what sort of plans can they have? boon lay interchange only has that one small exit for feeder buses and a even smaller bus for trunk buses. there are way more feeder buses, and there's only 1 route, 1 lane, in and out of that small interchange entrance.

this jam is not a today happen only problem, it was a day 1 problem ever since jurong point expanded and the interchange built indoors. what happened today was just an additional wait on top of the already long wait.

really a failed planning with zero foresight

all these integrated bus hubs got the same problem...

Bus stalled outside Boon Lay Bus Interchange causes traffic standstill, 45-min waiting times for buses​

A bus seen stalled outside Boon Lay Bus Interchange on Mar. 7 at around 8am was likely the reason for the traffic standstill in and around the area, Lianhe Zaobao reported.

Waiting times for some buses were as long as 45 minutes.

Bus drivers were seen allowing passengers to get off the bus before the drop-off point to enter the interchange on foot.

A member of the public tipped Zaobao off and provided a photo, which showed a bus with its bonnet apparently damaged.

The bus was seen parked near a zebra crossing at the slip road leading to the bus interchange.

It was believed to have been blocking the path of vehicles and causing the traffic gridlock around the bus interchange.

The person who tipped Zaobao off said: "There are also many maintenance projects in the Boon Lay area. Many roads are one-way traffic. Today's congestion has slowed down traffic. The taxi waiting area is also crowded."

A social media post showed the interchange crowded with long lines at around 7:30am.

Other posts, Zaobao reported, showed the intersection to be congested before 7am, making it difficult for buses to enter and exit the interchange.

Some buses apparently had to let passengers get off two or three stops in advance.

Even there is no breakdown, every even you can see snaking que going into the interchange. This happens after SMRT took over.... SBS era, there was no such snaking que every evening...

 

[deathan9el]

first of its kind
what more, the most busiest bus interchange around here?

guessed this is more chaotic than a train breakdown?

 

[eggie011]

Drove a bit around that area over the weekend. Very messy with the JRL construction ongoing. Lucky not staying there anymore.
