Do you hv any idea they will put up the bus arrival electronic board in every bus stop in future? I like it very much as it is very helpful. -

From what I observe, they are trying to install at bus stops with higher usage like Orchard Road, bus stops near to MRTs.....

That 1 bus is S shift. He said he waited at 8pm. All the S Shift should have returned to depot.

why I said that is people waiting for buses in these bus stops will be able to gauge the frequency and not miss bus or alternatively if they see the electronic board that the bus they are taking will be arriving long then they can decide to take bus from same bus stop to change at another bus stop. -

if that is the case, i'm sure they get buses to downroute. Then the downroute bsues also join in the crowd

Last time even worse.
Drivers deliberately skip duties and so only one bus came every 30mins instead of 1 bus every 15mins.

I had bad experience waiting for buses on eve of public holidays and public holidays. Most buses take longer to arrive, don't know why. Can wait like 45 mins to 1 hr, when buses arrived they were already so full and passengers standing at the stairs.

Good idea in theory. Bad idea in practice. Not many people use the bus stops there and still put the equipment there? -

drivers deliberately take MC. SBS can do nothing about it as they cant find replacements on public holidays too. -
