What will happen to HG South Services when it close down?
-
dun understand why e govt is doin this.. it might cause a lot of inconviences for ppl in hougang... keep changing...
-
But this type of arrangement is not implemented at all interchanges. It is mostly implemented at interchanges with few services.Originally posted by service_238:It seems like they're rearranging the berths according to the routes they initially take after they leave the Interchange.
74/147: Upp S'goon Rd (North), Hougang Ave 8
89/325: Hougang Ave 10
27/161: Hougang Ave 10, Ave 6
107/153: Upp Serangoon Rd (South) (Even though 107 goes to Hougang Ave 10 & Ave 2, it'll converge with 153 when it hits Upp S'goon Rd)
165: Hougang Ave 4, Ave 8 -
Hougang town, like any other town, need only one interchange. So Hougang Central interchange will be retained as it is in the town centre while Hougang South interchange will be closed.Originally posted by oceanic:dun understand why e govt is doin this.. it might cause a lot of inconviences for ppl in hougang... keep changing...

I think the announcement will be out this weekend.

It can't be next weekend as it'd be too rush already. Go look out at HG South soon!Originally posted by tranquilice:I think the announcement will be out this weekend. -
I thought SBST/Transitlink will announce online first before the posters are displayed?Originally posted by SBS9818A:It can't be next weekend as it'd be too rush already. Go look out at HG South soon! -
No, for SBS, it will be on the same time
As for T Link, it is a bit slower, the CNY extension came out late on CNY Eve. -
They'd normally try to coordinate it.Originally posted by tranquilice:I thought SBST/Transitlink will announce online first before the posters are displayed? -
So sad, that interchange has been there for so long.

Let me review my predictions...Originally posted by service_238:Currently, there's 4 trunk services and 5 feeder services left in HG South Int. 51, 62, 132, 151, 321, 322, 326, 327, 328. Of which, one of them, 62, was proposed to extend to Punggol on Sunday 7th December. What will happen to the rest when it closes down in Mid-Feb next year? Here's my speculation of the amended routes of the remaining services.
Service 51:
Hougang Central Int, Hougang Ave 10, Hougang Ave 2, Hougang Ave 3, and continue via existing route.
Service 132:
Hougang Central Int, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang Ave 2, and continue via existing route.
Service 151:
Hougang Central int, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang Ave 2, Hougang Ave 3, and continue via existing route.
Note: Svc 51 & 151 can either swap their amended routes or both of them use one of the suggested amended routes.
Service 321:
Hougang Central Int, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang St 21, Hougang Ave 1, Lor Ah Soo, Hougang St 11, Upp Paya Lebar Rd, Lor Ah Soo, Hougang Ave 1, Hougang St 21, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang Central Int.
Service 322: (To be integrated with Svc 327)
Hougang Central Int, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang Ave 7, Tampines Rd, Hougang Ave 3, Ave 2, Ave 8, Ave 4, Ave 9, St 92, Ave 9, Ave 4, Ave 8, Ave 2, Hougang Ave 3, Tampines Rd, Hougang Ave 7, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang Central Int
Service 326:
Hougang Central Int, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang Ave 8, Ave 6, Ave 10, Ave 2, Ave 3, Tampines Rd, Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang St 21 (Loop)
Service 328:
Hougang Central Int, Hougang Ave 5, Ave 7, Tampines Rd, Hougang Ave 3, Ave 2, Ave 10, Ave 4, Ave 8, St 52, St 51, Buangkok Green, Ave 4, St 51, St 52 (Loop)
Service 51- Partially correct as I noted about the interchangable suggestions of Svc 51 and 151. Service 132- Totally Spot On! 
Service 322 327- Correct in terms of the fact that they integrate. Wrong in terms of the full detailed route. 
Service 151 321 326 328- All wrong. -
My review:Originally posted by tranquilice:My earlier reply for this topic Kovan services http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=62104
Service 321: Withdrawn (Replaced by service 62)
Service 322: Withdrawn (Replaced by services 72, 165 and proposed service 132)
Service 325: Withdrawn, to integrate with service 315 to become a Serangoon - Hougang Central trunk service
Service 326: Withdrawn (Replaced by service 62)
Service 327: Withdrawn (Replaced by proposed service 151)
Service 328: Withdrawn (Replaced by new service from integration of 325 and 315)
Service 51: Extend to Hougang Central via Hougang Ave 2 and Ave 10.
Service 151: Extend to Hougang Central, via Tampines Rd, Hougang Ave 7, Ave 8 and Ave 10. (To replace service 327 along Ave 7)
Service 132: Amend to Hougang Central, via Hougang Ave 2 and Ave 10 (To replace service 322 along Ave 2)
Service 119: Extend to Serangoon via Hougang St 21, Ave 1, Lor Ah Soo, Upper Paya Lebar Rd and Upper Serangoon Rd.
Service 51: Partially correct.
Service 132: Partially correct.
Service 151: Partially correct.
The rest all wrong.

don't understand, but SBST seems very quiet on the changes this time..
the www.sbstransit.com.sg main page "Latest Updates" scroller does not show the news of the changes, nor did the drop-down box of the press releases have "February 2004", and when u select "What's New -> Press Releases" it leads you to the January 2004 page.. normally SBST will release it through the press at the same time but this time it seems extraordinarily quiet.. -

Looks like I got quite a number wrong, especially the feeder services.

The feeder services are all withdrawn, leaving only service 325.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Looks like I got quite a number wrong, especially the feeder services. -
Correct term is integrated. It'd be nice if Sv. 325 were extended to AMK or Bishan, and renumbered Sv. 102, as HG Central currently has no link to AMK or Bishan.Originally posted by tranquilice:The feeder services are all withdrawn, leaving only service 325. -
Integrated but operating as trunk services.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Correct term is integrated. It'd be nice if Sv. 325 were extended to AMK or Bishan, and renumbered Sv. 102, as HG Central currently has no link to AMK or Bishan.
Hougang Central has 3 links to AMK (ie. services 74, 132 and 165) -
Hougang Ave 8 has service 88 to Bishan.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Correct term is integrated. It'd be nice if Sv. 325 were extended to AMK or Bishan, and renumbered Sv. 102, as HG Central currently has no link to AMK or Bishan. -
But not HG Central.Originally posted by tranquilice:Hougang Ave 8 has service 88 to Bishan. -

Isn't 132 gonna call HGN? Dosen't it pass through AMKC?
As for BSH, I think it will be rejected as BSH has no need to new services and they will say 55 serves HG. -
But service 132 will not serve Kovan.Originally posted by th1988:Isn't 132 gonna call HGN? Dosen't it pass through AMKC?

You have forgotten about Bishan's lack of links to Boon Lay or Tampines. The closest I get is Pasir Ris and that alone is 55 minutes away.Originally posted by th1988:Isn't 132 gonna call HGN? Dosen't it pass through AMKC?
