    PSA: If you are taking NS1 or NS2, please STILL come 10 minutes early, even thought its for the last bus. I had friends reach at the exact timing, and despite the guideline, we missed the bus (it did not come even after 20 minutes). This service does not adhere to the last bus timing guidelines.

    TLDR: ARRIVE 10 MINUTES EARLY, EVEN FOR THE LAST BUS.

    If demand is good,Maybe can try route to Northwest/West as well as Eastern.Price should be lower to be honest.$3.75 for Card and $4.00 cash.

      Tbh, 2 new routes to CCK & Bukit Panjang area & Clementi, Jurong East, Boon Lay & Pioneer route is the optimal service level.
