JALAN BESAR MRT STATION TO GEMS WORLD ACADEMY SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE BY MRT, LRT OR BUS

The walking distance from a HDB flat to the nearest bus stop in our opinion is anywhere between 200-500 metres plus/minus 100 metres. According to a report by Statista, in 2020, the average walking distance on a commute trip in Singapore amounted to 576 meters.

However, this statistic includes the average walking distance to all forms of public transport, including buses, the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), and Light Rail Transit (LRT). Thus 500m to us is like the magic number.

The route data shows transit routes via train or subway (MRT), tram, light rail or monorail (LRT), or bus depending on the transport mode selected above with the remainder of the trip being accomplished via walking. The default transport mode setting is Transit.

For every station/stop, there is a corresponding unique MRT/LRT station code or Bus stop code (which you can find on every bus stop or train station) and the start time displayed as well. We will display the right arrow sign should there be any transfer needed, from train to bus or bus to LRT/tram for example.

For bus trips, we will display multiple bus line service nos if available for your trip in order for you to reach your destination faster by reducing your waiting time at the bus stop. It's always good to plan your trip in advance.

For the trip above, bus service numbers available along the route are :-

• 65


• 117

For all transit trips from start to end, we will display all intermediate MRT stations or bus stops as well so that you can easily track the progress of each route while on your way and plan ahead for the next part of the journey.

• There are 2 public transport operators running the route above. They are SBST and SMRT .

The journey planner is mainly focused in providing detailed transit route guide information by public transport to the user. Thus we do not have much information when it comes to specific walking directions. eg. Head North on Street A, Turn Right to Road B, Cross the Road for example. We do not provide any street or road names as well for walking directions.

We noticed that if the walking directions will be quite far from point A to B, the journey planner is going to be very long and will overwhelm the user viewing it. This will lead to a poor experience for those using the travel guide overall. Thus we only provide a simple generic guide when it comes to walking directions.

You can still make use of the route map above which has walking routes drawn as well (dark grey color) to guide you along the way to your destination.
