Sorry for bringing this up, but I feel that these new bus stops could be related to the new West Coast service...

Hi mr array88, since you spotted new bus stops along penjuru rd, it should be correct. They cannot build bus stops for nothing. Cheers.
SMRT should purchase ADL Enviro200 Dart single door to replace the current PA Lances... + Enviro200 for 178

Proposed route could be sv 144.
Jurong East Interchange
Jurong East Central
Jurong TownHall Road
Teban Gardens Crescent
Penjuru Road
West Coast Road
Pandan Gardens
Jurong TownHall Road
Jurong East Central
Jurong East Interchange
* I think there is high probability of the route getting introduced to do Penjuru given the new HDB complex opening up on Penjuru.
* If this route is introduced, in hindsight, 143M was a bad decision, because this route could have been introduced as 144 and ply Teban Gardens on way back instead.
* Will give direct access to commercial/industrial workers along Teban Gardens Crescent, Penjuru road that do not have service today (where sv 30 plies only in one direction).

If I were SMRT, I wouldn't buy the ADL DDs, but instead buy the Volvo B9TLs Wrights. Same as SBS Transit's Wrights, but with ZF gearbox and Ventura doors... Follow HK style.
Why must they die2 buy B9TLs when the E500s is much more powerful and also efficient?
Spotted a new bus stop along Punggol Place opposite the existing sv 6N bus stop, before the entrance of Punggol Temp Int. It was under construction when I spotted it a few weeks ago..

Hi mr array88, the previous bus stop was too old and they replaced with a modern one. This bus stop used to house sbs 82 on its way to punggol road end but it was re-routed to start from punggol int. Currently this newly constructed bus stop has no services. Cheers.

why would you buy B9TLs when SBST already has them? SMRT doing the right thing getting different buses on roads rather than let Volvo monopolize Singapore market.

but array has a point... why did they make a new bus stop when there is no service calling on the old bus stop in the first place?

Hi mr busanalyser, I wondered why. There will be no new bus services around this area at least until 3rd quarter 2015. Cheers.
SBST Sunlong spotted on TPE entering PSR

Hi mr busanalyser and mr array88, the new bus stop should be for sbs 62, 82 and 119 to have an extra calling stop at this road called Punggol place before turning into Punggol interchange. This makes it slightly easier and more convenient for some blocks of Punggol Arcadia and regalia btos. Cheers.

I would rather that one of the services, preferably 119 can go inside Punggol Field looping point and go to interchange, as the blocks over there have no option but to walk 500-600m to interchange/MRT.
How about sv 30, 51 or 197 getting BSEP fleet add...?
these services totally ignored by LTA... even though the loading on all of them is quite high... suggest SLBP add BSEP DDs to all these 3 services... also has many SP to offer.
The problem for these svc is that they run parallel with other svc almost all the way
I feel that Ghim Moh and Buona Vista Bus terminals can be merged into a single bus interchange using the plot of land just outside Buona Vista Mrt next to Vista Point.Yeah, 92 can be made to operate on Sundays as it will be the only service going into Ghim Moh if there is a merger between the two terminals.I feel that it is better to have a single bus interchange loacated beside Buona VIsta Mrt than to have two terminals less than 1km apart from each other.

Yes actually could have planned for integrated interchange @ Vista Green

I think some of these are candidates for BSEP fleet add... but did you see if additional trips have been added?
There will be a Mandai Bus Depot within Thomson Line - Mandai Depot beside SLE, near Wlands Ave 12 Exit, as stated in Thomson Line's 8-Year Progress Blog:
http://thomson-line.blogspot.sg/2014/02/into-woodland.html?m=1
For more of Thomson Line's info, do checkout their blog...
Woodlands Regional Temporary Interchange is also coming up for refurbish & enhancement project to the current Woodlands Regional Interchange. This will probably see new linkage to Thomson Line - Woodlands Station in the current interchange. The temporary interchange will be located infront of Woodlands Station.

a lot of the timetable change are related.. 91 turn WAB, so 13/74/76 ETT are affected (although no real change in the timing)..
change in no of trips for 179 affect 241/242 ETT as well.
