1112L's next stop LED does not have "Please move to the rear" notice... looks so much neater.

Remember Zonda, the Chinese company which Neoplan said was copying its products, and that Zonda sued Neoplan for defamation over Neoplan's comments.
And that guy which posted here about finding a distributor for Zonda's buses?
Now there are at least 3 Zonda YCK6129HGs in Singapore.
PC118P (White with grey skirt and blue patterns), PC5588H (Yellow) and PC6688X (Pink).

Actually, i think whole fleet next stop LED all removed the "Please move to the rear" le
Took TIB1173K (stuck next stop at BB int when heading to Marina Centre) and TIB539X today. Also don't have the Please Move To The Rear. It's like the first time when the system got activated and the "System Under Test" was removed.
Think the Please move to the rear no effect de. Sometimes also redundant when bus is empty haha.

Bus lanes will be implemented at three more locations from November 17. They will be marked by the usual yellow lines along Commonwealth Avenue, Commonwealth Avenue West and Queensway.
There are now a total of 156 kilometres of normal bus lanes and 22 kilometres of full-day bus lanes marked by red lines since expansion of the bus lane scheme started in June this year.

The more recent bus lanes seemed to be focused on roads that run parallel to EWL. -

It's totally useless, since the intended recipients of the message are in front of the LED and can't read the message at all - only after they moved into the rear do they see them, which by then is already too late.
Good that they removed the annoying message - the whole thing now shows so much more clarity.

Transitlink's online bus guide just changed the colour of SMRT Buses on the bus enquiries to red...or maybe I just noticed it. I remembered it was orange.

LTA's reply is simply crap! Public buses are meant for transporting the masses and in fact help to reduce the demand for precious road space. Imagine a bus with modest average capacity of 30pax. If these 30 pax were to abandon public transport and own a car; say 3pax per car; meaning 1bus:10 car, which is occupying more road space and creating more pollution? It's just a lame excuse to milk more $$$! Who knows? the updated PTC guideline to force operators improve service freq is another ploy to milk more ERP $$$?Originally posted by ^tamago^:
"Meanwhile, Prof Hensher yesterday advocated axing ERP charges for public buses. Operators in Singapore must pay the tolls. He said public buses should be exempt, especially when the authorities are trying to get more people onto public transport.
The LTA, responding to media queries on his suggestion, said public buses have to pay ERP because they occupy road space like other vehicles and contribute to congestion.
SBS Transit estimates that it paid $1.5 million in ERP charges in the first half of this year, while SMRT paid $1 million over the year which ended in March."
