Some remarks that I noticed:
* 960 to Bukit Panjang MRT is much slower than DTL, as it winds in Bukit Panjang (From BKE, go to Pending, Petir then Bukit Panjang, following the LRT tracks), where the most direct route is taken by 187, which deviate from the LRT tracks.
* 960 to Bukit Panjang MRT is much slower than DTL, as it winds in Bukit Panjang (From BKE, go to Pending, Petir then Bukit Panjang, following the LRT tracks), where the most direct route is taken by 187, which deviate from the LRT tracks.
Reply:
I am fine with the cancellation of the route using 960, the one with DTL is better.
Understood the the points u made, although I was surprised because in real life, I have known BKE PIE to be quite fast and that one 187/963/966 journey from Blk 270 to Marsiling MRT was a swoop 10 mins, while the same applied for 190 from Stevens MRT to Blk 223 was 10-15 mins. 25 mins from Blk 270 bus stop itself to Marsiling is a scare HAHAHAHAHA, is 25 mins calculated based on the worst traffic conditions on BKE towards the checkpoint?

Just discuss below.

CBD to Marsiling (Bus or MRT)

Hi, after comptempting your reasoning for Marsiling and done some additional research this is what I had observed:

  • Travelling time for 190/972 from CBD to Bukit Panjang is approx 40 mins.
  • Travelling time for 187/963/966 from Bukit Panjang to Marsiling is approx 25 mins.
  • Travelling time for DTL/CCL/TEL from Newton to Woodlands is approx 40 mins.
  • Travelling time for 187/856/925/925M/960/961/961M/963/966 from Woodlands to Marsiling is approx 10 mins.
  • Travelling time for 972M from Dhoby Ghaut to Newton is approx 10 mins.

Therefore, the conclusion that I could infer is:

  • Newton: MRT to Woodlands, transfer by bus is much faster (Time saving of 15 mins).
  • Orchard - Dhoby Ghaut: If there is direct bus to Bukit Panjang which heavily uses BKE/PIE, then the travelling time is on par with MRT (currently).
    • The travelling time to Newton actually offset the time saving of 15 mins in the first case.

Some remarks that I noticed:

  • 960 to Bukit Panjang MRT is much slower than DTL, as it winds in Bukit Panjang (From BKE, go to Pending, Petir then Bukit Panjang, following the LRT tracks), where the most direct route is taken by 187, which deviate from the LRT tracks.
