I saw Scania Kub on 230 yesterday
Is there only one bus operating on 230?
Bus 230 will be my Number 1 Choice to board from 24 September onwards
Its clear nobody here really takes 238. Service 238 is a bus that is packed the whole day there is no way it can be amended in anyway its best left as it is and if any changes thats needed for 238 is deployment of DDs. So to have 230 is the best choice.
They could have just added more stops to Svc232 & Svc238 which are already in the vicinity.
One Svc serves from Toa Payoh and one Svc serves to Toa Payoh.
