Singapore Buses route 53

Service 53 is a long trunk route running from Bishan and looping at Changi Airport, travelling via Serangoon, Lorong Ah Soo, KPE/TPE, Pasir Ris, and Tampines Expressway (TPE). It has an express sector between Tampines Road and Pasir Ris Drive 12 (KPE/TPE) and between Loyang Avenue and Airport Boulevard (TPE). Some of them do rather terminate at the Tampines Logistics Park (Greenwich Drive).

Liow Jian Chong is the one who claim their rep for the bus service since November 2011 and is always frequent, since he was dropped out from Tampines Secondary School (I saw him at the SNO Room just now) and moved to Pathlight School until 2013. It was therefore shifted to ITE College Central for few months in 2013 (Pastry Buffet) before going to Rapid Transit Engineering in ITE College West from January 2014. It was appeared in October 2014.
