Sv 176 didn't have DD, but SBS deployed more buses as like Sv 27 or 67 (Last time)Originally posted by icydevilvic88:For mi, i feel tat Bendy is actually better den DD, from wat i always board it to and fro my workplace.. (Eg: TIB1102R, TIB979J, TIB869T, TIB871K, etc..) Bendy has actually more place for standing den DD, as DD's 2nd floor dun allow passengers to stand.. and also b'cos of the height limits.. Hillview Rd is one of the example.. For Hillview Rd, there is a height limit of 4.3M cos of the Malaysia railway tracks.. I wonder if last time when 176 was under SBS, whether got deploy DD buses? If got, can it pass thru this limit?![]()
Tat's b'cos they wan to increase the standing capacity for the bendy bus so tat more passengers can board the bus.. notice tat some bendy bus (eg: TIB869T & TIB871K) has single seats at the side b/w the entrance and the nearest exit, i think it's juz b'cos of tat bahz.. now during morning peak hrs(around 6 to 7 plus in the morning) alreadi packed almost full wif ppl, even with bendy buses.. as for DD buses, i think there are more sttting capacity den standing capacity.. esp at the 2nd floor where passengers are not allow to stand..Originally posted by sbst275:Sv 176 didn't have DD, but SBS deployed more buses as like Sv 27 or 67 (Last time)
But bendy have 50% lesser seats than DD
But Sv 176 frequency now very badOriginally posted by icydevilvic88:Tat's b'cos they wan to increase the standing capacity for the bendy bus so tat more passengers can board the bus.. notice tat some bendy bus (eg: TIB869T & TIB871K) has single seats at the side b/w the entrance and the nearest exit, i think it's juz b'cos of tat bahz.. now during morning peak hrs(around 6 to 7 plus in the morning) alreadi packed almost full wif ppl, even with bendy buses.. as for DD buses, i think there are more sttting capacity den standing capacity.. esp at the 2nd floor where passengers are not allow to stand..![]()

No, it used single deckers, consisting of MK2 and MK3.Originally posted by icydevilvic88:I wonder if last time when 176 was under SBS, whether got deploy DD buses? If got, can it pass thru this limit?![]()
not every trunk bus service are like 960 like tat, i mean almost every bus(or i can say is all svc 960 bus) tat are deployed are all bendy buses.. As SMRT onli have around 200~300(around tat range) bendy buses, the no. of bendy buses deployed on 176 will be limited.. you mean tat 1 time is on weekdays or weekends? unless SMRT is willing to buy more bendy buses and scrap off all Nissan Diesel old buses, den maybe in the near future, svc 176 will not have any more 12m buses like wat u say, maybe on sat/sun can still have tat la cos very little ppl taking tat svc..Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:.got one time waited 176 pm peak at 15mins and somemore the bus is 12m nornal bus and is 3/4packed.![]()
