  I don't think much of those will be going to BN/CG though. BN/CG still have a surplus of BSEP Citaros, unless if they actually decide to use 6347L 6408U 6413D that bunch to perm somewhere instead of running as SPs.

  Meaning this is additional BSEP E500?

  Seriously LTA should stop buying those A22s especially for SMRT.Should have convert to A95 or E500 order instead.

  no additional BSEP E500.. there are rumour that there is only 98 or 103 BSEP E500, but there is no official notice at all.... there are simply too many BSEP buses right now (for SBST/SMRT).

  It is insane how many buses they are bringing in... not needed for now... they can buy/register on need basis... too much surplus already... that services getting Citaros helter skelter... the interchanges are a chaos these days with buses. 

  i really don't know who is doing stupid planning at LTA... it seems like a bigger strategy... maybe soon they are going to tell... we brought in 1000 buses, got feeder frequency to less than 05 mins (most feeders today operating at <5 min frequency)... after making this claim... they are going to slam heavy duty on car owners to move to buses and mrt... this is the thing I am suspecting.

  otherwise this mass registration of Citaros just doesnt make sense.

  These should be for HGDEP 102 I believe!! 

  For straight 7-8 months no BSEP DDs registered... I suspect with Joo Koon opening in September, we may see the new batch of BSEP DDs registration.

  should be 102 MAN A22 plus 116 BSEP E500.

  SMRT bought 573 buses of which 218 are BSEP...

  332 of them are MAN A22. 230 SMRT A22 (exclude BSEP) have been registered, balance is 102 MAN A22. so should have 116 BSEP E500.

  the new batch of Wright DDs are still in production and most likely they are reserve for the Bulim Depot package.....

  3449 & 3450 are last 2 Batch 3 Wrights, fills up the missing slots to 570.

  3451 - 3453 are batch 4. Evident with large chassis numb jump.
  
  -------

  B1 Wright: 7500 - 7686 (with missing numbs) [150]

  B2A: 7700 - 7729 [30]
  B2B: 3000 - 3238, 3269 [240]
  B2 BSEP: 3300 - 3329 [30]
  Total B2: 300

  B3: 3240-3299 (Excl 3269) [446]
  B3 BSEP: 3330 - 3348 + 3349 & 3350 [119 + 2]
  Total B3: 568+2 = 570 [Although original press release in Jul 2012 stated 550]

  The additional buses problem also appears in citaro.

  B4: Coming Soon
  B4 BSEP: 3351 - 3353 [3]
  Total B4: 3/415
