        How to make 66 more profitable other than amending this service to cater to new demand?

      66’s initial route when first introduced was Tampines Int to Jurong East Int and vice-versa. And also it shares long duplicating sectors with other services hence the major amendment.

      My first time riding Tower Transit Singapore bus today! I took Service 66 on A Mercedes Benz Citaro from opposite Science Centre to Jurong East MRT station.
