sv 44: Changi Business Park Terminal <> Meyer Road (loop)
Changi Business Park Terminal >> Changi Business Park Central >> Changi South Ave 3 >> Changi South Ave 4 >> Changi South Ave 2 >> Changi South Ave 1 >> Xilin Ave >> Upper Changi Road >> Tanah Merah MRT >> New Upper Changi Rd >> Bedok MRT >> Bedok North Ave 1 >> Bedok North Rd >> Bedok Reservoir Rd >> Kaki Bukit Ave 4 (exp) >> Bartley Rd East (2 new stops) >> Kaki Bukit Ave 3 (1 new stop) >> Kaki Bukit Rd 3 (1 new stop) >> Kaki Bukit Ave 2 (1 new stop) >> Eunos Link >> Jalan Eunos (Eunos MRT) >> Still Road >> East Coast Rd >> Joo Chiat Rd >> Marine Parade Rd (Parkway Parade) >> Amber Road >> Mountbatten Rd >> Fort Rd >> Meyer Rd (4 new stops) >> Tanjong Katong Rd South >> Mountbatten Rd (exp) >> Amber Rd (and back again....)
** Some major routing parts are marked in bold
** Provides Bedok / Tanah Merah MRT connection to SUTD and Changi Business Park
** Provides direct MRT connection to industrial estate of Bartley road east and Kaki Bukit industrial north that do not have any service today. Will also connect to DTL3 at Bedok North, apart from providing EWL connection at Eunos & Bedok
** Connects Eunos MRT to East Coast Rd / Joo Chiat that do not have connection today
** Provides Fort rd/Meyer road with connection to Parkway Parade, i12 Katong, shophouses along East Coast Rd (no service today)
** Route is a bit long but connects important nodal points, institutes, industrial areas, malls, markets...
** DD friendly (might have to trim a few trees along Meyer road).

If you are serious (and I'm serious here), my suggested 150 can enter Boon Lay Int in both directions so that people will have 172/180/150 to choose in the interchange. Or it can be shortened to Boon Lay Int (which will have 4 less services, freeing up space), and 257's route will be covered by another service (e.g. 193).

Technically, Changi Business Park is not a part of Tampines so I doubt the rumored Tampines to Marine Parade service will start there. But good suggestion...

Some possible improvements:
- 253 can serve the lower part of Benoi Rd (at Keppel Shipyard
Benoi) in both directions (can consider new bus stops opposite)
before going on to Pioneer Rd / Shipyard Rd and loop at Tanjong
Kling Rd, and provide faster journey to Joo Koon.
- 251 will now continue along Pioneer Rd and skip Tanjong Kling
Rd / Shipyard Rd.
- 257 can be diverted to serve more of Gul area (Gul Ave / Circle
/ Dr / Way) before proceeding to loop at Pioneer Sector 2.
Currently its route is almost entirely duplicating 254.
- (Alternatively, swap these changes on 253 / 257, so 257 serves lower Benoi Rd and 253 serves the Gul area before going on to Pioneer Rd / Shipyard Rd).
- 256 can skip the last pair of stops along Benoi Sector and extend to Benoi Cres, Pioneer Cres, Tanjong Kling Rd (no loop) and Jln Samulun to ease load from 249.
- 258 can bridge the link from some of the industrial sub-areas to Pioneer MRT (e.g. via Kian Teck, as you've suggested) to divert some crowd away from Joo Koon MRT.
- 192, 193 remain unchanged; transfers to 192 can be made at
Benoi Rd (from Joo Koon MRT), that to 193 can be made at Pioneer Rd
Nth (from Pioneer MRT).
Maybe a good route

I see why you re-used the service number from array88, the sector from Jln Eunos onwards is exactly the same.
But good route nontheless. Not particularly helpful to SUTD students for MRT links, as 2, 5 and 24 do the job well enough already.Though I would consider combining this service with 60 to form 44 (Bedok - Meyer Rd via Kaki Bukit Ave 3) and 60 (CBP - Eunos via Bedok Reservoir Rd), if not for the need of a brand new service.

