They can take DD buses from 169, 700, 856, 964, 966..
Originally posted by carbikebus:Now LTA also doesnt want to supply them A24s so how to WAB their feeders when 858 also need bendy buses?First in everything can also first in stupidity too.Rail operation also so many problems yet wanna run bus business?Look how Temasek pampered them with golden spoon..At least SBST doing their jobs albeit theyre the majority.
If SMRT were to control majority of the bus services.. RIP to the frequencies..
DAF >> 925
Either AM, S1 or AM peak only. Had been seeing it on morning at around 6:30am+ departing CCK

169 856 964 are more suitable with bendy buses.. DD is disastrous..
856 with bendies is no go sia for me, peak hour pax jam the bendies until another bendy have to tank the rest of the load of the workers at Senoko hence the x-over from 851

Who is the stupid operator that promise bendy only for feeders and intratowns in the first place?DD is disastrous in what way?Bendy faster?Dont talk rubbish la bro..Already our infrastructure isnt bendy friendly anymore.If those DD prove disastrous why LTA doesnt want to buy more A24s for SMRT and why SMRT only ordered 40 units only?

Someone will claim DD upper deck is empty and they still think people will stand all the way behind inside bendy buses when the aisle is very narrow?169 bendy have a hard time finding parking lots during peak hours at AMK.

925S191 slot..
Random buses are usually deployed to those BSEP slots..

169 need to reduce a bit of bendies during peak hour, can see 5 bendies and 2 rigid at AMK during peak hour where they start split
SBST already shown the way how short feeders like 225 sucessfully use DDs,If not why LTA spend money to MAN and ADL to built three doors dual staircase DDs?

Oh ya thanks.. Totally forgot about this slot

Not really disastrous..
As in, if the DD buses were to be deployed to those services, it'll be better to have 2 alighting doors instead of the current 1.. Just like the GCM concept bus..
I'll take back my words from my earlier post..

Very soon they will get used to it,Look JIS during peak hours then you know..I take my final stand that bendy only suitable for feeders if they insists provided the Interchange must be slightly bigger and the depots too must be bendy friendly.

They shld practice this actually, The upper deck people will alight from the entrance and the exit and then the people who wanna board will have to wait at the entrance, but instead the whole upper deck only alight exit door, no wonder it can take freaking 5 mins just for 1 DD to clear that bus stop then cn cause jam and the back bus honking.

Or rather both doors for boarding and alighting..
For the time being just bear with it,Im pretty sure the problem can be solved once the three doors DDs start rolling.Next commuters ought to change their kiasu attitude also,Behind bus like got ghost,Like scared driver never wait for them to alight.Even if youre only 4-5 bus stops and the lower deck is full,Take the initiative to go upper deck la,Before 500m get ready to alight dont last minute then wanna alight.Kiasu commuters ought to refrain from standing near the exit doors too.

(BN 2 -> CG 47)Spotted on same slot for the past few days, should be replacing SBS3512X but not sure if 3512X went to 2
3512X is on Sv 2 in return, this one KIV first but it should be correct
Originally posted by lemon1974:i think i saw it on saturday , but it is adless.. it should be perm somewhere.... 58/21 does not really go to city area... btw, it was parking at sv76 parking lot last night in amdep... .
Hmm. Sv 175 also got 1 bus with the AAF ad (6048A), so basically it means so far it's been Sv 130, 111, 56 & then Sv 175 also with buses with the AAF ad.
Idk if you see those 4 svcs have anything in common though.. maybe the commonality between those svcs = the type of likely svcs 5070R is meant for
I suspect SMRT is trying to take out more O405Gs for their feeders and replace with 2 A22s.Yesterday 912 running with 11 A22s and 7 bendies only..
suspect
SG1705G - SG1709X >> BU 983
SMB3127J, SMB3128G, SMB3161J, SMB3162G >> KJ SP
Last bus suspected out of 983 TBC
TIB985R TIB997G
>> WLDEP SP
SMB8002C -> WL 913

11 A22,6 O405Gs and 1 A24 is enough to get WAB for 912.

Yeah along side 9 A22 and a few O405Gs.
