Your route is not bad; its in fact a good one. If you put this in route suggestions, you would have more credibility than doing such stupid things.

SBS 501 is mistake to withdraw when NEL opened.
They should only shorten 502. 502 take forever from Boon Lay to Sengkang and people will say "Waste time." when NEL open.
SBS 511 and 512 should be merged when NEL opened and call it Hougang -> Shenton Way.

Residents of Hougang, Sengkang and Punggol, I know you all are excited about the new express bus service 517, as this may be the perfect alternative to avoid the overcrowding on North-East Line MRT during peak hours.
However, I must inform you that the news is fake.
It's April Fool's Day, yo!
Happy April Fool's
Nonetheless, there are City Direct bus services that you could take to get to the city area directly, namely 660 and 672 at Hougang, 654 and 671 at Sengkang, and 666 at Punggol.
These services charge the same fares as express bus services, and call at bus stops along Shenton Way and Central Boulevard in the city area. For more information, visit www.mytransport.sg/. 
Have a good day, happy learning.

Hi mr gekpohboy, hahaha. The moment we know who writes this, we all know is a joke. We are not as what you claimed excited about this. We all know LTA will never introduce such a route. It has been more than 10 years and they are always telling all of us to take MRT. Hahaha. The only person you manage to fool is gekpohboy you yourself. Cheers. Thanks.

Why not extending it till Dhoby Ghaut MRT via SG Flyer, Raffles Ave, Stamford Rd/SMU and Dhoby Ghaut MRT and turn right into Buyong Rd and return back into the CTE back to Punggol?

Hi Mr TPS Timothy Mok, actually, MRT is faster and more convenient. Unfortunately, the capacity at peak hours is not enough. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi Mr dupdup77, the LTA would not have introduced City Direct bus services for the North-East region, if they had not cared. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi Mr iveco, I have seen your route suggestion. It would certainly provide a faster travel to the central business district. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi Mr rajboi37, the area around Singapore Flyer currently has limited catchment which do not require additional bus service. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi Mr carbikebus, yes. Based on the city direct buses, the peak hour demand is only 162 pax (morning) and 109 pax (evening). Cheers. Thanks.

Hi mr gekpohboy, you are really a joker. City direct and full day service are different. City direct is only few trips at peak hours only. You always like to create attention seeking posts just to make people notice you. Please don't do that. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi Mr dupdup77, not all express services operate beyond peak hours. Only difference is that express bus has higher capacity. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi admin, hope you can step in. It is so obvious that mr gekpohboy keeps on trying all sorts of ideas to mock people and being a nuisance in this forum. I thought administrators can punish those people who always disturbed forum peace. Cheers. Thanks.

Who’s disturbing peace, by going out of topic? Get back to discussing new bus services announced by LTA/PTO, yo? If the admin is fair, he should not make decisions based on personal agenda. I don’t mean to offend anyone, but if I had accidentally affected any person’s emotions, may I sincerely apologise to him.
Hi admin, hope you can step in. This guy gekpohboy is diverting the issue now.
As for the apology thing, where is it? Never see you apologize to me leh. Cheers. Thanks.

[Off-Topic] Dear Mdm Moderator, I don't care wat you'd do. Pls ask Mdm dupdup77 to put aside all differences & return to topic. Yours truly.
