My point is I believe 82 will be amended to ply back Punggol Road End and 84 will be withdrawn by 2013/2014.

Hmmm. I suggest that 82 from Punggol Int GO to NEX and then GO to Punggol Road End VIA Punggol Int and back to Punggol Int like what AMDEP is doing to 265.
I do notice that the frequency of 325 during morning peak hours IMPROVED greatly. It is like 2~5 minutes got 1 325 already. You can even see them stacking in groups of 2-3 outside Punggol Pri towards Hougang Mall direction. I think 325 have 1 missing bus... That plausable slot is countinuously filled in by SBS2644E, SBS2703T*, SBS872B, SBS1995Z, SBS2665U... Countinuously filled in even when all the MkIII's are still in service.
[ SBS801G, SBS815S, SBS880C ] [Anyone knows why SBS723Z is dereged before it's time? ] The timing of it on off-peak hours improved by around 1 - 2 minutes only... if 4 minutes that will be better. But I think it is the BCs that drive it very slowly that is causing the major problem. Everytime I use iris, they keep saying ''May delay due to traffic congestion.'' when 43, 88 and 156 and 101 arent affected. First bus : 0-12 minutes, Next bus : 0-36 minutes.
The 36 minutes is when SBS723Z is still in service that time. It was horrible and many people were crowding at the bus stop. I hate it and I was extremely hungry to go Hougang Mall to eat.
At least, the frequencies improved. Maybe SBS may consider making ALL feeder buses to be WAB first. Cause many elderly USE feeder buses to get to the town centre to shop, buy basic daily things, food or visit town council for thingy to ask. Then the Mk4 and 3s have small steps. That also made it delay it's boarding and alighting time. I pity those elderly people. People in Hougang is aging like Ang Mo Kio. Ang Mo Kio got 261, 262, 265, 268, 269. Hougang, 325. 325's Route is [I forgot how many km!!!] approximately 12-20km IF I AM NOT WRONG. Elderly people may also want to go to their friend's house to visit them and have chat with them. They will take feeder buses too as feeder buses COVER MOST of the area's place. 325 already cover up 60% of Hougang. If excluding Serangoon , Kovan and Tampines Road area, it will be 70%. The rest is covered up by 113 and 112, which 113 is already WAB and 112 being commonly camoed by K230UBs. So make 325 a WAB sevice like the others :)

Some buses were de-registered due to unforseen circumstances. SBS7247K was de-registered already when SBS7244T to SBS7246M's lifespans were extended.
Sat of the School Holiday.. Causeway was heavily congested incl bus/ lorry lane in the afternoon
epic failure. Ultra long headways on Sv 160...
Very difficult to maintain stable headways

Unlikely as there's no intention to create double loop service anymore. Those who know abt NUS shuttle D1/2's problem would understand

I don't really find any double looping service issue.

Once there's double loop, there's always confusion among passengers who dun live at the area..
Go take a look at the bus stop info panel listed for Sv 155 at Macpherson Est, I dunno, the scholars tell ppl there's 2 directions, but the panel only list 1x on the looks tat is to "Toa Payoh Int".
Then for double loop svs, you incur 2x travelling time for the same passenger pool for Sv 84's case

112 got frequent k230ub cameo? u sure?
until now dun have even 1 kub cameo hor
325 the demand not as large as 113..
so if 113 nvr get improvements then 325 should not get it too
you know why bus services are inefficient?
because bus-happy people go and stand on the divider and snap the bus and cause bus to jam-brake and incovnenience the driver and hold up the bus.
think about it.
Seems like Sv 160 has really issues during school holiday period
Was thinking can a special route be implemented to ensure the Jurong East - Yew Tee leg in particular has bus running. mmm...
Bigger bus pls.

I still don't quite understand what you mean. Which part of the route had the issue?
Originally posted by Summer hill:Bigger bus pls.
You think any bus can be used right? I don't think so.
LTA should make all bus stops in Changi Airport dd accessible.
Someone feedbacked this on ST today.
