The only svc related to Sv 48 in any way (due to the x-over) is Sv 16, and Sv 16 has no e-tt changes planned lately as well. I think you get what I'm driving at.
16 still ok for ARBP coz its not too far from Bedok to ARBP via ECP/AYE.

Uh, I actually quoted Sv 16 because I'm trying to imply that the latest e-tt change for Sv 48 in May is for Sv 48 solely, and not because of a reprint needed for a change in any other related svc (this context, Sv 16) due to changes in x-over or such.

I thought SBS 3181S was ARBP 14 from BBDEP 166,but then change back to BBDEP 166,can anyone explain to me why it perm back to BBDEP 166?
It is not seen on AR 14 these days daily. Weekends on and off I see it but thats not considered perm on weekends. Buses tend to run around then. Also, 3181S does not have an AR marking on the dash which means it is not perm yet.
Though 3181S is not with BB 166 now, its better to stick to the former one first before considering where it goes.

Actually if anyone does think about, the demand at UEC is quite miserable if I might say. Yes, there is some crowd during Weekends because of the food centre and nearby supermarket. And yes, it's probably present also to service the private estate residents on Weekdays. So I'm not sure even if those svcs will stay there or get shortened to elsewhere someday.
And honestly, I've mostly seen empty buses leaving UEC on service usually at almost every time period possible. It's kinda like Sv 48 terminating at BNDEP? Like practically no one boards Sv 48 for the first stop out of BNDEP as well.

Crashed. Workshop. Scrapyard.
If you've seen the pics, the chassis damage is quite significant in my opinion. Beyond economical repair even though it probably still has another 15 or so years till expiry. If they could repair 7320G previously with part of the chassis torn off in between the two sets of doors back then with the accident 7320G had on Sv 2 years ago, it says alot why they couldn't repair this 8900B.

I prefer if they make a terminal at the Victoria School Site of the former Marine Parade terminal 10 yrs back instead of going all the way to UEC.

Thanks for the info on 8900B, really unfortunate for it to be scrapped after only a few years.
The demand in UEC is no doubt low but i would say it's to provide more travel options for students in Temasek Pri/Sec as well as ppl heading to Bedok Camp.

Do u have the pic for 8900B accident

haha when control of many services is shifted over from a relatively accessible depot like BNDEP, to a 'ulu' depot stuck at the end of an access road like CGBP, it adds on to the workload and troubles that BCs face, and BCs might be unhappy.

Should be a depot transfer. If 855 were to come over then the citaros should have followed, or jump around on other services. But seems to be the 4TQ buses are fixed so it should not stand a chance of getting switched over.

855 got 14 buses 9 WAB buses. 5 Non WAB buses. Highly suspect the 5 non WAB will come over. The sole OC and the demonstrator shld be staying with AM.

Actually WL got alot of Spare MAN to fleet add 855 if 855 needed a fleet add.

I would say that if they want to provide options for pax in those areas, there are services that could be extended to other areas instead of UEC. Means the services still serve these impt areas, just that they don't have a terminating point there? UEC as far as I see it now, is really under-utilised. If you go UEC on Weekdays after 7.30-8pm onwards, it's like a ghost town, a really eerie atmosphere with underlit lighting.

Actually I'm also wondering too how the BCs get to CGBP if the buses on the services they are driving are parked in CGBP. Is there specific Employee Buses to send the BCs there? Or they have to ride/drive their own private transport there?
