and also another service from eunos to geylang apart from 154 haha
There is already 24 and 154 to Eunos from Paya Lebar.
If they wanted to make this change, they should have done.
Lor 1 Geylang <> YCK Terminal for sv 76
There is not a single route connecting Geylang (bet Aljunied/Paya Lebar) to Paya Lebar road (sv 80 connects before Aljunied MRT only). This would have provided more unique connection than duplicating 154/24 to Eunos.
If 68 is short service from Eunos to Marine Terrace only, again I am surprised because this takes away direct connection to Marine Terrace from Tanjong katong / Parkway Parade. 196 does this only in one direction.

plus 28 as well.... basically new 68 + amended 76 = current 76... pretty bad idea, but it will provide better frequency for Marine Cres paxes.....
there is no space at Lor 1 Ter... best is that it loop at lor 1 or sims way...

Hi mr lemon1974, just saying out my thoughts. No flaming! If loop at lorong 1 geylang, may as well continue with present 76 to marine crescent loop. One of the main objectives for this is to have a terminating interchange for Sbs 76. So defeats the purpose if just amended to loop again albeit at another location. Cheers. Thanks.
Or can terminate at Sims Place Ter,Still got ample lots for 1 more service.

Fully support truncating 76 at Sims Pl. With all the development in the Paya Lebar MRT area, a direct link from Sims Pl/Dr is imperative. Right now, residents have to walk out to Sims Av, or to Geylang East Central. Quite inconvenient for such a short hop.
Or, I would also support a Tg Katong - East Coast Rd - Still Rd - Eunos. This sector is not served by 155, and 40 does not serve Paya Lebar MRT. Only MRT connection is to Dakota MRT. Again, Paya Lebar is becoming a regional centre, so a link other than 40 would be good.

I dun mind 76 continue with marine cres...... but no point going to eunos since there are so many duplicating services.
Still 10 times better than going to Eunos via Bedok South
63 can terminate at Bt Merah and introduce one feeder/ trunk svc looping at Rumah Tinggi.
Originally posted by carbikebus:63 can terminate at Bt Merah and introduce one feeder/ trunk svc looping at Rumah Tinggi.
A better option would be for 63 (if extended to Bt Merah Int) to ply Jln Rumah Tinggi in both directions with red plate for Bukit Merah bound trips and white plate for Eunos bound trips whilst being extended to Bt Merah Int, as per a suggestion I did in Route Suggestions.

Can also but Bt Merah long time no new svc since they withdrawn 275.And most of the svc is from other depots.
36 also can extended to BTM..

Will there still be BSEP after GCM is implemented?

Hi mr SBS3004X, of course yes. These 2 events Bsep and gcm are two mutually exclusive events. Cheers. Thanks.
Can anyone enlighten me the rationale for having a full Citaro fleet on 860 except for one O500 and an A24?
Even the Cameos are Citaros if possible.
Full non-BSEP fleet on a BSEP service.

The previous BSEP fleet of Svc 860 was transferred to BUDEP/KJDEP. The Mercedes Benz from the other side transferred over to AMDEP so its a one-to-one exchange.

So it's purely incidental? There no specific reason why 860 should preferably be staffed with Citaros? Same with the 853 full OC fleet and 855 almost-all Citaro population?
Now left with 4 Citaros at Budep/Kjdep..Think some of Amdep Citaros will be transferred back to Kjdep once TT start operation.Not suprised if OCs also transfe to Wldep.

Great! Any chance LTA will do it one shot with 68 & 76?
