Hey! I'm a newbie here but have been reading many of the threads. Decided to post something here.
Last year, the day when George W. Bush came to SG via Paya Lebar Military Airport, i was on 27 heading towards Sengkang on TPE. They blocked the whole expressway heading towards Sengkang and rerouted every vehicle to Lor Halus flyover. My bus included. And they also closed Tampines Road as well. So my bus was stuck at the exit of the eway for approx. 45 min.
After that, since the bus was out of route, it went straight to HG Central Interchange. On the way, at Tampines Road, i saw 6 72s all heading towards Tampines. Guess they were stuck as well. Plenty of 81s and 53s as well. Quite a rarity to suddenly see so many operating buses all at once.

Also noticed about 3 72s stuck in Old Tampines Road.
At the interchange, the driver told the pax who were supposed to go Sengkang to remain on board. It continued the usual route back and i saw 4 27s, 3 being 5% full, heading back to HG.

In the end, i realised my bus was the only 27 that got rerouted and i was late by 1 and a half hours. Quite an interesting sight for me. Just sharing.
