LTA should have build a air-con bus terminal at the airport and use the LRT to link it to everywhere in the airport. spend so much bulid air hub, not even a proper bus terminal in the airport.
Marina Centre Bus Terminal is a roadside terminal along Raffles Boulevard and underneath the Benjamin Shears Bridge. also another one kind. bus parked along the road and every year F1 bus service get disruptions. again not all the people like to take MRT all the time. So if LTA can improve the whole city area bus service will be good for everyone.
Airport need a centralise Terminal..Which has easy access to T3/T1/T2 and alternative got feeder going to all those Terminals using a mix of bendy/Sd buses
That way,Svc like 27 and 858 doesn't need 31-32 buses.

and it still does not explain why there are sv36 (GA) buses picking up paxes at T3/T1
SBST issue a poster when T3 open, clearly mention that sv36 will proceed to T1/T2 before carring to the city...
if GA want to change the practise, it is fine..but they need to put up posters to inform the paxes, so that the paxes can take other bus services to T2 to take sv36... if i remember correctly, the destination at the bus stop at T1/T3 for sv36 show Tomsonlin Road..
You got a point there... Then it's probably miscommunication on SBST and GA's part. Esp with the contradictory info on bus guides and in CGA itself... V hard for GA and subsequently ita BCs to get a clue too.

Such a practice is common in Perth, especially by TT Perth. I had to do that at Elizabeth Quay bus station (Espalande Busport) all the time.
The only difference is you are not charged anything extra for changing buses. You are also not charged if you changed your mind within 15 minutes.

I am not surprised 518 (EB) can even skip Bedok North Road, and go by KPE and Bartley Road East but 518 (WB) remains the same.

I'm more suprised how you post more nonsense after all these years
Today S3 got 4 DDs for the morning shift,Afternoon till now i see around 2-3 DDs.
Coming back... hope LTA finds a solution for CGA to have a centralized bus terminal that is DD friendly.
Well 858 might certainly need some to avoid excess road usage by the bendies
But i heard (im not totally sure abt this) that aft the jewelll is built, there will be like this "centralised" bus terminal so that DDs can be used at the airport? Now cannot hav DD wad and yet so many high demand services to airport sia

The most we can hope for is for a terminal to be built at the former T1 carpark...
It is already confirmed that Jewel will not feature a terminal...

Speaking of MCT, there isn't any principal operator for this terminal.

Yup i think so. And somehow we r talking abt bus terminals alr haha (wrong thread?)

MCT is operated by SBST
MCT operated by SBS and SMRT i thought?

Can say also,SMRT only S171 & S960 right?TT got S77 & S97?
Is Hafiz Malik the senior transport planner here?Sound so familiar

TT 77 97
SMRT 75 171 960

MCT will be under joint SBST/SMRT control.
43 has too many off peak DDs.
Split shift 34 BCs can drive DDs to Punggol, then jump to SDs from 43/43M at Punggol, then the 43/43M BCs drive the DDs.
Jumpbus without crossover, maximising use of buses.
Obviously the SBS33XX buses will be abandoned in LYDEP when all the ZF Wrights are taken.

Who say they dont prioritise customers over BCs?We request that S43 last bus stops before turning right to Buangkok Dr also they don't care
