the bulk of commuters on 167 are those travelling between sembawang-chong pang-upper thomson and in bukit merah. closing down this bus route will only strain parallel bus services like 980.
If the bus ride is going to take 1+hr, you are better off taking the train. It is faster from Tampines to Raffles Place by train, then from Alexandra to Raffles Place by bus, so why bother taking the bus?

Just people a choice to make lah. Why must cancel 167
