Is Bus Faster than Train from Bukit Panjang to Pasir Ris?

[@missyymango]

It is actually really impressive for the bus to reach Pasir Ris 10 minutes longer than the MRT route

[@glitchFan2428]

Indeed it is, there's definitely potential there

[@SuccessforLifester]

You should explore the difference in timing between Tampines central to Yishun MRT by bus and train.. can be a big difference

[@lzh4950]

Also heard some one claim that if there're traffic jams, Punggol-Tampines by bus (34 I think) takes about as long as by train (~1h). So far I haven't been hit by jams though, & I usually clock much less time than that; more like 1/2h

[@SuccessforLifester]

@@lzh4950 This 969 during off peak timing or even 34, going by Tampines expressway is very fast. But as you say, if there is a jam, then could be quite bad. Late night for example, to return to tampines from Yishun, takes about 30 mins

[@672thesketchgirl]

969: (sweats)

[@672thesketchgirl]

An alternative is to take 27 to Sengkang and then transfer to 965 somewhere

[@SuccessforLifester]

@@672thesketchgirl I like 27. Very fast..

I really love your collab videos! Cant wait to see you collating with more bus enthusiasts such as SBS2831G Transportation and TIB1234T!

[@YHTheGamer]

Haha everytime you collab with someone, they will have at least knock their head on the bus once and that's kinda funny hehe Great timing btw, honestly I thought it will be around 1 Hour and 30 Minutes but you guys are 15 minutes faster, nice race and collab as always Maxson!

[@glitchFan2428]

Given the timing, I’d rather bus. Cause more likely you’ll get a seat and the seats are soft! More calming and peaceful too…

[@glitchFan2428]

I agree. Relaxing to take bus

[@yuumaamayuki]

Can sleep also haha. I hate trains coz its just too boring standing most of the time waiting to arrive on my station. I always ride random bus routes to find fastest route from West to East and vice versa and sometimes I do it coz I get to see different sceneries go thru different estates of SG

[@TIB1106EProductions]

@@glitchFan2428 me too

[@Legofan5445]

It was probably due to the rain which results in slower traffic, and of course the transfer waiting times.... And yes i bet the buses win if it was from North like Woodlands or Yishun to East like Changi Airport or Punggol...

[@chiaseelee]

In Woodlands bus interchange, u can take bus 161 if the bus come early, and in bus stop after Punggol Road, u can change either bus 39 or 109 to Pasir Ris. Or if u are from Bukit Panjang Pending LRT station to Pasir Ris, u can take bus 966, transfer bus 23 at bus stop Infineon PIE, and later transfer bus 15 at tampines avenue 1, it may be faster than go through woodlands interchange

[@slwsglz]

161 do not stop at bus stop after punggol road.instead 161 turn to punggol road only because it go to punggol road then sengkang then hougang.

[@lzh4950]

Probably depends on what time you take the bus; 966 isn't very frequent; 23 I remember runs only 1x/15min at night, while 15 goes thru Tampines Town Centre, which is jammed during evening peak hours

[@andrewsitu3472]

Why go via Woodlands? Might as well take 171 to Yishun where you can transfer to 39 directly.

[@672thesketchgirl]

161 then cross the road along Punggol Road to transfer to 89

[@isaacfung622]

Future suggestion: Is Not Changing Train Faster than Changing Train from Chinatown to Botanic Gardens? Route 1: Downtown Line: 10 stops Route 2: North East Line ➡ North South Line (Dhoby Ghaut) ➡ Downtown Line (Newton): 2 stops + 3 stops + 2 stops = 7 stops Route 3: North East Line ➡ Downtown Line (Little India): 3 stops + 3 stops = 6 stops Route 4: North East Line ➡ Thomson East Coast Line (Outram Park) ➡ Downtown Line (Stevens): 1 stop + 6 stops + 1 stop = 8 stops Route 5: North East Line ➡ East West Line (Outram Park) ➡ Circle Line (Buona Vista): 1 stop + 5 stops + 3 stops = 9 stops

[@andrewsitu3472]

BPJ to PSR? 966 to Jalan Kollam Ayer, then 23 to Temasek Polytechnic followed by 15 to Pasir Ris. Most of it is express.

[@dereksg7510]

Maybe if you had this race way back in 2016 aka sv 187 70-80 km/h 0405 days, a few more minutes of precious time could be shaved off. We all know how infamously slow the initial acceleration of SG Citaros are in LTA config.

[@SGCandSGYProductions]

Hey uh, actually I planning to go from Choa Chu Kang to Pasir Ris but I take MRT to khatib then take 39 to Pasir Ris via Punggol as that route is long

[@mukesh7337]

You could take 171 from bukit panjang to yishun and then can take 39 from yishun to pasir ris. It would be faster as it required to change 2 bus alone instead of 3

[@glitchFan2428]

The mandai section of 171 takes a very long time and it makes a large detour to Chong pang and back. But if 39 doesn't screw up then might have a chance ah haha. I chose the 168 route cos less traffic lights also

[@mukesh7337]

@@glitchFan2428 Yes,171 takes around 30mins

[@glitchFan2428]

I guess a lot boils down to luck on the transfer 😁😁

I didn’t know SMRT Citaro has those kind of train announcement s!

[@yuumaamayuki]

They should revive the 989 to link Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Panjang to Changi Airport via TPE/SLE route and stops at Jln Kayu. It'll certainly improve the journey time then it was before vying Bukit Batok/Gombak and PIE lol taking. I still remember the days where 989 was the longest bus route (from and to CCK) and the one with most bus stop of 101, i think Also, imo isn't it quite dumb to put 161 & 168 on the West Exit boarding side rather than East Exit side coz 161 & 168 always need the go round, pick up passengers and go round AGAIN to exit. Waste time really and bring more congestion if you think about it. If on East side, they'll quickly pick up passengers and exit the interchange fast reducing time in the space constrained interchange with almost 40+ bus services. LIKE REALLY, you could just fill up boarding slot as there are free boarding slots on the East Side

[@timelapsesofsingapore5674]

Should have a service from Bukit Panjang or Choa Chu Kang to the northeast at least

To be very honest..... I still prefer to take MRT to Pasir Ris honestly..... EWL-DTL only.

17 is from bedok though and its a big circle cos 168 goes towards pasir ris before bedok

I think MRT is faster because you have to ride on 2 lines. first, ride the Downtown line until Tampines, then ride the East-West line to Pasir ris, and i think thats the result before this video is created.

Time aside, you’re more likely to find a seat on the bus than the train.
