Dream Interchanges.
-
I propose 4 "dream" interchanges. How are your comments?
-Marine Parade Interchange
Located at marine parade central. 15,966 can terminate there.
Maybe can extend 155 there too. Maybe there will be an int when the MRT goes there...
-Bukit Timah Interchange
Located underground, near beauty world centre. But it seems to be useless though
-Marina South Interchange
Can replace the shenton way ter cause marina south is getting busier...
70,107,700,970,186,507,162 can terminate there.
130 can loop at palmer road to stay as an alternative.
Maybe 507 can integrate with 333 and turn into jurong east st 32, change into a normal trunk service and operate into a full-day service & renumbered to 57. What do you think?
-Marina Centre Int.
The terminal there is rather pathetic. lots of buses loops there but doesnt stop there. maybe should build an interchange under the bridge
56,70*,75,97,106,107*,111, 162* 171,195, 502,700*,857,960 can terminate there. Maybe these services can go directly into the "Interchange" without going to suntec city. A new bus stop can be erected along raffles ave in suntec city, tower one (if i am not wrong) But it seems to be impossible.
How do you think about these?
36&133 will stay as alternative services. -
Then where's 400? maybe 130 merge with 400 then extend?
-
Where is bukit timah interchange? never heard of.

How do you think about these? Why not make Marine Parade Int near Parkway Parade and amend some svcs to there including upp East Coast svcs? Amend 853 to Marine Parade Int daily ( I mean amend 853 to MRP Int instead of terminating at Gelang Lor 1 and Upp East Coast) Its useless to have a Bukit Timah Int. No need Marina South Int Merge of 507 & 333 can become 183 instead of 57. It is like spoiling Bishan 5x system. Transitlink have spoiled S'goon 10x system by extending 107. no need Marina Centre Int -
I have a totally dif idea because of my IBS and TSL
Marsiling Terminal - To run shuttles and CBD rts
Alexandra Rd Terminal - To run shuttles to Labador Pk
Jalan Kayu Terminal - To run CBD rts (Not 103)
Marina Centre Interchange - To house abt 15 IBS and TSL rts except 107, 133, 700.
Anson Rd Terminal - To house NR rts
Marina Bay Terminal - Near the future cruise terminal, 2 bus service will run from there which I will announce at "What rts do you have in mind" -
not bad the more terminals and interchange the more bus services.

I really hope Bt Merah Int will relocate to the empty patch of land at Redhill MRT. Renamed Redhill Int.
So diversion plans -
16, 608, 851 - delete Henderson Rd, continue straight along Tiong Bahru Rd, Redhill Int.
153, 198 - extended from Bt Merah central to Henderson Rd, Tiong Bahru Rd, Redhill Int.
131 - Extended from Lower Delta Rd to Jln Bt Merah, Kim Tian Rd, Tiong Bahru Rd, Redhill Int.
132 - extended from Henderson Rd to Depot Rd, Alexandra Rd, Tk Blangah Rd and then Harbourfront Ter.
139 - extended from Bt Merah Central to Henderson Rd, Tk Blangah Way, Lower Delta Rd, Kg Bahru Rd, Tk Blangah Rd, Harbourfront Ter.
167 - extended from Jln Bt Merah to Alexandra Rd, Tiong Bahru Rd, Redhill Int.
176, 605 - extended from Henderson Rd to Tiong Bahru Rd, Redhill Int.
272 - Redhill Int, Tiong Bahru Rd, Lower Delta Rd, TK blangah Way, Tk Blangah Cres, Tk Blangah Way, Tk Blangah Rise, Lower Delta Rd, TIong Bahru Rd, Redhill Int.
273 - Redhill Int, Tiong Bahru Rd, Henderson Rd, and continue
normal route
275 - Redhill Int, Redhill Rd, Redhill Close, Lengkok Bahru, (Hoy Fatt Rd) Jun Bt Merah and continue normal route.
123 - Withdrawn
274 - Withdrawn (serviced by newly amended 132)
Other amendments -
195 - to operate into Bt Purmei (becomes 2 directional along Bt Purmei) -

Anson Rd: NR1, NR2, NR3, NR5, NR6, NR7, NR8
Marina Bay Terminal: 430 (Cruise Terminal to Pasir Ris), 431 (Cruise Terminal to Ang Mo Kio) -
I think HarbourFront has only 1 more space for a service (used by the old 85) and no more room for expansion (?).Originally posted by loudmonkey:I really hope Bt Merah Int will relocate to the empty patch of land at Redhill MRT. Renamed Redhill Int.

