its situate near berth 3. near the safety barrier.
should make 61 WAB not 189. quick trasnfer bus fleets.. =XD
because 61 go chinatown and 189 dunt.. and 61 has more PIW accessabble bus stops (rats! i cant really argue this because 185, 147, 51 are WAB'd) whereas many sectors of 61 dun have WAB services run..hahaha)
Yeah i agree with ZYX if 61 is going to get I think they will get it from AMDEP where there is 851,171 they can share.
have you find out that smrt ad portray a wheelchair bound person board a OC. Damm fake, smrt still dun have any wab service
A New Boarding System For Wheelchair Passenger Is Being Test Out At Bukit Batok Int. Unable To Take Picture Of The New System Due To Security Reason. Its Seem That The Passenger Need to Call The Control Office By A Intercom System And Tell Which Service They Want To Board, Then Cntrl Office Will Flash The Service Num On A screen Near The Boarding Area For The Service To Stop. From My Observation it Look Like that...
Yishun Int has a sign asking wheelchair bound passengers to proceed to Berth 4 for boarding.
Yea the sign is near Berth 20s (Service 39/85) area.
And from this stomper's post, apparently the services at Yishun to be WAB are 811, 851,171. Obviously.
agree with 61 , chinatown , lavender , kallang bahru , macpherson , eunos alot of elderly
This could be the reason that service 811 koped SMB30Z away from 854's fleet recently in exchange for TIB436J
.
That means only services 67 and 854 (think 188 also) which are the non WAB routes to have perm OC500LEs. Could be a potential when the 2nd batch of OCs comes in.
Heard from Ben that CCK also had a WAB boarding berth too, at Berth B5.

Encourage people to take SBST service along those areas lol
.
Anyway hardly got any OC500LEs on service 61 under AMDEP nowdays, and also due to the fact that service 61 came under partial WLDEP which had no OC intakes.
Woo. A lousy 436J was swapped for a lousier 30Z. Poor S shift uncle...

SMB30Z lousy meh? It certainly has no life running on S-shift 811 around Yishun instead of running full day on 854 along Yishun to Bedok passing by Hougang, Ubi and Eunos areas
.
I would say that the 2 perm drivers of SMB30Z had been downgraded to drive that dreadful TIB436J from now on...

Lols... For my case I have heard lots of explainations why s189 gets the OCs...
Except for being 'explained' in the past as the 'route-king' of Bukit Batok (I think this is something to do with passenger-per-kilometer and not passenger amount), the load and actual passenger-in-wheelchair does exist for the need of OCs. Presently service 61 is not under Kranji, or I guess some OCs would be on the service by now. This is totally up to the company operations and not for us to decide.
Looking at the load that s189 frequently gets in the morning would quite justify why operations put OCs on the service. I am also amazed at how the area along the route developed over the years, especially the lots near BBDEP, the factory loads just reach the point of optimized utilization. Using high-capacity buses is just the right choice to do the job.

Woo you sound very bitter in your post. Jealous that S854 can't go WAB? Too bad lor. ![]()
Let's just say that I took 30Z full trip once and had to withstand the whining gearbox sound for the entire journey. Not forgetting it had the sharpest and loudest whining sound for a full 4 weeks.
Oh yeah, S811 is certainly more exciting to ride on than S854 (boring route, from Yishun, 4 left turns and you reach Bedok) during the peaks when the loading gets fantastically high...

Hmm, I find it nothing wrong with TIB436J, Maybe because 854 is not the time yet. Just be patient will do
Yishun has taken off the covering for the WAB signages since this morning.
Usage panel at PIW holding area beside Pax Svc Ctr indicates 171, 811 & 851 as WAB services.
Boarding will be done at Berth 4 which currently has no services utilising it.
