bridge rd then off service to cck.Lets say the forward trip is 2-4min and the return is 10-12min. Means for every 4 buses, 3 will turn back to do another forward trip. If the forward trip is 5-6min and return is 10-12min its only every other bus that turns around.

Actually I dun see the need for 190A seriously, hard to board the bus still implement SWT to 'limit' passengers

What about in the evening? Maybe change it into peak-period service. -
PM peak headways for basic services tend to be worse than that of AM peak, so I don't think PTC would approve new requests by PTOs to divert resources away for basic plus and premium services.