Possible extension to 983, as mentioned in an earlier post:

- CCK Loop [NS4/BP1]
- CCK Ave 4
- CCK Ave 5
- CCK Ave 6
- CCK Ave 1
- CCK Way

- CCK Rd
- CCK Way
- CCK Ave 1
- CCK Ave 6

- CCK Ave 4
- CCK Loop [NS4/BP1]
Rationale:Provides direct link between CCK Ave 5 and BPJ MRT, between CCK and Petir / Pending, between Fajar / Segar LRT stations and Beacon Pri / Greenridge Sec Schools, as well as an alternative route from Segar / Fajar / Bangkit to BPJ MRT, other than 920/922/972. Some residents (esp. at Segar Rd) will no longer need to cross over the road to wait for their buses. -

No the route from Eunos to Meyer road is not the same. Check again. Mine does East Coast Road to connect i12 Katong and shophouses to Meyer/Fort road and Eunos as well.
Also my route connects Kaki Bukit North / Bartley East Dorms and Industrial estates that do not have service today.
It connects CBP to Bedok/Tanah Merah and this link is absent as well.
By the way your suggestion on sv 60 is absurd... sv 60 serves as feeder to Bedok Reservoir from both Eunos and Bedok at a super high frequency of 04-05 mins from Eunos and 08 mins from Bedok (since 60A is there). You cannot extend it on either end as it will screw the main purpose of this service.

Revised post.
Projected most efficient Yew Tee - Bt Panjang service: extension of 177.
Brackets before road names denote the number of bus stops. Bold road names denote proximity to MRT stations.
--------------------------------------------------------------
SMRT Service 177: Bt Batok Int - CCK Cres (loop)
- [1] Bt Batok Ctrl [NS2]
- [1] Bt Batok East Ave 3
- [1] Bt Batok East Ave 4
- [4] Hillview Ave
- [1] Hillview Rd
- [7] Upp Bt Timah Rd [DT3/2/1]
- [2] Woodlands Rd
- KJE
- [2] CCK Way
- [2] CCK North 5
- [1] CCK St 54 (new stop at Blk 786)
- [1] CCK North 6
- [1] CCK Dr [NS5]
- [1] CCK North 7
- [4] CCK Cres (follow 302's bus stops)
- [2] CCK North 7 (skips Blk 619)
- [1] CCK Way (new stop at Blk 610)
- [2] CCK North 6 (new stop at Blk 601)
- [1] CCK St 54 (new stop at Blk 771)
- [2] CCK North 5
- [2] CCK Way
- KJE
- [3] Woodlands Rd
- [5] Upp Bt Timah Rd [DT1/2]
- [1] Hillview Rd
- [4] Hillview Ave
- [1] Bt Batok East Ave 4
- [1] Bt Batok East Ave 3
- [1] Bt Batok Ctrl [NS2]
During the first trial, 177 will operate during off-peak hours only (unless eventual demand necessitates otherwise). During peak hours, it will instead run these short-trips:
- 177A: (AM peak only) from Woodlands Rd (44051; aft Senja Way) to Upp Bt Timah Rd (44029; Bt Panjang MRT Stn). Approximate route outlined in blue & orange;
- 177B: (PM peak only) from Upp Bt Timah Rd (44029; Bt Panjang MRT Stn) to 44051; aft Senja Way) to Woodlands Rd (44069; aft KJE). Approximate route outlined in blue.
- After first stop, makes a non-stopping loop around Petir / Jelebu / Bt Panjang Rds before calling at the second stop at Woodlands Rd (Junction 10);
- 177C: (AM & PM peak) Bt Batok Int - Gombak Dr (MINDEF) - Bt Panjang MRT (loop). Equivalent to current peak-hour 177 route.
This suggestion makes the most out of a current service (including fleet, boarding berths, etc.), taking into consideration:
- (1) The urgent need for a Yew Tee - Bt Panjang MRT service when DTL2 opens;
- (2) The current unfeasibility of nearby interchanges (CCK too crowded, BPJ inefficient due to route drawback, esp. for the entire day), thus choosing Bt Batok as the most suitable interchange to start / end the main route, but utilizing Bt Panjang bus park as a resting point for peak-hour short-trips;
- (3) High demand between specific sectors during peak-hours, thus the introduction of fluid short-trips.
- (4) The need for more direct transfers to other buses from Yew Tee town (such as 61, 157, 506 etc.), thus the continuation to Bt Batok.
