      Hurdi. I share the same feelings and thoughts with Stephanie. 665 and 951E do not follow the same route. Stopping 587 is a very bad news to many of us from various stops that now do not have access any of these bus services.

    Hi, why are you stopping the service of 587? This will cause lots of inconveniences to the people living in woodlands going to city to work. Please do not stop!
