? Since when 190 100% bendies?Originally posted by sbst275:$500K for entire SMRT Buses
Can... 190 can remain with 1/3 SDs instead of 100% bendies, and wait to receive the $100,000 fine from PTC
????
also...985 cameo is at 655am at BB central.
TIB 1157 H
only one trip per day.

short distance svs use bendies
long distance svs use bendies/rigid...
shouldn't long distance services uses fully bendy fleet instead of using rigid+bendies...
feeders can actually use rigid buses..... maybe only Peak hrs use bendies... -
long journeys like svc 980 should use bendies instead of those ugly nissansOriginally posted by Volvo Olympian:Weird oredi..

loading of bus or loading of commuters at each place?Originally posted by sbst275:Under the new PTC standards, no more than 95% loading is allowed -
As in the bus supposedly cannot be more than 95% full at any time.Originally posted by kengkia:loading of bus or loading of commuters at each place?
I have no idea how they are going to enforce that..... -
Maybe they install those "counters"? Like the one you see on DDs like how many empty seats avaliable.Originally posted by stooper:As in the bus supposedly cannot be more than 95% full at any time.

there are already got cameras on buses already...Originally posted by SBS9889U:Maybe they install those "counters"? Like the one you see on DDs like how many empty seats avaliable. -
But the cameras won't be able to count...Originally posted by kengkia:there are already got cameras on buses already... -
The S$500k loss on buses could be due to higher diesel cost. Correct me if I'm wrong.

if this amount is annual yes......Originally posted by Manager433:The S$500k loss on buses could be due to higher diesel cost. Correct me if I'm wrong. -
i would prefer mrt but had to choose mrt due to concession for school...Originally posted by muziq bus:TRUE
Cos the west siders prefer taking the bus to town rather than the MRT.
It takes 25min to Orchard Rd..rather than train which takes at least 40mins... thats why we commuters need options and choices
btw....
985 bendy habit cameo re-appears again! yay! -
SMRT would be VERY stupid to deploy UDs on high-demand service 962. Oh yes, did you like, erm, forget 962A? Try taking a trip and chances are, you will be standing on the steps of the entrance.

Service 981 also very packed yet full fleet of Nissans...Originally posted by sBs_boy:SMRT would be VERY stupid to deploy UDs on high-demand service 962. Oh yes, did you like, erm, forget 962A? Try taking a trip and chances are, you will be standing on the steps of the entrance. -
up to you...but im still sticking to 190 from town...coz time is moneyOriginally posted by _n00b_:i would prefer mrt but had to choose mrt due to concession for school...
its more cost efficient i guess...or maybe cos its an 'ulu' busOriginally posted by TIB1018B:Service 981 also very packed yet full fleet of Nissans... -
Now, 962 and 964 are no longer Full bendy service...Originally posted by TIB1018B:Could be feeder services 300, 302, 800, 804, 806, 812, 900, 903, 912, 913 plus short distance trunk services 962 and 964.

960 as well and alongside with 184
903 has got regular 12m 0405 cameos already
913 has got regular Scania Elbo cameo already as well
also, 300 deserves the bendies. -

Sv180 shld convert to a fully 12m bus sv wif bendy cameos, everytime bendy bus not fully packedOriginally posted by Volvo Olympian:What about 180? -
CAC nissans had ever cameoed on 800 n 804 beforeOriginally posted by TIB1018B:Could be feeder services 300, 302, 800, 804, 806, 812, 900, 903, 912, 913 plus short distance trunk services 962 and 964.

Yeah true , maybe just deploy bendy on 180 on Peak hours just like 172 ....Originally posted by vivienlee:Sv180 shld convert to a fully 12m bus sv wif bendy cameos, everytime bendy bus not fully packed -
Although the bus is worse of all , but its better , if u use bendies on an low demand feeders , wouldn't you find it wasteful? So i guess rigid buses can do itOriginally posted by vivienlee:CAC nissans had ever cameoed on 800 n 804 before

Yeah, I agree... But the frequency is getting lousier now... I think they have reduced the frequency now... Sometimes, up to 5 or 6 179 buses depart BNL in the evening before a 180 comes (for 178... wait long long!Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:Yeah true , maybe just deploy bendy on 180 on Peak hours just like 172 .... ). The queue can stretch to the 174e berth. But the bendys are still not packed. Just a bit of standing... -
For service 178Originally posted by stooper:(for 178... wait long long! 
wait super LONG...and here comes a super SLOW CAC Nissan
