The 3-Door MAN A95 (Euro 6 Batch 2) should be launched on this service to cater those in HarbourFront, Upper Paya Lebar, and Geylang East Central (or the 3-Door Alexander Dennis Enviro500 Bus). The elderly’s at the Geylang East Polyclinic will then have two more service to Sims Place and Sims Drive rather than only one service, it also takes quite a lot of waiting time. We can minimise that by amending service 155 to loop at Sims Drive and Sims Place from either Toa Payoh or Bedok. Currently only services 80 and 134 have double-deck Buses whereas service 155 does not have double-deck bus along Geylang East Central. Have Service 155 to loop at Sims Drive & Sims Place then continue its original route to Bedok as only service 134 goes straight from Sims Drive to Geylang East Central whereas service 64 turns left from Sims Drive to Aljunied Road and Service 137 turns right in the opposite direction.
