  Do you think LTA should install new bus stops opp Blk 239 and Opp Blk 401A CP? To help folks there get to Bangkit

  Took it at night. Kena 131R. Wah pathetically slow. Worse than last time. Guess run time really long since you guys say its 45mins run time. More convenient but slower journey. Btw the stop below 518 got no shelter. its a new stop. Not even a seat. I doubt anyone will want to wait 30mins by standing. Hope LTA can build at least a BASIC shelter here. That should improve the ridership. Improve frequency also. I saw a slight increase in people taking 922 now.

  think 37 mins running time is more than enough, making waiting time to 22 mins if continue to use 2 buses.

  Service 922 (Opp Blk 271 Bus Stop) Roster.
  
  
  
  Newly add-on 922 column.
  
  Btw, it surprises me that there is only one pair of bus stops along Jelapang Road.
  
  Used to have 2 pairs of bus stops along Jelapang Road (before Greenridge Shopping Centre when 345 was in operation back in 1998.

  922 has 2 buses now. Not 1. The other bus as of now I ain't sure.
  
  On Sunday, only 131R and 132M did 922 because of the MP's opening ceremony for 922 at Segar. That's why 128B 129Z 130T were at Bukit Panjang parking.
  
  Running time for 922: 46 - 48 minutes.
  Frequency: 25 - 30 minutes (?!)

  To some extent its not as populated as other towns.
  
  But the lack of demand for feeder services is due to the long wait for the bus.
  
  30 minutes frequency.... Not very likeable to those who want to travel around. Only Segar residents would consider taking owing to the fact that they have to walk a 10 min suntan walk across the field to the nearest LRT station.
  
  The rest would prefer 920 over 922 due to the frequency.
  
  There are more people taking 700 along stops called by 921 after 921 merge with 700. Back then, 921's frequency was 17 - 22 minutes. Its currently about 9 - 14 minutes for route 700.

  Teck Whye and CCK ppl will kill you. and it increases the run time for 190 also.. and there's no parallel rd north of Bt Panjang Rd. the road network is screwed in a sense that Bt Panjang has one main road in and one main road out. There's no access road from the North west or north east side (expressway slip road directly home sounds good ah). So eventually everyone has to cluster themselves at bus stops along this road for a quick way to town.

  Today's fleet:
  SMB128B and TIB797S (perm 922?). As usual, TIB737R goes missing.......

• TIB657M

  2 Mar 10, 14:32

  No place to park for the 920/922 parking lot. The BC has to do roundbout in the interchange so as to wait for the front bus to go and find the space to park.

• TIB657M

  2 Mar 10, 14:33

  So, how about merging 920 and 922 to form an intratown service?
