My suggestion: To extend the PM peak period to 8.15pm instead.w.e.f 15 Dec
- There will be an additional bus added to service 804, 806 and 811.
- In order to align to the late PM peak period, operating hours for PPSS 811P will be shifted to a later timing (6.00pm - 8.00pm) upon its launch.Additional bus info, also wef 15 Dec:
- There will be 2 buses and additional trips added to service 969
- Additional trips will be added to 169
- 1 single deck bus will be converted to a double-deck for service 850E"
Suspected:
Added BSEP buses likely to be on:
Feeder 804: SMB3020H / SMB3013D
Feeder 806: Unknown
Intra-Town 811: SMB3056E
Additional trips on 169 / 969:
169: SMB3007Y (902 x 169)
969: Likely to be 850ES194 crossover
Upgrade fleet on 850E:
850ES194 to Enviro500, whereby the additional BSEP bus on Feeder 804 covers SMB3076Y slot.
I think all these are valid extensions and were needed. Good to see 850E also get another DD.

Hi mr SMB315C, that is why I always say to others that feedback to your constituency MP if you want to see bus routes enhanced. No point just to write many posts here. Cheers.
Mr Lee miss out 812 another freq problem svc,should have 2 bsep buses added.980 another culprit,should add 2 more split buses instead of throwing more buses to 966..
Fyi, tmr service 140 will be free.

Its good placing as 183 is right next door. Now ppl are going to get confused. should they wait for 41 or 183 and run between the two and jump queues when either bus arrives. Lol.
41 has Wrights...

I have to admit though this is the BEST round of PPSS.
811P was needed given smrt refuses to give more high capacity buses to this service that really needs it
812P also was needed given current fleet is not adequate. Again incompetency on part of smrt
903P not so sure.. but every bus both directions is full.. so okay to force some ppl like u do on 291P
265P is okay given demand is high and no high capacity buses
285P is the worst choice ever. This really irritates me. What the hell is LTA thinking given both 78/285 have great frequency, have DDs and are in direction opposite to their load. Normally sv 78 dds run empty from Clementi in PM peak. Now you add one more service. This is pure waste of resources.
these buggers are using their backside and plan and think based on my observations
Jialat,By the way ive sent my perusal to both Go Ahead and Veoila RATP and the response so far is great
