  jams? which roads not jam in Singapore and which bus services are not affected by jam/traffic light etc etc? and u sound as if sv27 buses alway come at 20 mins frequency with 3-4 buses together.. it does happen but does not apply to every trip... 

  depending on where u want to go... there are way to transfer buses... u need to be flexible....

  if u r talking about packed sardines buses or missed buses, there are other services which have much more bad frequency and more packed.....

  I miss riding Leyland Atlantean on 361...those were the days.

  Okay, where to begin...

  Firstly, there is no need to insult of course. Okay I'm sorry for using hersh words, but all these are going out to show how simply selfish you are. I mean, why not YOU try to take 27 everyday during PM peak? 

  And now the frequency. Good frequency, but all bunched up! So people end up waiting nearly 20 mins for a bunch of buses! Okay so it's good frequency, but due to jams and all that the frequency has lost its advantage! Imagine if there are DDs, each bus can take more load, and less bunching will occur. And some of the SDs can be deployed to other svcs!

  Take 27 transfer 34? 53 to 89? Problem is, transfer to WHERE? Half the busloaf unloads at Blk 190C bus stop to change to other svcs, do you think anyone will want to take 34? And do you know how much time is wasted for 53 to 89? And BTW, 53 has severe crowding issues at CGA too. 

  Did I expect everyone to have seats? I will tell you, no. But would you like to be literally packed like sardines or worse still, miss buses? I doubt so. 

  SWTs exist for a reason.

  Why is SBST deploying DDs with short intervals? At Punggol Interchange, SBS3050L, SBS9532Z, SBS3004X all come in at the same time.

  Depends on how you see it. The loads for the services are quite packed during the evening peak... Same goes for SBS 3654 U being deployed on 130. In a more political view, there is nothing to do with WP... All becoz of PAP doing it's job... WP only win and nv show face one...

  So the new registered BSEP services seem for fleet addition. Wonder which SBST services still need WEG addition.

  Does not need fleet add. I said one slot of SD to DD conversion. Let's not make a big deal of it. Fleet add will be justified only if 43 is re-routed via Senthul to Punggol.
