  Heard from the news that they are amending 8 bus routes to accomodate the opening of Marina Bay Sands with the opening of new roads around the area.
  
  Though not specified which services. Anyone knows which services will be amended?

  Hope 960 can be extended too, since WRI doesn't have any bus straight to Shenton Way Ter.

  I hope they're not shortening the ECP soon. The worst thing that could happen is to send Service 30 through MBS.

  30 and 36 already face so many problems, amending them will make things even worse.
