Most probably do 461 for 2 trips then do 801 for 2 trips before going back to depot for swing break… TTS is good in squeezing every sweat from their Split shift 5 days BCs
Hmm I wonder how LTA decides which express feeder services get loop operation and which ones get unidirectional. I partially expected this to be a loop service also following 460’s return to looping express feeders, even if demand isn’t super high in the reverse peak. looks like a good service on paper, reaching into the depths of yishun as what the express feeder services were originally meant to do (something I feel only 452 and 455 do a particularly good job of)
Finally after a long time
While the route was shorter than expected , I got high hopes for this svc
What on earth only four stops??????????????????????????
