I remember reading somewhere that the ADL 3 door DD prototype is not feasible because the ADL chassis has the engine mount on the rear left... which would clash with the location of the 2nd exit. They do not have chassis with the engine mount on the rear right so as to leave space for the 2nd exit.
Unless you wanna get off the bus on the right side in order to say hello to the oncoming traffic.
The ADL 3 door prototype as of now is still engineless.
The London Double-Decker bus is a good example.

Originally posted by gekpohboy:Personally, I feel that the second staircase and third door design of the MAN double-decker concept bus is messy. They should have chosen the other design, where the second staircase and third door are at the back of the bus.
Try telling that to the bus lobbyists. Ditto for the 3-door SD.

I got strong feeling they got it
You know, Singapore is fortunate. Because our economy is prosperous, and our government is clean, we can afford to do all these things. 😊

I have a feeling this three-door bus is actually a consolation prize to Tower Transit and SMRT. Finally, a local bus company that we can actually trust.

Not good news at all to our bus fares if STK is the only supplier. CNA is quoting a premium of 15% per unit.
And Scania didn't even take parrt in concept bus tender.
