Alternative services are 51, 78 and 79 to Jurong East. The suggested service 285 will link passengers of the two estates to West Coast.Originally posted by xin1jun2:hi
i 143 shoudl be left as it is. in fact 143 links many residents there to JE and around west coast admending the service will cause an uproar.
also 143 still serves near the old jurong depot. and should stay that way. meanwhile 51 SHOULD be admended to serve its oriignal straighter route.

Where is the circuitous part of service 188?Originally posted by oliver_yuen87:I think that SBS bus routes are very circuitous and sucky, esp the newer routes. Look at 188. They seem to want more $$ by going circuitous routes. According to a report in PTC magazine, SBS has more services with too long and circuitous routes. BTW for Tibs, Express 570 was rejected bcos it "duplicates exsiting routes of express services". Any info on 570?
Bukit Batok area... I think CCK residents won't like to take 188 to Habourfront. Don't think it's quite convenient for Bt Batok residents to get to town? I'm so lucky to live in Bukit Panjang, where there's less than 5 stops to expressway on service 190,700, 960, 171, 187, 963Originally posted by tranquilice:Where is the circuitous part of service 188?
No, I don't know about Express 570.
You mean the circuitous part is Bukit Batok West Ave 6? Or West Ave 4? Don't think it's too circuitous, services 185, 187 and 989 ply almost the same pattern in the town.Originally posted by oliver_yuen87:Bukit Batok area...

But service 180 does not turn into Bukit Batok town.Originally posted by oliver_yuen87:but there are alternate services.. i can take 180 to jurong point instead of 187, whereas routes of sbs are ALL (exaggerating) circuitous
