Final sentence
By looking at these chart, CW1 is going to have a hardtime riaos, only thing left to their advantage is short MRT journey to CCK, Admiralty or ppl x-fer to Sv 925 (SIN bound) or those dun mind take CW1 1st then x-fer to local buses to WDL Rd workplace.
Even it's cheaper now to take MRT to Kranji from Bugis and x-fer to 170.

without jams, one can clear this part (incl immigration at both ends) in about 30mins during super off-peak hours (:

actually already feel that once the transfer fare mechanism is closer between MRT and 170, passengers coming by Kranji MRT will have an even better reason to take SBST or SMRT's buses.
not forgetting that last time you only pay 19¢ extra to take 170 to JB checkpoint from Kranji MRT. now the fare transfer is seamless, even though it is offset by the chargeable distance increasing from 3.2km under stage-based to 6.2km under DBTF.

means worst is double e time riao.

950 is always been under-used in e case during off peak probably tat's why SMRT not really interested in any new CBS.
Yeah, in e long run once ppl start to know tat take 170 > MRT to their workplace is cheaper, more will take 160/ 170.
reminds me
4/ 8 new routes to be runned by Malaysian. Think end up lugi also. Shall wait n see
Oops, forgot abt Woodlands (WRI).

Finally...
Since now can cross 170 (Larkin) - 160 least... Re-tabulation time
But more happy if they can finally let ppl cross take 170X... It helps to let ppl at WDL Ctr least able to take 170 to Kranji.

ooh.. so they had change the calculations again?
what has changed?
Originally posted by 105090:ooh.. so they had change the calculations again?

Basically now can cross change bet 160 & 170. So it's possible to take 160 from Jurong East & x-fer to 170 to Woodlands Centre.
So now for Larkin bound commuters I take it tat they take 170 to WDL CIQ and x-fer to 160 for faster ride to Kranji in my new calculation for those affected stations/ connection.
But 170 - 170X crossing still not allowed yet.
Any case... Bet Kranji & Larkin fares.
From Larkin: 170 - 160 still e same as direct 170 ride @ $1.41.
Return: 160 - 170 will be $1.37 vs direct 170 ride @ $1.41.
something reminds me of tis connection to Industrial Est.

today tried 950 > 160 combo... confirm DBTF....
but didnt try for 170 170blue combi... SBS 160/170 today acting like ninjas
Is CW1's fare from Kota Raya RM1.10 now?
I do notice if ppl take 160/ 170 from Kota Raya or JB CIQ and x-fer to MRT at Kranji, SBS ends up collecting more revenue at e expense of SMRT.
