COMMUTERS who breezed through the new Boon Lay bus interchange on Sunday have a team of SBS staff to thank for their smooth ride.
Mr Ang Wei Neng, vice-president of SBS Transit (West District), said several workers stayed overnight this weekend to prepare for the depot's first day of operations.
'We had to move the equipment from the old interchange, re-programme the bus routes and check that everything was ready to go,' explained Mr Ang. 'After months of planning, this was the last stretch.'
In fact the planning had not stopped when The Straits Times visited the depot early on Sunday. Mr Ang was still in talks with staff members to change the signboards for one of the bus services.
The signs for 243W and 243G were both in red, which may confuse commuters, said Mr Ang. 'I'll have the 243G sign put on a green background, just in case.'
Such details are easy to miss at the Boon Lay depot, the busiest, largest and newest air-conditioned bus interchange in Singapore.
The $24-million facility, which opened on Sunday, serves about 150,000 commuters daily, nearly double that of the second-largest air-conditioned bus interchange in Toa Payoh. Besides residents, most are factory workers and university students.
