Staff Cecil Lee Posted April 19 Author Staff Share Posted April 19 1950's to1960’s Simple & sturdy concrete bus shelter design. No lightning rod protection on the roofing unlike present ones, today. Source and Credit: Instead of the modern spaced out bollards, there is a small concrete wall to prevent vehicles intruding into the bus stop. And an unfriendly one at that. Where if one notice, the potential passenger needs to first mount down the platform before he/she can enter the bus. In the past, no such thing as elderly or disabled friendly. The concrete roof is also slightly slanted to the rear of the bus stop for efficient rain-flow drainage. ++++ Today, Year 2024, this is what remains of Lorong Kemunchup road This area once housed many factories. Including the famous Ford factory and Hume industries concrete pipes for civil engineering works. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted September 15 Author Staff Share Posted September 15 1990's The benefit of an expansive shelter is its enhanced capability to shield commuters from rain. However, a notable drawback is the presence of only two round stone seats, which limits seating availability. Consequently, only two or three commuters can observe the approaching bus, while others are unable to view the arrival of the buses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
