Re: Alternative Travel Options
Hi
Noted about your opinion about keeping the entire line for the ease of dispersal and waiting time during large-scale disruption.
In the example of what I seek earlier, if there is a large-scale disruption where the whole line is affected (Using Pasir Ris – Boon Lay), FBB are activated based on the following cases.
- Ad-hoc/Unplanned disruption (To be confirmed/ Waiting for case study as recently there isn’t):
- Operators in charge of any affected sectors (in the case of EWL: All operators) will ply the full route – 1FBB service from end to end, e.g. Pasir Ris to Tuas Link. I had seen Tower Transit bus plying Route familiarisation for TEL TE1 to TE9 even though is under SMRT, and SMRT doing it for TE9 to TE22 even though is under Tower Transit
- In the event of large-scale disruption, special express variants will be operated, plying at KEY MRT stops (or high commuters flow stops only, e.g. Skipping stations like Kembangan, Simei)
- Planned disruption:
- Operators in charge of the affected sectors ply only its affected sectors. Commuters are advised to change shuttle to continuing their journey.
Regarding alternative, I thought that the West is similar to the East where finding alternative is easier within the same area in those sections. I only know the North is screwed-up as alternative is very complicated due to the limited bus route. Hahaha. But nevertheless, let us try our best to provide the best route, we would not know if someone managed to find another better alternative.
Thanks for your help in maintaining & updating sgWiki! :)
