  I'll start w/ these heavy corridor. Basis using peak hours.

  Kallang Airport Estate - Town (Orchard, Shenton Way, Bugis): Sv 16 load seem to have cooled.

  Macpherson Estate (Via Sv 40/ 63/ 158 or 135/ 154 connection): So far has seen Sv 135 & 154 still gets high loading to Paya Lebar. Macpherson Station are mostly used by ITE Macpherson students.

  Paya Lebar - Ubi Industrial Town: Buses are still relatively packed.

  Suntec: Yet to be seen as of MBS.

  Sv 58: So far it still can get passenger load for MRT bridging.

  Sv 158: Got decent load during peak hrs bet Macpherson Est & S'goon.

  Sv 43: Least 35% filled.

  Sv 70: Good loading even at Ubi stretch.

  I still remember one bus on service 70 still pack to the brim travelling along Guillemard Road towards YCK one weekday evening just after the CCL opened.

  Short haul services like 11 is really no demand, at times come across an empty bus with only a BC.

  It seems to me that Services along the CCL lines are not being affected at all. I still see full loads for those Paya Lebar Sector.

  IMO, the service that would be affected the most from circle line would be SV 11. Firstly, the frequency in the first place is too long and after Stadium Stn open, ppl find no need to transfer to SV 11 at Kallang Stn/ GL1 Terminal. However, loading is still there when there is events going on at the stadium area just that majority of the ppl start to depend on CCL

  Since when will 410 and 52 get affected for Bishan? Are you trying to imply that ppl living in Thomson no nid the 2 bus svcs alr?

  5pm isn't e peak slot. SGX just end tx for e day.

  Lots of ppl still rather take buses to Paya Lebar take EWL than walk to Tai Seng. lol

• sbst275

  11 May 10, 20:58

  Seems Aljunied MRT has cooled a bit for those heading to Macpherson Estate. Looks like Sv 40 no more chance to get high demand corridor le.

  Sv 11 could probably do route amendment. Terminate at tat Stadium car park and loop outside Kallang MRT instead.

  But running time is e issue. lol

• TIB1010Y

  11 May 10, 23:17

  How abt SWT 62A, 63A, 80A, 100A that terminate at aljunied stn? are those svc affected?

  in any case if CCL did took away 62, 100's load it does help them actually.

  Less of possibility of commuters along Aljunied Rd complaining unable to board e bus.

  13 May 10, 10:51

  I still feel 100 the most is loss of ppl at S'goon New Town heading to Geylang/ Sims Place area

  My Observation:(I'm a student taking CCL after school)

  Macpherson Stn:Packed with Students.Mainly by Kong Hwa School students,mostly alighting at Paya Lebar,Dakota and Mountbatten.

  Service 43: Still a small crowd.Doesn't change at all in the morning.Guess is because CCL doesn't serve Marine Parade.

  Service 135:Still quite a crowd at 1pm,near Macpherson Stn.

  SV 11 should go to Tanjong Rhu too.

  11 imo be best left as it is.

  Unless SBS decides to have a feeder service at 20 mins freq linking Meyer Rd, Tg Rhu & Stadium MRT Station.

• SGCar

  13 May 10, 22:44

  Actually I prefer 11 to be extended to loop at Tg Rhu, which can bring up the passenger rate. If empty buses keeps going on, I think SBST would merge it with some other services.

  Cheers.

  13 May 10, 23:25

  1 thing to point out that services 43 and 70 have parallel routes between Yio Chu Kang Road (Buangkok Link) to Paya Lebar MRT.

  Service 62 will be the best suggestion to merge with service 11.
