2 is the backbone of EWL, so it duplicates as many EWL stations as possible.Originally posted by sbs&tibs:You imagine 93 route and the CCL route on a blank Sg map.
Doesn't it looks duplicating with CCL?
2 can start from St Michael's Ter. But I don't think it is a good idea. The route oy suggested is fine, but it still looks duplicating with EWL. Shorten it is better, do you UNDERSTAND what am I saying? Make it ply Gelang East Central to cover up 80 withdrawn sector.
agree. most times i can't even board the DDs during the morning peak. freq is excellent also. btw 80 was supposed to be amended for the NEL rationalization but somehow SBST decided against it. Why amend 80 when CCL starts operation then? SBST would certainly like to compete with SMRT, which is why 502 follows most of the EWL right?Originally posted by SBS9818A:Lor 1 Geylang is NOT a TIBS terminal. It is actually a neutral zone. Sv. 22 should stay as an alternative from Paya Lebar - Lor Chuan, rather then alienating an entire section of population. Same for Sv. 80, it is a very popular service, especially on weekends.
Correct. Sv. 80 was intended to be amended, probably cut short to HG but SBST decided against it as they knew of the potential backlash. Sv. 80 is the sole service linking Geylang East Central residents to town, and they know that.Originally posted by gynobcard:agree. most times i can't even board the DDs during the morning peak. freq is excellent also. btw 80 was supposed to be amended for the NEL rationalization but somehow SBST decided against it.

502 doesnt follow much of EWL, only from BNL - CLE, after that it goes on Ulu Pandan / Holland Rd to Orchard / Marina Centre.Originally posted by gynobcard:agree. most times i can't even board the DDs during the morning peak. freq is excellent also. btw 80 was supposed to be amended for the NEL rationalization but somehow SBST decided against it.

ok, i'll make an amendment. 502 runs parallel to the EWL.Originally posted by leeJZ:502 doesnt follow much of EWL, only from BNL - CLE, after that it goes on Ulu Pandan / Holland Rd to Orchard / Marina Centre.
