anothe new bus-stop at Hougang St 91 (outside Hougang Sec).The new pair of bus stops at Hougang St 91 (another one will be on the other side of the rd at blk 925A) will be for City Direct 660, starting 23 June. A basic bus service may be introduced or amended there in future, though unlikely.

Hi mr BusAnalyser, I think you get it slightly wrong. Sbs3688Y mentioned new bus stops at edgefield plains. The stop points you mentioned are all at edgedale plains. Edgefield plains and edgedale plains are 2 different routes. Greendale primary school and blk 138 are obviously at edgedale plains. After Punggol drive (Damai), it must turn to the bus stop at edgefield plains. If it crosses oasis LRT as what you mentioned, you are advocating edgedale plains. So sorry. Roads are all wrong. Cheers.
okay. Yes I got it wrong, but I think the route I am proposing makes sense, so LTA should introduce in future.

Hi mr SBS3688Y, another 2 new bus services are in the pipeline! Hip hip hooray!
New bus route for one stop along HG St 91... seems unecessary.. why not just edit 116 to ply this route.Unless, it is a service from Buangkok Link via st 91 and st 51/52 to Buangkok MRT, then it would make sense to create this new link.

Hi mr 201911, oh yeah you are right. I just check city direct 660 which has this bus stop along hougang st 91 indeed. Yes if the bus stop is built, it gives more compelling reason for LTA to get other bus services in. Cheers.

Interesting - people living here get City Direct but not a regular service to MRT. -

Hi mr BusAnalyser, the bus stop is for city direct 660. But in future, new links may be created. At least we can be happy now that the bus stop is up, all other possibilities are much easier to implement. Cheers.

7 more services will be going under BSRF from next Monday...
SBS Transit = 51, 154, 292 and 354
SMRT = 189, 853 and 962
Everyone's wish for 51 has come true!
I don't understand why 292, 354 and 853 are getting this though... -

That's the question. Can the manpower take it?

Thats another issue,Question is those two incumbents really need to be shaken off else they tend to have "Big Head" attitude especially in their stronghold territories.

Hi mr carbikebus, I beg to differ. I think sbs transit has done a fairly good job in the transport situation in Singapore. I do not think they have this complacent attitude, even in their stronghold territory. Even if sbs transit has this attitude, nobody should begrudge them because they have really done a good job in my opinion. The same is not true for smrt. Cheers.

Grow up.I'm just asking a question to what user carbikebus said... You have no need to get so fussed up over my post. Sorry if I have offended you by mentioning your name in this manner. I know I'm younger than you, who are an adult and have more knowledge than me. I acknowledge that fact. But, please don't be rash in your actions. You can rant about bus issues here, but don't insult anyone here, because you will have only one thing, an enemy. This hobby is to enjoy, not to hurt.
I shall not argue with you, because we should get back to the main topic of things, instead of arguing all the time and ruining this thread. The End.

OK, thank you. I thought he was refering to the users here, so I got confused and asked him that question. Thank you for the explanation! Apologies for the message.

Sorry, I'm not sure... I got this info from the newspaper. Well, I guess that there are not many complaints by passengers on 169 and LTA feels that SMRT is managing it (and 169A) well, so they haven't included it in yet... However, who knows they might just put it in too in the next round of services under BSRF?

i feel that Sv 113 should be included in the BSREF. Sometimes bus can come too early and too late during peak hours. Especially at it's looping point you'll never know when it will arrive.
