  idk about other services, but its often to see 300, 302, 307, 985.

  For instance, today 307 already comes in couples around 4pm today (1574P with 1575L, 1577G with 1516H, 1594G with 1538U). And such instances are very evident especially on Saturdays...

  And 179 is definitely not low...it should be at extreme high...

  I have not seen 2 buses of Service 301 before, but I did see 2 buses of Service 24, 27, 34, 53, 98, 157, 159, 171, 179, 187, 238, 241, 243, 291, 293 and 3 or more buses of Service 334. I think Service 3's bunching is extremely high because you can see 2 buses almost at the peak hours and for Service 334, the chances of bunching is extremely high

  I have not seen 2 buses of Service 179 before, but I did see 2 buses of Service 24, 27, 34, 53, 98, 157, 159, 171, 187, 238, 243, 291, 293 and 3 or more buses of Service 334. I think Service 3's bunching is extremely high because you can see 2 buses almost at the peak hours and for Service 334, the chances of bunching is extremely high

  
  yes..and on many occurance...now during ntu holiday i am not sure as i seldom take 179 during ntu holidays..but during term time, bunching of 2-3 buses is like a daily basis..
