Last time wen i went there,i used to see a lot of TRG buses doing training at those lots....There used to b a lot of cones placed infront of the lots.Tink those cones were also meant for the training purposes....
Last month wen i went there to catch 280J,i saw the cones still there.And some of the lots look really abandoned wit alot of tall grass and huge amount of sand right in the middle of the lots.... -
would BN replace the perm stickers on its buses if they are redeployed?
-
156's terrible frequency hardly justify for DDs... afternoons and night time can hit 20mins..
AM Peak, theres 156A to supplement..
as for 163, theres the LRT for Fernvale residents although still serves some residents. at other times, a favourite service to get to Thomson.. but despite its terrible 15-20min frequencies, the bus is never filled to the brim -

since there are volvo mk2 (last time), mk3 & mk4 in SBST fleet,
how is volvo mk1 bus looks like ?
-
There is no Volvo Mk1, the earliest Volvo bus model operated during Singapore Bus Service (1978) Ltd time was the Volvo B57. Understand that some were sold to Ireland as school bus.

U mean those Scania K230UB? -
why dont smrt consider buying dd buses. cos for me, i tink dd buses can take more passengers and there is more seating. it also take the same space as a singer deck bus instead of a articulated.

smrt depots arent dd friendly. this has been mentioned like a broken record.

dd stands for double decker. Citaro and K230 are single deckers.

LTA has already ban the purchase limited the number of new bendy bus purchases in Singapore. So in future, no more new less bendy buses. With bus interchanges going smaller in future, space constraints will be a major problem. Bendy buses only escalates the problem. LTA is going towards their so called efficiency for shorter bus trips. Hopefully SBST can still retain its strong fleet of 1100 double deckers in future, else even double deckers might be extinct in future.

No point editing and crossing out my statements as I had already heard sources from people working in the automobile industry here that LTA has already banned bendy buses in Singapore. It's all up to individual to believe it or not. -

I was looking at my 2004 MM Bus guide my mum bought me last time, and I saw this particular 189A, serving Bukit Batok and West Coast Ferry. Just to ask, serious?

Yes. It was the old SBS 189 route. TIBS decided to shorten the route to Kent Ridge Terminal and renamed the original 189 route as 189A. Don't really understand why bus is not allowed to go inside the ferry terminal currently.
