  When TIBS took over CCK, there was 1 stage whereby they withdrew Townlink 307 and made it a feeder service to loop at Yew Tee. My question is what feeder service servedthe Teck Whye residents? And why did TIBS withdraw Townlink 307 and made it into a feeder svc? Thanks, I have already forgotten.

  During that time, Teck Whye residents had to use other trunk services or the LRT.
  
  Service 307 was amended to skip Teck Whye as there's already the LRT there, but many residents complained, so service 307, with the help of Choa Chu Kang MP, served Teck Whye again.

  I think I'm able to answer the first question. There was a bus service call LOOP or something like that back then. However, this service went on the news and it was reported that it wasnt making any money.

  For the Chua chu kang/Lim chu kang area (near camp SG/Cemetery area), I think last time along these road got many kampung type houses (still can see some of the remains) but goverment relocate them to the HDB estate so the bus stop got use less and less and now no one uses them (execept for chow kenging soldiers .
  )

  Yes, there was a bus service called LOOP. But what company operated it?

  There is a renovated bus stop along Siglap Link( opp new Victoria School).It used to be a stop for svc 36 for right turn from Marine Parade Road before going on ECP to Changi Airport. After the Victoria School opens, fences were built at junction, not allowing any right turns from Marine Parade Road,for the safety of the students. Svc 36 was diverted to turn right into Siglap Road instead. No one will use that bus stop now.

  If I'm not wrong that road is now a one-way street?

  Siglap Link is still a two-way road.
