Upper East Coast is doing just fine. What i find weird is that why not other Marine Parade services terminate there as well?Originally posted by carbikebus:Upper East Coast Sould Withdrawn And Built A New Bus Park/Terminal Either At Siglap Rd Or Marine Parade.
Sims Place Also Not Necessary,64 Should Ply Sims Area To Terminate At Geylang Lorong 1, Let's Say.
Eunos Should Introduced A New Or Amended Service Particularly To North-East .
LCK Should Be Called A Bus Park,Not Terminal.Same As Buona Vista And Shenton Way.One Time The Driver Ask Me To Alight At The Bus Stop Before This Respective Terminals.
Tuas,Should Introduced Tibs Or Sbst New Service Ala 170 To Johor To Bring More Passengers And Then To Boon Lay Inter.
Queen Street,Amended Other Service To Loop At This Terminal To Alight And Pick Up Passengers Mostly From Johor.
Rumah Tinggi,If Not Because Of The Constraint Road,Should Make 63 Terminate There Instead Of Stopping For A Few Minutes.
One Of The Two Unique SBST Terminals After Ghim Moh Stopping Inside HDB Carparks!
Ok,What Your Comments?
By The Way,Which Other Term's Looping Or Terminates Inside HDB Carparks?
Rumah Tinggi Terminal was gone ever since Sv. 63 was merged with Sv. 382, and now buses park there for five minutes.Originally posted by service_238:Upper East Coast is doing just fine. What i find weird is that why not other Marine Parade services terminate there as well?
For Sims Place, the residents there need a bus service that plies the area. if Svc 64 is to be extended to Geylang Lor 1, the route might be a little weird..lol
Eunos has Service 51 & 87 in the area.
Terminus can defined as a place where buses park and also not for passenger service. LCK BV & SW do not have boarding facillities for passengers to commute.
At Tuas, I think SBST do not find it practical to operate a public bus service to Johor from there. It'll waste petrol. On the other hand, the malaysian authorities may have rejected SBST's request for this.
I see Queen St Terminal as the Johor-bound terminal. There're services nearby that brings them around singapore. Moreover, i dont think the visitors would prefer taking buses to cars.
Rumah Tinggi and Ghim Moh are long time Terminus already. SBST do not find the need to replace/demolish/relocated them. As for the Ghim Moh carpark, the buses U-turn there and park outside the bus stop. If there's no space, they may just park there.
Possibly so. But too bad the public didn't like it. However the a/c bus interchange may work out, but Ghim Moh residents will lose their only two bus links.Originally posted by iamgoondu:Remember LTA's earlier intention to build its HQ building at Buona Vista? Unfortunately it was scrapped. In that's announcement, it had announced an air-conditioned Buona Vista bus interchange to replace both Buona Vista and Ghim Moh Terminals.
The announcement for an air-conditioned BV bus interchange was made when Toa Payoh bus interchange was first opened too.
I believe the opening of that proposed air-conditioned BV bus interchange would coincide with the opening of BV MRT station as an interchange for EW and CCL.
Do what they are good at, take feeder service and transfer.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Possibly so. But too bad the public didn't like it. However the a/c bus interchange may work out, but Ghim Moh residents will lose their only two bus links.
No, convert a feeder service into trunk for the sake of "service enhancement". Enhancement in a sense that residents pay more and get the same stuff.Originally posted by off_service:Do what they are good at, take feeder service and transfer.
Will Ghim Moh residents be aversely affected? The proposed new BV interchange would probably be a stone throw away.Originally posted by off_service:Do what they are good at, take feeder service and transfer.
Not very what. It could possibly be on the current site even.Originally posted by iamgoondu:Will Ghim Moh residents be aversely affected? The proposed new BV interchange would probably be a stone throw away.
Residents in BV will be very much affected rather!
Very soon, probably next year. Now the services left terminating there are Sv. 51, Sv. 132 and Sv. 151, plus the other feeders, wouldn't be too tough amending them.Originally posted by medicheng:hmmmm is hougang south interchange going to be removed? when?

We'll see a massive change in HG services on the day itself.Originally posted by off_service:15 Feb 2004.
Yah, you give the companies several billions to finance the replacement of 3000-odd buses to all low-floor, OK?Originally posted by carbikebus:Pardon my ignorance,but is it really confirms that LTA had plans to build buona vista interchange in future to replace ghim moh/buona vista terminals respectively?As for sembawang int,I heard that it will be completed by mid 04,So my guess is sembawang rd end/Admiralty rd west terminals will be gone.Any others info that LTA will builds a new int/ter at other areas?As for the new SBST volvo super olympian,I heard some info that it is the latest B10TL euro 3 eng,maybe fitted with either ALX?? or wright bodies(not sure if it's true).AFAIK,TIBS is going to introduced new buses,if i'm not wrong it's scania(stepless).By the way,I think it is time that all s'pore public buses should be lowfloor/stepless.
Wishing everyone in this forum a happy new year!
Ok,thank you for your nice replies,if i had the billions,i would not waste my times sending this topics!Originally posted by SBS9818A:Yah, you give the companies several billions to finance the replacement of 3000-odd buses to all low-floor, OK?![]()
I'm trying to say they don't have the cash on hand. Unless a willing person would give them several billions to upgrade their bus fleets to please a small, but vocal minority of commuters.Originally posted by carbikebus:Ok,thank you for your nice replies,if i had the billions,i would not waste my times sending this topics!![]()
Actually you misunderstand me,In my opinion only that s'pore public buses should had lowfloor/stepless,Not suggesting the companies to upgrade or buy all lowfloor/stepless buses which i think would not happen.Originally posted by SBS9818A:I'm trying to say they don't have the cash on hand.

AFAIK low-floor buses were only pioneered less than a decade so they cannot have all low-floor or stepless fleets.Originally posted by carbikebus:Actually you misunderstand me,In my opinion only that s'pore public buses should had lowfloor/stepless,Not suggesting the companies to upgrade or buy all lowfloor/stepless buses which i think would not happen.
Just opinion pal,nothing else.Sorry if this offensive,who actually is minority and who are the majority?Is the vocal minority is who the one like to complain?Or are the majority is who the one that think they are smart enough and always trying to picks one's faults?
No hard feelings ya!Because i'm not smart enough to knows about this forums and the users attitudes.Bye!![]()
