and my dearest RC neighbour let's ask ourselves what's the original purpose of estate shuttle bus first.
in my opinion the purpose of shuttle bus is to connect one estate to its nearest transportation to fill the missing part of public transportation. for RC i think many RC residents have to travel by MTR so what we need is not a bus route going to central a route to shatin a route to TKO a route to....but a SCHEDULED and FREQUENT bus route going to MTR station so that we could go to most of the places in hk.
in addition mini-buses couldn't help us especially during peak hours e.g. early in the morning when people have to go to work and go to school unless there will be 3-4 mini buses arranged we will have to wait long before we could get onto the buses. so i totally agree with patty&jimmy.
if we want to have the approval from transport dept we have to give strong reasons to support us instead of asking them to grant us so many "unneccessary routes" as this will give them an impression that we fight for fun only.作者: Arbee 時間: 2004-7-12 15:36:40
如果唔會有 shuttle bus 發展商唔應該賣樓既時候用 shuttle bus 做 selling point 囉....我相信有唔少人買樓時都會考慮到 shuttle bus 可以改善交通才決定買藍澄灣囉.....
