Agreed with most except 78, 100 and 161.
78 and 100 are made to bunch by design. Both 78 & 100 leave at a frequency of 04-05 mins during its prime time in AM/PM peak to cater to load.
78 because it caters to all industrial blocks that start at same time. 100 due to no DDs, have to bunch SDs to manage load.
161 is not supposed to bunch, but invariably does due to high frequency and traffic along TPE.
4x of 74 bunch up in the morning, towards Buona Vista. Is it me or svc74 freq has improved? It's the most frequent one compared to 105, 151 etc.

99s loading is quite erratic. Sometimes same slot DDs are packed to door, sometimes empty... One route where I am still to figure out how the loading works.

74 comes every 04-05 mins during morning peak towards BNV. Hence, it is usual for 3 buses to bunch up by the time they are at Clementi Road. 4 is too much IMO.

Most probably the famous Bt Timah jam?

agreed...but i do know some 99 BCs like to run and dun follow schedule, causing frequency for some parts to screw up...
For Jurong West side, i guess it has got to do with what time the school ends...a few BCs know that school will end this particular time and therefore runs abit faster so that they wun get the crowd..have seen this before...
Yesterday around 2pm, both SBS8592G and SBS7551G (2mins apart) were packed with school students...
