Try the bus customer service hotline. I was asked the same question about my complaint a few times till I got more angry. The question then changed when I showed frustration, "do you still want to pursue the matter?" I hung up my phone! <br />Waiting 30 minutes for no.170 along Bukit Timah Road was a daily routine. Until Malaysian side started to operate a similar route, service of no.170 has improved. It's the attitude of the operator let the whole system down. Without competiton, it will be hard to see changes to provide better service. If you take feeder bus regularly, I suggest that you have your health check more often.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835404801266823652.post-6860173348897908422009-09-23T21:50:48.651+08:002009-09-23T21:50:48.651+08:00It might be a good idea to start a link where car ...It might be a good idea to start a link where car owners can advertise their usual routes either from housing board or private estates.<br />People can wait at prearranged points and be picked up.<br /><br />Its a casual system and its up to each party to arrange.<br /><br />We must find our own solutions.
