How about service admendments
-
I think SBS needs to clean up itself in terms of service destinations. Like 3 Sv for TPY - TAM.
Service 84: Loading is not high and running along 83 rt
Any others? -

It seems like many people have been seeing 8 28 31 as destination buses instead of where they pass through. Terminating at Toa Payoh & Tampines isnt a bad idea.
Moreover 28 & 31 is a long route already, both of them bypassing places like Bartley, Paya Lebar, Geylang Serai, Bendemeer Rd, Old Airport Estate & Marine Parade.
28 connects the following places:
Toa Payoh & Bartley Toa Payoh & Upp Paya Lebar Toa Payoh & Geylang Serai Bartley & Geylang Serai Bartley & Bedok Bartley & Tampines Upp Paya Lebar & Bedok Upp Paya Lebar & Tampines Geylang Serai & Tampines East Geylang Serai & Bedok (I know there's 2 7 26 30 for this) Within Tampines
31 connects the following places: Toa Payoh & Bendemeer Toa Payoh & Kallang Toa Payoh & Old Airport Estate Toa Payoh & Tg Katong Toa Payoh & Marine Parade Bendemeer & Kallang Bendemeer & Old Airport Estate Bendemeer & Tg Katong Bendemeer & Marine Parade Bendemeer & Bedok Kallang & Old Airport Estate Kallang & Tg Katong Kallang & Marine Parade Kallang & Bedok Old Airport Estate & Marine Parade Old Airport Estate & Bedok Old Airport Estate & Tampines Tg Katong & Bedok Tg Katong & Tampines Marine Parade & Bedok Marine Parade & Tampines
It'd be possible if Svc 8 could be extended, but does the demand requires it to? For the moment, I don't think so. If Svc 8 were to terminate at Bishan by bypassing TPY Int, it'd bring alot of inconvenience to people at TPY Central going towards Bedok Reservoir & Ubi. Hence, I'd prefer Svc 8 to stay as it is.

Wahlao,If Like That Might As Well Makes 25 Or 26 Terminate At Eunos To Help Reduced Congested At Bedok.Wonder What Would Happens To 51 & 151 After Hougang Sth Close Down??Originally posted by foxtrot1985:3 services for TAM-BEDOK although they are some sort of inter-town feeder services in some way...

The point is how many passengers take the bus from TPY to Bedok Reservoir & Ubi? I personally think more passengers would benefit by extending 8 to Bishan.Originally posted by service_238:It'd be possible if Svc 8 could be extended, but does the demand requires it to?

I agree too
Service 8 have low demand, the high demand (Full seat capacity) are actually caused by the NAC sv provided by 90. Many shy taking 90 as it is NAC, but what if 8 is extended to Bishan and leaving only 90? When I was at the Int, I took 90 but others take 8 which leaves 2 mins later and they stop at POSBank.
Also Ubi is also served by 22, 28, 65, 66. So 8 is like duplicating with other routes.
To Bedok Reservior Road, you may take 506 if you have the $ to do so. -
SBST mentioned before that service 84 is a temporary service, it will be replaced by another service that ply Sengkang East Drive/Punggol East flyover (ie. service 62). But we don't know how soon it will be.Originally posted by th1988:I think SBS needs to clean up itself in terms of service destinations. Like 3 Sv for TPY - TAM.

There are also 3 services between Bedok and Clementi (ie. services 7, 14, 196), and another 3 services between Bedok and Jurong East (ie. services 66, 197, 506). -
Sv. 84 will be withdrawn probably early next year. Sv. 3, Sv. 136 and Sv. 62 are sufficient enough to cope with demand for Sv. 84, which isn't a lot anyway.Originally posted by tranquilice:SBST mentioned before that service 84 is a temporary service, it will be replaced by another service that ply Sengkang East Drive/Punggol East flyover (ie. service 62).
