This is third SBS bus-related fatal accidents in past month
A crane operator was killed when a double-decker SBS bus crashed into the aerial work platform he was standing on.
The victim has been identified as 57-year-old Tan Ngai Tiam.
The accident happened at 9.45 am today at the junction of Jurong Port Road and Ayer Rajah Expressway beneath Corporation Flyover.
Police said the crane was stationary on the road shoulder with its aerial work platform extended.
Mr Tan was on the platform, painting the flyover.
The top deck of a bus on route 154 hit the work platform.
The impact threw Mr Tan out of the platform and onto the road.
He died on the spot.
The bus driver and his four passengers were not hurt.
Responding to queries from 938LIVE, SBS Transit says the bus driver is about 30 years old.
He's been with the company for 2 years and had a good driving record.
This is the third reported fatal accident involving SBS buses in the past four weeks.
Last month, a motorcyclist was killed after colliding with a bus beneath Loyang Flyover.
Four days after that, a pedestrian was run over by another bus near the Buona Vista MRT station.

Worker painting flyover dies after bus hit cherry picker
A 57-year-old worker died on the job after he was hit by a double-decker bus and sent crashing to the ground.
Witnesses said that the impact threw Tan Ngai Tiam, an odd job worker, off a cherry picker and onto the pavement.
Mr Tan was hoisted four metres above ground and was painting the underside of a flyover near Jalan Ahmad Ibrahim when the accident happened.
He sustained serious head injuries and was pronounced dead at 9.40am on Saturday.
The driver of the SBS Transit bus service number 154, who was heading towards the Boon Lay Interchange when the accident happened, was unhurt.
SBS Transit says that the bus driver has been suspended pending investigations.
The company will offer assistance to the bereaved family.
Mr Tan had taken up the painting job just last month.

But the driver was not at fault at all, it is just so unlucky for him! It will be rather unfair if the company is to fire him in future. -
