  Hi, i'm interested in the lengths of buses.
  
  i only know olympians and B9s are 12m, but i'm not sure about others.
  
  In HK, lengths of buses determine the routes they ply, some double decker tridents designed for the peak route are only 10.3m long.
  
  what about the new scania, the old mercs and bendys?
  
  thanks

  All Volvo standard-length buses are 12m. 997A is 14.5m.
  Dart is 9.4m.
  SBST O405's are 11.650m, while SMRTB's are 11.950m. Lance is 11.735m. You can easily take them as 12 metre buses if you do not require particular accuracy.

  Yes. I'm still wondering who put 12m in that wiki page.
