  And it won't last long
  
  So the additional buses are those SP JB registered MKIII? Do they have perm buses or uses different buses everyday?

  Just be patient. Well, BN have lots and lots of SP NAC Scanias that are left to corrode to rust and grime.

  As i gather, sv16 was extended to Bedok Interchange:
  
  1. to cover part of CSS608 route
  2. too much bus bunching on the return to Bukit Merah Int
  3. Release partial fleet for BBDEP/ARBP for departed MKIIs, as mentioned earlier by Kengkia, the scanias will come in bear in mind that BNDEP has lots of Scanias as SP role...

  Well, the Scanias themselves are nearing de-commissioning. They can't help much,can they?

  As mentioned in one of the earlier posts, sv16 could be the 1st 2 deploy new Scanias as they were the bus to deploy Volvo B10M DM MK IV
