The parking lots at Sembawang Rd End terminal is only enough for one service (ie. 167). I don't think Tibs has any plan before the bus interchange at Sembawang is build.Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:maybe tibs can ploy a bus route from sembawang rd end to marine parade road .any comments or suggestions?
Yes, for Sv. 853 to terminate at Upp East Coast daily is much better, at least Sv. 13 would have some company.Originally posted by tranquilice:The parking lots at Sembawang Rd End terminal is only enough for one service (ie. 167).

Maybe you can ask Tibs whether service 853 can terminate at Upper East Coast terminal on all days instead of the current Sundays and public holidays.
Yah, and all the other rubbish right? In that case why on Sundays only?Originally posted by off_service:I once feedback to Tibs about sv 853 ending at Upper East Coast Ter. They say would take the suggestion into consideration when needed. The rest I need not say.
The demand for Sundays are quite high. Also for Public Hols.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Yah, and all the other rubbish right? In that case why on Sundays only?
Weekdays demand to Tanjong Katong and Marine Parade very low?Originally posted by off_service:The demand for Sundays are quite high. Also for Public Hols.
They might as well extend it on Saturdays as well what, since it's the weekend.Originally posted by tranquilice:Weekdays demand to Tanjong Katong and Marine Parade very low?
No difference what. It's not like they don't want passengers to take their competitor's service. They are ALL TIBS services.Originally posted by off_service:Tibs might have a reason for not letting sv 853 to Marine Parade on weekdays and Sat. Perhaps they want passengers to go Bedok to take sv 854?
Demand to areas after Marine Parade (ie. Bedok South Ave 1 and Upper East Coast Rd) is not high even on Sundays and Public Holidays. But in order not to inconvenience Marine Parade and Tanjong Katong passengers, service 853 can, on weekdays and Saturdays, instead of terminating at Upper East Coast terminal, why not loop at Siglap Rd like the rest of the Marine Parade services.Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:i think is bec the demand to east coast road terminal on weekays is not very high.but tibs is making a profit as they have so many routes .so i think they should extend 853 to east coast rd terminal on weekdays.
Yes, Siglap Rd is another possible looping point. Maybe even under-utilized Eunos via Still Rd.Originally posted by tranquilice:Demand to areas after Marine Parade (ie.
