Hello,
Good to see that all who tried got most answers correctly.
Let me elaborate more on the questions which some of you may have doubts.
Q1. Most of you got this question correct. However my question is what is the ONLY service connecting these 2 roads?
Q2. This service is actually not a Townlink service, but rather the route it plies is similar to that of a typical Townlink service, ie, connecting 2 or more parts of a town under 1 service number. A clue: This service in eastern Singapore have since been withdrawn.
Q6. The question refers to 2 different areas in Singapore. Each area has 4 MRT stations serving it.
Q7. This service was made popular through a song in the 80s.
Q8. This question has more than 1 answers.
Q10. I have checked with my father again and he confirmed that it is popularly known as Jembatan Merah ONLY. A clue: It wasn't in Ang Mo Kio.
Good Luck!!
Cheers and warm regards -
