On second thoughts, 103 to Yishun Interchange via Seletar, Yishun Ave 1, Yishun Ave 6, Yishun Ave 9 to Yishun Int is not a bad idea at all. It can give people working along Seletar Airport a faster service to NSL with Yishun. Also connect Yishun Ave 6 w/ 3 new stops to Yishun Interchange (where the dorm & ITE college is). It will be a unique service connecting Serangoon, YCK Road, Jalan Kayu to Yishun as well.For people living along Yishun Ave 6 and 9 can take this bus and also transfer at Seletar Circus on TPE than going to Yishun Int and taking a service to the east.
and it could loop at Serangoon area instead, need more inputs!

giving a direct access to Jalan Kayu area as well as Sengkang West.

The Hispano "box" family - Hispano original, converted air con & MK I bendy bus .
Box, Box, Box. Must be damn lucky to get these 3 to meet, much less to talk about those without advertisement because more Superlions and MANdy~

Do you see more time slots added, frequency adjusted. If yes, it could be fleet add and could be BSEP.

Looks like a trunk version of 971E to me. Anyway, it seems like a possible DTL victimin a couple of years' time. -

I am actually happy with the route. It at least does not mirror 190. Those who take LRT, 920/922 to BPJ to change to 190, can now get a direct service from their homes to Orchard. -
6 November 2013 – A new bus service – Service 972 – will be launched from Sunday, 17 November 2013. The new service will provide better connectivity for commuters travelling between Bukit Panjang and the city. This is the 15th bus service launched under the Bus Service Enhancement Programme (BSEP).The new service will ply along Bukit Panjang Ring Road, Jelapang Road, Segar Road and Fajar Road before heading via Bukit Timah Expressway and Pan Island Expressway towards Whitley Road, Stevens Road, Orchard Road and Bencoolen Street. From Bencoolen Street, it will make its return journey to Bukit Panjang Town via Penang Road and Somerset Road.The service will enhance connectivity for residents in Bukit Panjang to key transport nodes such as Dhoby Ghaut, Somerset and Orchard MRT stations, where they can transfer to the other rail lines and bus services to reach their destinations.Vice President for SMRT Buses Ltd, Tan Kian Heong said: “Bukit Panjang Town is undergoing rapid development where many HDBs are scheduled for completion in the coming years. Service 972 will cater to these developments and serve as an additional option for Bukit Panjang residents going to city areas.â€�Bus Service 972 will operate daily (including public holidays) from 6am till 11.30pm.Passengers may contact SMRT Customer Relations Centre at 1800-336-8900 from 7.30am to 6.30pm on weekdays (excluding public holidays) or visit www.smrt.com.sg for more information on Service 972.Please refer to the attached poster for more details.Â

971E can be redirected to Lim Chu Kang when DTL2 opens. At least serve better quality
Or even BPS1 (Bus Parallel Service 1) can get withdrawn in 2017.
