TT is only contracted to that much of service it offer to LTA bidding. So maybe no extra service for the package? or the government want to go back to it words by letting it own company making more money from us???

Whatever it is,If really TTS asking more they're really shooting themselves.GAS also doesn't earn that much from 381.

Screwed up by LTA. Bukit Batok Bus interchange will have 3 operators in Q1 2018. TTS, SMRT and SBST. LTA really screwed up big time

Putting 4 Clementi routes under Bulim was itself a dodgy move.
if it is a BBT svc, then why not operated by TTS?

Currently, the package is already full of 26 services...there was no express mentioning of any intention to include one such additional future service aside from the existing ones at the point when the tender was announced. So therefore I am not surprised.

Could have given 154,157,174 & 174e and as a tenant of Boon Lay instead of Clementi..Clementi,Kent Ridge,Buona Vista,Ghim Moh and some minor svc of J East can be under BBDEP/ARBP

SBST not counted because 852 origin from Yishun.

Wow. To bridge the Pasir Ris -- CBP link perhaps?
I guess the most likely route is to go via Somapah & Xilin Rds, skipping the stops between Expo and ITE, though this probably also means duplicating 47 for quite a while.

Effectively, there was a pair of bus stop along the expunge road...Services 5, 12, 20, 38 and Nite Owl 4N will all be affected by the relocation of bus stop.
