CBS ties up with TransCorp to provide special charter for HCI Cross Country on Fri 25th Feb 2005

CBS will provide free shuttle services between

1. Hwa Chong Institution (HCI) and Turf City, and
2. HCI & Coronation Plaza, 6th Ave Ctr & King Albert Park (Lunch Shuttle)

to cater to the HCI students that are going for the cross country to be held at Turf City and also for students to have their lunch break at various eateries along Bt Timah. The main aim of providing the shuttle is to minimise disruption to other bus services running along this corridor. The shuttle will provide a direct connection to turf city, saving staff and students from the walk in the hot sun.

A total of 12 units of the Wright Volvo Super Olympian will be deployed on the Turf City route, in addition to supplementary buses from TransCorp while 10 units of Volvo Mk4 DM3500 will be deployed on the lunch shuttle.

Buses for the lunch shuttle will depart from HCI between 1200 - 1330 hrs on a periodic basis. Thereafter, all buses serving along this route will complement the Turf City route.

Buses for the Turf City shuttle will depart from HCI between 1245 - 1430 hrs or until all students and staff have left HCI for Turf City, whichever is later. They will depart HCI on an ad-hoc basis.

After the meet ends, the following shuttle services will be provided.

1. Turf City - HCI - Toa Payoh Int - Ang Mo Kio Int (1750 1800 1815 1830)
2. Turf City - HCI - Orchard MRT - Dhoby Ghaut MRT - City Hall MRT (1745 1805 1825 1840)
3. Turf City - 6th Ave Ctr - Bt Batok Int (1755 1805 1815 1825 1835)
4. Turf City - 6th Ave Ctr - Choa Chu Kang Int (1755 1805 1820 1835)
