u stay in bedok/ toa payoh (where scania dominates)Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:I beg to defer , I get good speedy drivers that drives fast driving the O405 , scania nice rides? Are you kidding me ? Maybe not for me I guess.
my area in amk no scanias, except one or two 70s....
maybe take few times then will like it, take too much times will dislike it -
Where exactly to terminate? Build another Somapah terminal?Originally posted by SBS9828X:if SbSt were to run CCL 24 would most probably be diverted from it or maybe withdrawn... but i wont think so.... conclusion is that 24 diverted to go a longer route or terminate somewhere at expo so pax can ake mrt
-
full scania fleet on 238 and that would satisfy me
105 more mk4s and NOT mk4 DMs!
rid the 36 Mk4 DMs and that 1986A -
Somehow, I'd rather wait and see who will be running the CCL. If it is SBST, den probably 24 might have some parts of its route diverted. If SMRT take over the line, then maybe it still stick to its original route? To have the service diverted to Expo might seem a bit impossible, as there's still some private residential estate along Upper Changi Rd East (from junction Simei Rd till PIE)Originally posted by SBS9828X:if SbSt were to run CCL 24 would most probably be diverted from it or maybe withdrawn... but i wont think so.... conclusion is that 24 diverted to go a longer route or terminate somewhere at expo so pax can ake mrt
Maybe 35 be diverted to run within expo? Saw a couple of big bus stops along Changi South Ave 1. -
It is already confirmed that SMRT will be operating the CCL.Originally posted by bluezombie10:Somehow, I'd rather wait and see who will be running the CCL.

Clementi hardly gets any Scanias these days. Svc 14 used to have perm NAC Scanias in the past. Even better if 2888 were transferred to Svc 14.Originally posted by 105090:u stay in bedok/ toa payoh (where scania dominates)

den maybe svc 24 will retain its original route?Originally posted by tranquilice:It is already confirmed that SMRT will be operating the CCL. -
Maybe, maybe not. However, I still think Svc 70 makes a better CCL anchor. Cut this service and residents of YCK Rd near SER Nth & BGK Green will want somebody dead.Originally posted by bluezombie10:den maybe svc 24 will retain its original route? -
I don't know what will happen to this service, but highly possible be amended or worse to come, withdrawn.Originally posted by bluezombie10:den maybe svc 24 will retain its original route? -
Service 70 cannot be withdrawn as it doesn't follow any MRT line between Yio Chu Kang terminal and Upp Paya Lebar Rd (up to Bartley Rd).Originally posted by iveco:Maybe, maybe not.

IMO, The greatest Danger is 133...

the 903T and 1986A both rock...excellent aircon + engine!Originally posted by service_238:full scania fleet on 238 and that would satisfy me
105 more mk4s and NOT mk4 DMs!

-
you must be referring to 903X...or 904T?
1986A has nice aircon but a screechy engine.
903X does not have really good speed. 904T is better, plus it sounds a lot like a Mk3 -
24 history long service le.. maybe sbs may keep it for history purposes, and at changi airport terminal 1, only buses call there, no mrt.. so the buses still serve an importance...Originally posted by tranquilice:I don't know what will happen to this service, but highly possible be amended or worse to come, withdrawn. -
With just about 20 LO3X, svc 72 needs VO3X. Just my opinion.

Not much of a problem as T1 and T2 are linked by skytrain.Originally posted by 105090:24 history long service le.. maybe sbs may keep it for history purposes, and at changi airport terminal 1, only buses call there, no mrt.. so the buses still serve an importance... However passengers to SATS Inflight Catering Centre will be inconvenienced. -
Service 22 too.Originally posted by SBS1908B:With just about 20 LO3X, svc 72 needs VO3X. Just my opinion. -
Get ready to say goodbye to Service 24 in 2007. I don't know why, but I got this feeling that SBST would encourage AMK and Bedok residents to take the MRT instead. Worse, even though LTA has given the green light to have services operate along the MRT lines, nobody had taken any action, and they probably never will!Originally posted by tranquilice:I don't know what will happen to this service, but highly possible be amended or worse to come, withdrawn.
Back to the topic: I don't see much services need any upgrade, but Service 33 seriously needs to get rid of those old buses. Then again, there's no other bus model that handles that well on small roads like Joo Chait Road. -
Then why wait until 2007 for Bedok residents? SBST can shortened it to Bedok now if it wants to and ask Bedok residents to take the train.Originally posted by kenny_cai:Get ready to say goodbye to Service 24 in 2007.

How about the Mk3 on service 16?Originally posted by kenny_cai:Back to the topic: I don't see much services need any upgrade, but Service 33 seriously needs to get rid of those old buses. Then again, there's no other bus model that handles that well on small roads like Joo Chait Road. -
Or Mk4 on service 15?Originally posted by tranquilice:How about the Mk3 on service 16? -
Svc 70 runs from Upp Paya Lebar Rd to Nicoll Hwy. The CCL will be following almost the same path. There is a possibility of Svc 70 being shortened like 81, 82 and 103.Originally posted by tranquilice:Service 70 cannot be withdrawn as it doesn't follow any MRT line between Yio Chu Kang terminal and Upp Paya Lebar Rd (up to Bartley Rd). -
buses always full at mornig peak from yio chu kang road up to nicoll highway thats why its fequency is 3-9 mins.. chopping it will only have commuters wanting to chop of the desicion maker head..Originally posted by iveco:Svc 70 runs from Upp Paya Lebar Rd to Nicoll Hwy.

So all the more it should not be touched even when the whole CCL is up and running.Originally posted by 105090:buses always full at mornig peak from yio chu kang road up to nicoll highway thats why its fequency is 3-9 mins.. chopping it will only have commuters wanting to chop of the desicion maker head..
