  Fleet Additions? Also, what are the final redeployments for Service 21? Blur liao..

  hahaha.

  AM hands over 2 regular WDD duties to BN and BN changed the 2 WDD to WSD duties. AM then adds to 2 split ADD duties. BN converts 2 ADD duties to WDD duties.

  8266 and 8322 added in to do the WSD duties. 7422 and 7442 did the 2 new split ADD duties at first. After that, 7422 and 7442 swapped for 9210 and 9449. 9836 did not go over as AM don't want anymore of BN's Volgrens so 9836 became spare and 9449 went over instead.

  Looks like feeder 242 can become a WAB service soon. Whereas feeder 241 gets more ADDs.

  
  I smell something for 243..

  I dun feel hapy for passengers taking service 242 with the replacement of DD to SD and is even KUB.

  thats because you stay around the st 72 belt

  241 is currently suffering. 242 can use WSD over ADD.

  still a DD is better over the WSD. Do rmb there are jam outside jln Boon Lay. Svc 241 route seems shorter to me especially the route from Joo Koon to JW St 91 and even the traffic light along JW St 63 had been optimized. Wa, 3mins from BNL- JK then 5 mins to the JW St 91. lol.

  I still remember there was one time a stomper complained of no new low floor buses to areas like JW Street 91 and 92, after which feeder 242 finally got 2 K230UBs from SLBP. And the amended feeder 242 which has perm K230UBs no longer goes to JW Street 91 and 92, it was replaced by new feeder 241 which is mainly ADD buses and do not have perm K230UBs so far. Rather feeder 242 gets 2 more K230UBs which is now >50% WAB fleet , whereas all the K230UBs on 243W had been taken out wef today.

  DD is better to pick up loads, but don't worry, at least you have 9121B. I've ever seen 2 DDs departing (aft 241 intro) on 242, one was rather full, another was just empty, BC waited and waited and no one board..

  i feel so too. now with the amendment of 242 to skip st 91 sector, the route is relatively similar to svcs 192 and 193.
