Sembawang Interchange turned Bus Park?
-
I was so suspicious when 5 non-service Mercedes 0405G of various types nesting in Sembawang. Some non-service Merc 0405s, Scanias and a Scania ELBO could be seen. Anyone help me solve this?
-
I think someone has posted the photo in another topic regarding about this ... hmm
-
Most probably they are from the services there, but resting. Either before going on the service(waiting for the shift)or finish shift and preparing to go back to depot.
-
I'm the one who posted the pic. Anyway, I think the bendies are parked there for split shifts, a good number for 856 I think.

I believe some split shifts for 167, 856, 857 and 980 are cramped into Sembawang Int.Originally posted by Raraken:Yesterday, 18 BUSES were parked there.

Not forgetting there are buses in operation for Sembawang Int services too. -
Actually sbw int is not a bad idea to use as part depot. u could do downroutes on 169 from there or 856 etc
Q: are they running out of places to park buses?
Q: or are they on the save fuel campaign which is good

It is known that SBW-originating split shift buses will park there between splits.

I think we can add 856 and 857 to the list now...Originally posted by ^tamago^:It is known that SBW-originating split shift buses will park there between splits. -
Ehem, I had boarded before an 856 downroute, heading toward Senoko.Originally posted by off_service:There's no downroutes for 169 and 856 afaik. -
Same goes to BB Int, not as worse, but there are some frequent split shifts which will park there like 1086D and so on...

TIB905Y(Hino Volgren) was found nesting for the night at Bukit Batok. Some buses also nest at Yishun. I heard a rumour that the old Woodlands interchange near Woodlands CIQ could be a partial-depot for buses from 170 and 160. I also saw some Volvo B10M Mark III nesting at a heavy vehicle carpark before Admiralty Road West (from Marsiling Side).

Hmm, overnight parking is quite common in BB Int, its scheduled park-over, or Overnight Parking...Originally posted by tintinspartan:TIB905Y(Hino Volgren) was found nesting for the night at Bukit Batok.
