    Is it possible for 29 to merge with 19 to ply 29’s route, but extend to Changi Airfreight Center, loop back and terminate at Changi Village?
    They can then introduce express service 29e, stopping at Tampines Int, Tampines East MRT, Tampines Ave 7, Old Tampines Road, Loyang Ave and end at Changi Airfreight Center.
    Also they should make end-on berths at Changi Village.
