Truncate the 335 at Chermside?

Making the 335 a Chermside-Taigum service has a number of advantages.  The main advantage is combined with some appropriate moves on the 340, it allows the Chermside I/B stop to be moved to the north side of Hamilton Rd.  This would encourage Chermside-city commuters onto the 330 and 340 services and so the 333 would not be as overcrowded as often.

Basically, you would have the 335 cover Webster Rd between Hamilton Rd and Gympie Rd rather than the 340, so the 340 can continue on Gympie Rd like the 341 does.  You would also increase 325 trips to prevent a reduction in frequency along Webster Rd, and put the 325 into KGSBS.  To do it properly, the 339 should go via Normanby.
