they are still running the line for a reason, you notice these number has been running for ages 20yrs at least. If it is not effective or low ridership, they would have stop long ago.

They need to fully utilise their resources, instead of running more than one buses on a shorten route, they might as well run one bus on the whole entire route.

Last time it is common to change many buses or many buses and MRT to reach one destination de. Actually even until today, some places also need to change more than 2 buses to get to one location.  [rolleyes]

Bus 21 is a connection for ppl in Whampoa to Novena MRT. Also for factory workers in Kallang from Novena MRT.

 

And ppl who visit TTSH.

They really fully maximise this bus 21, one bus go to so many places! They should shorten this bus route by running another alternative bus lo. If not people need to go to one place have to pass by all other places before reaching.  [dizzy]

bus captain can do this for 150 min route

Those drivers driving the 150 mins route really must have good mental mindset, not easy to run on the road for 2 hours plus with all the stress and road traffic condition, also having to stop on every bus-stop along the route. Dont think i can make it. Lol.

I took a bus from my place to city centre one fine Sat afternoon. I will say its very good! I remember during my schooling days , not all buses are air con and I always pray I get one. (I use bus stamp and its doesn't matter if it cost more) . I did not have a seat and I stand half the journey at the center part where there is a back cushion. I then drop and took mrt back. Seriously I find it rather relaxing, putting on my wireless ear piece listening to the sound track of " A star is Born" .

 

Imagine if its electrical, its going to be even better.

You took what type of buses during your schooling days where there is a back cushion at the centre?

Then you see how many people will complain.

 

76 was shorten to Eunos when previously served up till Marine Parade. Introduced a new 150 to go Marine Parade. Many commuters complained about need to transfer and started a petition to reinstate the old 76. And like you have expected from LTA, it didn't work and people LLST. I think until now still got complains from Marine Parade residents.

If it is shorten to Eunos, it means ridership is low.

 

Depends on how many residents complain lor.

 

Maybe need >9999 to be effective

 

By the way, service number 134 takes over the chopped route of 76.
