Anyways is service 3 and 15 also accepted? Since they also meet 3 times along the way. First is the UOB center bus stop, second is inside Pasir Ris Int, third is the road outside Pasir Ris Int.

The road just outside Pasir Ris int, where svc 15 drives through before turning into the Int and where svc 3 turns out of the int and follows the road before turning away.

Long time no ask :D
Ok, here goes:
Two SBST svc: A and B, have downroute buses (those that supplement the original buses, starting from a part of the svc, like 31 at Tanah Merah Stn sometimes) somewhere along their svc. Svc A's downroute buses have to pass through svc B's route to turn left to get to its bus stop to start svc. Same for svc B: It passes through svc A's route to turn right to get to its bus stop.
Question: Identify svc A and B, tell me their downroutes, and name me the bus stop they start downroute svc.
Hint: the turning junction for both svc is the same junction, and around the junction is a school and a building whose name contained a major bank in singapore.

Let me guess...
Is Svc A 27 and Svc B 34?
Svc 27 start downroute a UOB Tampines Center bus stop and Svc 34 starts downroute at Tampines Stadium.
Svc 27's downroute buses will pass through Svc 34 route before turning left to Tampines Ave 4 to start service. As for Svc 34's downroute it will be the opposite and it will turn right into Tampines Ave 5 to start service.
The school is St. Hilda Secondary?(which is a junction away

You must be staying in tampines rite? -

rite?Yup. But I actually knew about the downroutes when I found out that the best way to take an empty svc 27 bus and svc 34 bus is to wait at these stops. Best if the downroute bus come after another bus, then it will be quite empty afterwards(excluding svc 27 sometimes).
