  i've got a feeling they'll construct a temporary terminal for GL1 somewhere while they make GL1 a proper bus park...

  175 may be rerouted to ply Clementi > Geylang Lor 1 loop like 62 and 11 should be extended to Sims Place.

  If I'm not wrong, service 9 was from Geylang for about 10 years already until 1992.

  Most probably due to MRT rationalisation in the eastern areas back then.

  I hope 62 and 175 will be extended there, while 11 extended to Eunos.

  Maybe shift to one of the MRT depots, probably in Tanah Merah.

  Cannot la,MRT depots won't allow Taxis to refuel.Kranji also ban Taxis now lan2 have to go AMK or Woodlands.Probably they will built a temp place nearby who knows

  Nvm about svc 9,I feel some BDK svc need to end at Eunos too to relieve the congestion

  I think 18 and 35 can be extended to Eunos.

• carbikebus

  35 good candidate,From Eunos can provide alternative to other Bedok Int Svc before resuming its original route towards TMFT.Good idea!
