162 provides a direct link from Sin Ming and Bishan st 22 residents to town. It certainly has its reasons for its winding in AMK central and bishan.Originally posted by ipodee:i think Svc 11 is a non-profit route, more like a community convenience kinda service
162 shd be re-routed...its route from yio chu kang to bishan st 22 can easily be replaced by 13 from another direction. from sin ming to thomson there's 410 from thomson to novena there's 166, 167 and others, from newton to shenton way there's 167
Wouldnt that make the route even longer?Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:think 980 can be extended to marine parde rd.
Good ideas except 36. Its as good as 36 in its days when it was renumbered.Originally posted by iveco:23 can be integrated with 111.
274 can be merged with 153.
36 can be extended to Bt Merah Int.
More buses to Beach Road. (Possible to extend 75)
If service 162 is re-routed, the link between Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 (between Ave 1 and Ave 3) and Bishan St 22, Sin Ming Ave will be lost.Originally posted by ipodee:i think Svc 11 is a non-profit route, more like a community convenience kinda service

Cannot.Originally posted by iamgoondu:Or perhaps SBST 156 can be amended to terminate at Kent Ridge:
.... Bukit TImah ROad, Sixth Ave, Holland Road, North Buona Vista Road, NUH, NUS, Kent Ridge Terminal. (With that SBST 95 can be withdrawn).
That will provide residents a more direct access to the school zones in Bukit Timah Road.
I assume you mean Bt Panjang to Hougang Central and not Bt Merah.Originally posted by BlessingSatan:I would like to see sv 132 terminate at Bukit Panjang via PIE & BKE respectively.
Yes,No idea,Just hoping only!Originally posted by tranquilice:I assume you mean Bt Panjang to Hougang Central and not Bt Merah.
Then which service will be the replacement for the route between PIE and Bt Merah?
I welcome that.Originally posted by freakybuses:What about extending 166 to Jurong East via C'wealth Ave West - Boon Lay Way - Jurong East Ctrl - Jurong East Int?
Good idea, service 198 can be re-routed to ply this route.Originally posted by iamgoondu:This evening I took SBST195 from Commonwealth Drive to Ikea. I had waited for 20 minutes for the bus. On leaving at Commonwealth Ave (Queenstown MRT), the bus was sardined packed. And half of the bus load alight at Alexandra Road (Os Ikea Building).
There are 3 bus services (SBST 147, SBST 196, SBST 19plying between Commonwealth Ave (Commonwealth MRT) and Jalan Bukit Merah (Os Safra Bukit Merah), may I propose one of the 3 bus services to ply via the following route:
...Commonwealth Ave (Commonwealth MRT), Commonwealth Ave (Queenstown MRT), Alexandra Road (Ikea Building), Jalan Bukit Merah, ......
Any Comments..
But svc 99 is only serving the far west!!! No bus from the north to connect to the far west...Originally posted by tranquilice:I welcome that.That's the former route of service 147 between Clementi and Jurong East. But it will be difficult to become a reality, because there's already service 99 along the route.
but to the bus companies, route duplication is where a stretch of roads spanning many busstops are actually served by more than one bus service. it doesnt matter if the bus services start where so long they duplicate somewhere along their routes for a long stretch.Originally posted by freakybuses:But svc 99 is only serving the far west!!!

Did you put up this route to SBST?Originally posted by service_238:CBS20 covers that @http://www.geocities.com/malsohmt/CBS1/CBS20.htm![]()
Those jerks didnt reply me!Originally posted by iamgoondu:Did you put up this route to SBST?
Isn't there already 153?Originally posted by tranquilice:I assume you mean Bt Panjang to Hougang Central and not Bt Merah.

as mentioned earlier, i have sent a suggestion to SBST.... but i will also send a suggestion to TIBS regarding about my "SBST 181".Originally posted by BlessingSatan:Can someone kindly suggest to SBST at least a (SBST) service from Bt Panjang/CCK or Bt Batok to the Northeast areas(Vice-versa)?Also either Bishan or Toa Payoh need a TIBS service!
SBS is already using 181.Originally posted by freakybuses:as mentioned earlier, i have sent a suggestion to SBST.... but i will also send a suggestion to TIBS regarding about my "SBST 181".
