  Take 167 > MRT > 58/ 105 to S'goon Ave 3

  Fare: $1.15 + $0.36 + FREE = $1.51

  Take 980 > MRT > 58/ 105 to S'goon Ave 3

  Fare: $1.21 + $0.30 + FREE = $1.51 

  Take 980 > MRT > 105 to S'goon Ave 2

  Fare: $1.21 + $0.30 + $0.04 = $1.55

  Take 167 > MRT > 105 to S'goon Ave 2

  Fare: $1.15 + $0.36 + $0.04 = $1.55

  Take 167 > MRT to S'goon.

  Fare: $1.15 + $0.45 = $1.60

  Take 980 > MRT to S'goon

  Fare: $1.21 + $0.39 = $1.60

  alamak, all these while i was literally jogging from lorong chuan station to my home when i can get onto the bus and it's FREE!!.

  Fallen Tree Branches Trap 3 in Car

   

  Singapore: Three people trapped in their car by tree branches which had fallen on their vehicle were rescued by SCDF personnel this morning.
  
  SCDF said they received a call about the incident in front of Blk 226 Ang Mo Kio Ave 1 at 7.38am.
  
  SCDF personnel cleared the tree branches and manually opened the door of the vehicle to let the occupants out.
  
  A spokesman said that the three occupants of the car had no visible injuries and were not conveyed to hospital.

  heng hah... i chose to come to work after the rain ceases ...

  that is my travelling time to tagore if i take the AMK ave 1 route.

  I saw those guys were clearing the broke tree/branches just now... din know this serious.

  it all depends. In this case is because e short 58/ 105 ride is still within e same distance band after your 167 & MRT ride.

  I'll take your CCL travel plan.

  167/ 980 > MRT @ Marymount > 58

  $0.91 + $0.45 + FREE: $1.36

  So it's free as well (In fact just nice, total distance 9.2km, if it's 9.3km another 2 - 3c le).

  based on ratio...there are more poor than rich. so the chances of the tree hitting the poor is naturally higher

  From Tagore

  167/ 980 > MRT > 58/ 105

  $0.91 + $0.39 + $0.96 = $1.36

  To Tagore

  58/ 105 > MRT > 167/ 980

  $0.71 + $0.25 + $0.40 = $1.36

  In any case whoever is going to RWS can consider e hourly free shuttle buses from Tampines, Ang Mo Kio/ Bishan, Jurong East & Tiong Bahru.

  In Genting itself, there's 1x daily free bus but only for members and must do advance booking (being only 1x bus). Got timing means from KL subrubs 10am, go back from Genting at 5pm.

  22 Jul 10, 11:07

  Even e $2 RWS shuttle is a rip off on weekend

  Say LF's case from S'goon take MRT.

  MRT/ S'goon > RWS8 (to RWS)

  $1.58 + $2 = $3.58. Return is $1.58 (bus ride out is free). Total: $5.16

  MRT/ S'goon > 188R/ 963R (Board from Os tat hawker centre bus stop).

  $1.58 + $0.72 = $2.30. Return is $1.31 (bus) + $0.99 (NEL) = $2.30. Total: $4.60.. Of course can play cheat take e free bus out, end up pay $3.88.
