  cus see the queue on 240 at Boon Lay Int on peak hours, its bad and every one need squeeze on single deck buses.

  Feedback to SBST....

  i doubt SBST will approve because there are some roads in Taman Jurong along 240 route which is too hard for VO3x to manoeuver in and out. so might be they want to deploy LO3x/VO3x, but the road constraint is reason that they cant able to do so.

  I believe Kang Chin Rd has problems

  maybe if 10.6m ADDs are in SBS's fleet

  VO3x=/=VO2x. VO3x has 2 rear axles while VO2x has only 1 rear axle.

  so i guess VO2x =/= DD buses?

  the thread name is Does Service 240 needs DD buses during peak hours?

  not Does Service 240 needs VO3x during peak hours?

  the right turn from yuan ching to kang ching or the right turn from corporation dr to kang ching.

  honestly if 28 can turn right at st 34 to st 32 with ease and with leylands, i dun see a problem with 240.
