If that is the case confirm lagi worse when contracting model kicks in

Not related to buses---
If u take mrt, lets say from Commonwealth u take EWL, then u end up at chinatown, NEL, Ewl is operated by smrt while nel is by sbst. So who get the profit? Or half?

The concept is: it doesn't matter... it will even out in the end. Assuming most ppl will use same pattern to get back.

There is a routing algorithm that would apportion that said fare accordingly. I would assume that this is information enough and information more than the adjacent post above.
If you wish to know more, you may wish to join the industry.

What happens to the DDs on sv 513E after it does its AM and PM trip? Are there any crossovers for these?
For ex: E500s that do 850E crossover to 969. SDs on CT18 crossover to sv 228. Buses on 196e do a full route of 196 before doing 196e.
Is there any crossover for 3323A and 3324Y? Or do these only do 1 full trip daily?

SMRT had totally now deployed 3 DDs on sv 176 and they are doing just fine along Henderson Road. Does anyone know what is sBST waiting for? Why does sv 145 still have NO DDs?
Isn't it strange?

Not enough spare Wrights under BRAM is the high likely reason. Unless BN transfer their spares over?

ADD = Aircon double decker.
ADL is then the Enviro.

It was a term used earlier when air-con DDs were introduced and you still had many non-aircon 2 axle still around. I don't see now why anyone needs to use ADD... ADD=DD now.

Maybe to differentiate DD cup bra?

What is user 9631X?

We might know that theyre plans for new Mandai,Changi and Woodlands integrated depots..
If those depot is completed Changi Bus park and even Bedok North Depot might be torn,Mandai a bit confusing cause from the site,its slightly more nearer to AMK/SBW and YIS compared going to CCK or BPJ.

Yes but CCK / BPJ also not far. Clear roads, no traffic along Mandai road, can get into BKE or Woodlands road.. and there you are either in CCK or BPJ.

If there is a new Yio Chu Kang depot its better for SBST to take over Sembawang,Yishun beside Yio Chu Kang Ter,AMK Int and Bishan too.
SMRT Bulim handle Jurong East,Bt Batok,Tengah and Clementi.
SMRT Mandai & Woodlands handle CCK,BPJ,Woodlands and Woodlands North respectively
There is a need for depots along Commonwealth,Woodleigh and Sengkang also.
New operator can handle Buona Vista,Kent Ridge,Bt Merah,Harbourfront,Woodleigh & Serangoon from new Cwealth and Woodleigh depot respectively.New operator also can take Bedok North for Bedok,Eunos,Sims Pl and Lor 1 too.
Changi Depot can be awarded to SMRT for Tampines,Changi Business Park and Upp East Coast Ter.
The rest including Loyang should be controlled by SBST alongside Downtown and Thomson lines.
