Yesterday saw 961C on 551 along the CTE... no pax! Poor BC had to drive by himself all the way through. Guess maybe because it was getting late (9.20pm BTW) not many would go do shopping.Originally posted by brotherchen1982:BCs stop buses at every stop along Orchard/Suntec to look out for any paxs to board the new services yesterday... -

SBS311D 577 (AM 70)
SBS416K 577 (AM 70) - First bus had 10 pax on board. -
saw lots of them lined up to stop at heeren bus stop.. the most only 5 pax only..
-
hope tis wont fail really......
-
Yes. But wouldn't extra cost, such as extra bus captains operating the services (8xno. of buses) be incurred?
-
accordingly to a report on Straits Time, 2600 pax took the City Shopper services over the first weekend..
so based on 8 services x 2 days x 25 trips , on average, each round trip have average 6.5 passengers.
hopefully it will have more pax this coming weekend. -
i don get it. no standing if no seats how
-
Not allowed to board, wait for next bus.Originally posted by FBI:i don get it. no standing if no seats how -
It is created by giving current split shift drivers a full shift by letting them drive, after morning peak is over, during daytime instead of returning for the evening peak.Originally posted by MBHawke:Yes. But wouldn't extra cost, such as extra bus captains operating the services (8xno. of buses) be incurred?
Maybe weekend other drivers will hop over to CS while the weekday drivers take off. -

soooooo expensive..
theres a problem filling up the seats, rather than creating more seats
and AMK sector CTE services like 551 577 578.... forever traffic jam.. really eat up time -
