  Spotted SMB3010L heading to WLDEP today... Look out for more, especially starting from SMB3000R or SMB3001M and above regos...

  Woah...skip to 3000-series...this isn't even SMRT's tactic of registering buses.

  very funny leh... the usual 3 digit regos they register... and now become 4 digit regos for MAN buses under BSEP

• SBS9C

  13 Sep 12, 18:45

  Is there a need for SMRT and SBS to skip the current regos and register using a new series for BSEP?

  They could have just extend the rego like 388S then the new buses will be 388P or 3269Z then the nxt will be 3270T for example.

  Priority? These buses are under BSEP n use to enhance on the 11 smrt bus services mentionEd.  Some are kjdep.

  860 will use next batch of newly registered MAN bus.

  Don't suppose you quite got the sensitivity in BSEP.

  How do you explain to the public if you use their money and then run normal bus for the new services? At least for the near future.

  Visibility counts where practical.