No more unless there are more than 20 berthsOriginally posted by leeJZ:I think HarbourFront has only 1 more space for a service (used by the old 85) and no more room for expansion (?). -
Have some Changi Airport buses go to the departure hall of both PTBs, then BENDYS can be used.
Marymount Int: To collaborate with the future Circle Line MRT. May be located at the U/C RJC site, at the circle line marymount stn office. One trunk svc can run from there to cover shunfu estate and around sin ming area, then run to AMK. And add more trunk svcs there also..... -
Changi Airport, my TSL has a 720x sv that is 24 hrs starting 1 Aug 2004 from both hall.Originally posted by SBS9845X:Have some Changi Airport buses go to the departure hall of both PTBs, then BENDYS can be used.

I will be updating the rts at the topic "Any idea rts you have"
New IBS Sv 411 will serve Shunfu Est -
Oh, thats great. 24 hrs...
-
You're welcomeOriginally posted by SBS9845X:Oh, thats great. 24 hrs...
This idea came from someone who asked for 24 hrs svs, hence this will be the 1st try out.
Why Changi? Because this gives us a edge as buses to airport runs 24 hrs unlike most countries. Main target passengers are tourist
The buses will be Volvo (The zero step one) with bagage rack available.
But do you find $1.50 ex? -
24 hrs is pointless. The last pax arriving will normally come from SQ11 at 1+am in the morning. Then from 2am to 6am you're going to have empty trips ah?Originally posted by sbst275:Changi Airport, my TSL has a 720x sv that is 24 hrs starting 1 Aug 2004 from both hall.

I think $1.50 is dirt cheap!!! How to sustain?Originally posted by sbst275:But do you find $1.50 ex?
I sorta agree.....it may not be that there are no passengers, since there are still flights that will land, but I guess most will use taxis instead of buses.Originally posted by SBS9818A:24 hrs is pointless.

Guess I will amend 132 again then.Originally posted by leeJZ:I think HarbourFront has only 1 more space for a service (used by the old 85) and no more room for expansion (?).
Journey the same till Depot Rd, then (Alexandra Rd), AYE, Lower Kent Ridge Rd, Kent Ridge Cres, (Clementi Rd) , Kent Ridge Ter. -
The last flights (inbound Singapore Airlines, Northwest, United) will normally arrive at around 1~ am in the morning.Originally posted by loudmonkey:I sorta agree.....it may not be that there are no passengers, since there are still flights that will land, but I guess most will use taxis instead of buses.
btw 132 cannot use DDs if it plies Lower Kent Ridge Rd. Height limit of 4m there. Maybe amend 132 to ply Sv 10 route from HBF - Kent Ridge and shorten 10 to Shenton Way? Shenton Way - HBF market already got alternatives 97 100 131. -
I put all concern to restOriginally posted by SBS9818A:24 hrs is pointless. The last pax arriving will normally come from SQ11 at 1+am in the morning. Then from 2am to 6am you're going to have empty trips ah?
Quite a number of flights from Europe especially leave and arrive during the wee hrs i.e 0200, 0400. However, buses departing will take 1 hr after a plane arrives during these hrs. E.g from Vienna arrive at 0400 or from Australia at 0100
As for the fares, Sv 36 cost $1.43 to Orchard from Changi
I'm putting it at 2 fares
$1.30 (Up to 0200)
$2.50 (Till 0500) -
Pax would rather take taxi. Who would like to haul a whole lot of heavy luggage up a bus? The Airport services are mainly for the convinience of airport staff / airport visitors (ie pax receivers), with the exception of possibly Sv 36.Originally posted by sbst275:I put all concern to rest

If say 2 ppl
$5 taking the 24 hr sv (The buses are fitted with racks)
More than $15 taking cab -
zyx has his buses calling at the departure hall already. CBS still remains retro
there're less than 10 flights each for arrivals and departures at both terminals between 0145 - 0515. So i guess your IBS will be running empty -
What abt those going to the airport? Some flights start as early as 0530Originally posted by service_238:zyx has his buses calling at the departure hall already. CBS still remains retro

My IBS is dif from all of yours. My situation is that I take over all rts and run like a "monopoly" but willing to complete with the MRT svs
The racks are going to be placed at the both sides of the buses, meaning there is only 30 seats on 1 bus -
Introduce shortworking trips towards the airport then, demand from the airport would be very low.Originally posted by sbst275:What abt those going to the airport? Some flights start as early as 0530
