80% of svs no more than 10 mins waiting else, else summon
-
guess SBST livery will be buying more SD then.. else with less than 10 mins frequency, those DD might not be fully filled. just like SV 76. demand for ADD is based on current frequency.. if increase further, i dun think the buses will be fill.Originally posted by sbst275:Seriously like this lots of buses would be clogging the roads for nothing
Svs like 57, 12 mins freq can... less than 10 mins is too frequent liao
further, the 10 mins or less interval is from terminal/interchange.. then on the road, sure become less or more than that one.. road condition cant control one.
just like 168/161, some time all stuck on SLE during morning peak periods due to accidents on SLE.. even they depart at 10 mins interval also, no use.. -
i think the frequency of svc 51 is quite horrible. so often got problem of bus bunching and then if miss the buses, got to wait long long; esp at night.
for eg; Towards JE direction at 10pm on 12/8 at Bras Basah Complex bus-stop, 2 DDs arrived together... -
The freq of 502 from 8 plus to 10 plus is just horrid, close to 25 minutes during the 9 pm hour according to the timing plate at orchard boulevard, and I always barely cannot board the over crowded bus. Even can board also stand all the way. Speak of being an express service. Heh. Think sometimes I take 7/106 + 99 also faster.

Its all bullshit and wayang only.
The only thing that will be confirmed are raising fares, longer waiting times and "surveys" saying that passengers are happy with the bus services. -
all the bus i take is >15mins...
can ptc explain? -
Express service does not mean with seatsOriginally posted by fmradio:The freq of 502 from 8 plus to 10 plus is just horrid, close to 25 minutes during the 9 pm hour according to the timing plate at orchard boulevard, and I always barely cannot board the over crowded bus.

Look at Sv 506 during peak hrs... -
my point is i cannot even get up the bus and horrid waiting times. Standing is more or less expected unless they have more DDs. I once ever tried waiting almost 1 hr plus for a bus that i can board just to prove my point. I admit i was stupid then haha. That was b4 iris came. with iris now i think i juz take 7.

if this happens then think SMRT hav to buy more and more new buses liao. then that time hav to guess everything: chassis, gearbox, bodywork...

mayb they will test out some better privillages and better pay to attract people to take up the job?

506 doesnt deserved the express title,Most of the time crawl on expressway.IMHO 502 & 518 are the original expressOriginally posted by sbst275:Express service does not mean with seats

190 always overtake 506 , 966 , 985
took alot of expressbus service in PIE.. the fastest one is always 190.. seldom can see 190 crawl in PIE
