, as it plys to Punggol Rd end, replacing part of service 82 route.
Your suggestion to services 112 and 113 seems to have winding routes.
Service 101 has to serve Hougang MRT station to convenience passengers at Buangkok Cres. -
The finetuned version
119: Sengkang - Hg St 11 (Loop)
119 rt, Hg Ave 1, Lor Ah Soo, Hg St 11 (Loop)
112: Hougang Ctrl - Kovan (Loop)
Hg Ave 10, Ave 6, St 51, Ave 9, YCK Rd, Hg Ave 2, Upp Serangoon Road, Hg St 21 (Loop). It covers 326, 322 rt at Hg St 92. A shorter rt can be used if Hg Ave 9 is skipped and merge with proposed 113 and a new rt to serve Hg Ave 6/ 8 to Kovan.

BUS service 151 should be extended to SGN interchange rather than HGN. - the link between kovan and HG ave 3 (aft tamp rd) is missing. If you want to get to PLAB from kovan or SGN we need to take 3 buses to reach that crazy.... and waste of money...Originally posted by th1988:Now for trunk service.

BTW is 113 and 112 a trunk service? -
It is very simple from PLAB
Take 90 to Macpherson Road and transfer to 100 along Upp/ Aljunied Road. Just 1 transfer will do. -
My suggestions have already been posted in other topics. Pity SBST couldn't be bothered to take our suggestions into play.

But service 100 ends at Serangoon. The current link between service 151 from Hougang South ---> service 90 to PLAB will be missing.Originally posted by th1988:It is very simple from PLAB

Ok, I have been thinking of this.
From PLAB to Kovan (Wef 15 Feb)
Take 90 till before Paya Lebar Road and transfer to 80 along Upp Paya Lebar Road. Fare is $0.58 + $0.63 - $0.25 and that is $0.96
From PLAB to Serangoon
Take 90 till before Paya Lebar Road and transfer to 22, 70 to Serangoon. Fare is $0.58 + $0.63 - $0.25 and that is $0.96
Alternative
Take 90 to Macpherson Road before Upp Aljunied Road and transfer to 100. Fare is $0.68 + $0.63 - $0.25 and that is $1.06 -
Now, as all KVN admendments are cleared. I will close the "Kovan admendments" heading on this and watch out within tonight as it is also for other services on other estates.

I shall start with Tampines services, I see espically 293 rt is circuitous. Are there better ways to improve it?
Also 39 seems to use long rts, using Ave 7, Ave 2, Ave 5. Are there demands for the longer rt?
Are there relatively high demands on 518? -

2. There's high demands for service 518, particularly for peak hours and weekends. -
1. I'm ok with 39's route. This is to provide a greater part of Tampines links to Yishun.Originally posted by th1988:Also 39 seems to use long rts, using Ave 7, Ave 2, Ave 5. Are there demands for the longer rt?

2. I realised on weekdays 518 is practically running on empty at Elias Rd towards PSR. -
Main purpose is to link these people with Yishun and PSR, for Sv. 39, and for Sv. 518, there are high loads, but not within PSR.Originally posted by th1988:I shall start with Tampines services, I see espically 293 rt is circuitous. Are there better ways to improve it?

What about my q on 293?
I think that all for Tampines services, watch out for another forum on an service also in the Eastern Dist.
If others still enquires on Tampines services, feel free to ask and all will try to help you. -
You want to introduce a new feeder to help Sv. 293 load? Unless that is done Sv. 293 route will have to be circuitous.Originally posted by th1988:What about my q on 293?

For 293, I would try to use 28/ 29 to divert part of rt.
Now for Pasir Ris sv, -
Generally, PSR trunk and feeders are very well planned
Happened that PSR do not have many small roads
But does others have suggestion on PSR rts? -
But, one thing abt sv 3.
Is it still circuitious? -
Sv. 3 plies narrow roads within PSR.Originally posted by th1988:Generally, PSR trunk and feeders are very well planned

But they are not very small roads, even ADDs can use it.
-
They are narrower than Bishan St 12 and Tampines St 41!Originally posted by th1988:But they are not very small roads, even ADDs can use it. -
Well, then I am going to Punggol
Don't want to say too much, poor linking network, but adequate as 4 services are needed and there are 3, 62, 82, 83, 136. 84 cannot be counted as it is peak hr sv (In my opinion)
But planning is good as there are no small road at all. But it may face withdrawn when LRT starts running end of this year.
But some services can be introduced
1) To Changi Village/ Beach
2) Ang Mo Kio/ Toa Payoh
3) Bukit Timah
4) Choa Chu Kang/ Bt Panjang
