Seriously i dont know what is SMRT doing,Deploy bendies for a trunk svc that goes into CBD again?They should utilise those 6 A24s for their feeders instead.Well i really hope that Sungei Seletar will be won by other operators

SMRT shud be made to lose all of their territory. Maybe let them keep CCK/BPJ which they like to pamper so much.
YIS/SBW shud be taken away from them.

Didn't someone (or was it they themselves?) say during a long long long time ago, that the A24s were meant for feeders? I clearly remembered they mentioned something along that line in some press article when the A24s first came out..
And then when the A24s started appearing on Sv 854 etc trunk svcs as perm, that was a sign that they did a u-turn on their initial stand alr right..

Even though theyre desperate for DDs,They shouldnt deploy bendies for trunks that passby CBD..They should at least deploy those 6 A24s to 900,903,911,912 & 913 first.

SG-plated A95 buses are coming in their way very slowly.. So far only about 5 units (SG5740C - SG5744S) are ready..

They should have deployed those Double-Deckers (SMB5048R & SMB5080X,etc.) to 960 instead of exchanging out for the bendies..

True but seriously i dont think they will deploy those 6 bendies for 960,Maybe the Sg plate A95 will replace them and the bendies will be redeployed for their feeders instead

They shouldn't have included 960 into this Sunday's WAB wave too..

The A24 is to facilitate the WAB-isation of certain services, because they needed to make some feeder/intratown services as well as some short-haul trunks to be wheelchair-accessible.
Because SBST always had DD, the pax have lots of time to be accustomed to DD and utilise the upper-deck. SMRT didn't have the luxury of time.

Excuse me, please include the prefix for all buses. SBST has SG-plated buses now.
Service 43 finally have started mass redeployment for Go-Ahead, after the false alarms in February.
Watch out for the 102 perm DDs, and the SLBP BSEP buses.
SBS6548Z still on 116 today (though with the green livery removed). This bus is probably not be going over to GCM Loyang.
