I won't be surprised if service 188 is also one of your suggestion, which forced service 10 to be out of Clementi.Originally posted by xin1jun2:meanwhile the present TIBS963 bus was becoz of me. i complained about express 521 muahahha

There's bus stops on Jln Bt MErah and Henderson Rd. Did you eat up the bus stops?Originally posted by xin1jun2:INTRODUCTION of ZYX850 on 27 Feb 2004
New service ZYX850 will be introduced on 27 feb 2004. the new service will give residents in Yishun an alternative to get to orchard road rather than the MRT.
ZYX850 : YISHUN - BT MERAH
via Yishun ave 2, Yishun ring road, Yishun ave 2, Lentor ave (express), , Ang Mo Kio ave 5, CTE Buyong road 9express), Peanang road, Somerset road, orchard boulevard, tanglin road, Tiong bahru road, redhill close, Jln bt emrah (no bus stops), henderson road 9no bus stop), Bt Merah int
------------------- ZYXbus
hhehe i tweaked the route so as to draw some 14 pax to the 850 along bt merah. and so the bus will indeed call along Bt merah. oh yes now u got a link from ikea to orchard. and from ikea to bt merah!Originally posted by service_238:There's bus stops on Jln Bt MErah and Henderson Rd.

What bus models would you like to deploy on ZYX850?
Hmm...controlled by which depot? I would definitely want it to WL!!! At least it would not be disrupted on church daysOriginally posted by xin1jun2:hhehe i tweaked the route so as to draw some 14 pax to the 850 along bt merah. and so the bus will indeed call along Bt merah. oh yes now u got a link from ikea to orchard. and from ikea to bt merah!
the buses deployed will be the ZYX merc 0405s with hispano body. unless demand picks up thne we got them habits on 850.

Seriously, I was very furious when SBST introduced service 188, which kicked service 10 out of Clementi, and what worse is that, service 188 did not serve Clementi MRT and Bt Batok MRT. This made it difficult for Toh Guan Rd passengers to get to Bt Batok town centre.Originally posted by xin1jun2:no. i DID NOT kick 10 out of clementi. personally i am not happy with it too. but at least TIBS came back with 188

i am sorry to tell you that it will be run by YCKdep (TIBS AMK depot basically). in fact there will be sharing of SP buses from YCK for 851 and 850s once the service starts.Originally posted by TIB1186Z:Hmm...controlled by which depot?

yes but i found out that 188 does call at "the back" of the Bt batok MRT. i walked like hell. and also to clementi int u had to walk like hell from the WRC bus stop along AYE.Originally posted by tranquilice:Seriously, I was very furious when SBST introduced service 188, which kicked service 10 out of Clementi, and what worse is that, service 188 did not serve Clementi MRT and Bt Batok MRT.

sounds good idea. 852A. can suggest to TIBS actually?Originally posted by TIB1186Z:Introducing 'DBS' 852A.
This svc is to improve the frequency on svc 852 during the student peak hour in the morning,
Yishun Int, Ave 2 , Lentor Ave ( Express ).......follow same route as 852......Bt Timah Rd ( After Adam Flyover, Coronation, HCJC, opp Hill crest ) U-turn after opp NJC bus stop, Dunearn Rd ( NJC ). After this, the buses can go straight, express back to their respective terminals
This is because i observe that there are very few pax after all the NJ students alight, all the way back to BBT.
Departure Times:
0620
0630
0640
This give a nice 6-7mins freq which is required
For the comfort of students sleeping or mugging for tests, Hisapno 0405s will be deployed,
Originally posted by service_238:It would be good if SBST pick it up. Previously going to Temasek Polytechnic from HV, I would take TIBS 106 to Serangoon and SBST 23 to TP.
It seems like my Service 20 was never in this thread... anyway..
introducing "COp Service 20" - The fastest way from the east to central.

Ever considering sending a suggestion to Tibs to amend the route of service 188? (If you have not done so) Tibs never did anything to the route after it took this service over from SBST.Originally posted by xin1jun2:yes but i found out that 188 does call at "the back" of the Bt batok MRT. i walked like hell. and also to clementi int u had to walk like hell from the WRC bus stop along AYE.

Then your 180 cannot use bendies already. Sengkang Int does not have space for bendies. Anyway, 180 takes less than 1.5 hours to get from Boon Lay to Bt Panjang. Normally, it takes close to 45 mins.Originally posted by TIB1186Z:Recently, my friend living in Bt. Panjang complained that there are no direct links to the east side of Singapore.
So, introducing 'DBS'180
Boon Lay - Bt Panjang ( As usual ) follow 171/963 route to Bt Panjang Rd, BKE, SLE, TPE, Jln Kayu flyover, TPE, Punggol Rd, Sengkang East Ave, Sengkang Int.
Jln kayu stop to allow transfer to svc 168 to TMP/ BDK, 86 to YCK/AMK. Also svc858 to SIN.
Estimated time needed is max 1.5hrs from Boon Lay, max 1hr from Bt Panjang. This beats taking 190 to city and transfering, or sit MRT until butt pain![]()

Actually, I do go to Bt Panjang at least 3 times a week and I stay in the east (PSR). This is how I get there.
89 to Sengkang
161 to Woodlands
187/963 to Bt Panjang.
But I agree that there is a severe lack of service from the Northwestern part of Singapore to the eastern parts.
