8005U parked in Yishun Int for idk which svc. I think 804 or 806 bah.
Those 4 MAN Bendies in AMDEP are always stuck at Yishun since they came out. Except for the day which I saw one of them do Sv 969, I think the other svcs they've done are like..804 and 806?
Actually its a great idea to deploy those A24s on the feeders,I was hoping the 4 A24s do rotating on svc 800,804,806 & 812..By the way i heard AMDEP taking back 811.A sign of 851 & 855 getting dual control for the DDs?

AMDEP to take 811 back? Where you get the information from? By the way, it will be good so they can deploy MAN A24s on 811 since 811 is WAB and they need bendy buses. If AMDEP were to take 811 back because of deploying MAN A24s on that service, this means that AMDEP will take more MAN A24s.
By the way, it might be a sign that services under full control AMDEP like 851 and 855 will be getting Enviros by giving its duties to WPDEP.

WPDEP can also take MAN A24s as well if they want for 811...

If 12 and 6 duties of 851 and 855 given to Wldep then 811 suits Amdep better cause other feeders and Intratown all belong to Amdep
-
To be honest i would rather let Wldep to take over Yishun svc incl the feeders and Intratowns and Amdep as a sub depot for Wldep until Sungei Seletar depot is ready

8002c - 969

At the end of the day, all this mess going on has to do with AMDEP's roof not being able to take the Enviros right? Sigh.
Any changes in sight for AMDEP?
-
What thing wanna change if the depot is too small to be called a depot?Rows of bus plus buses make it more worse

It seem like those bus plus buses are not parking at AMDEP anymore? the usual place where they parked are alway fill with bendies instead..
-
Usually at night there are 2-3 busplus minibuses..
-
why don't park the DD buses in the temp interchange?

You mean for Wldep?If for Amdep sure cannot bro cause they need to refuel and bus wash first at Amdep before ONP,even the pump island roof also not 4.5m high
-
Unless they specially have fuel truck and manual bus wash crews stationed at Yishun at night just for e DDs

the problem with smrt and lta is that if smrt have planned properly for this AMK depot it should be not a problem having a DD bus top up there in the depot just remove roof and rebuild it to a higher roof should have no problem. also the DD bus after top up can park at yishun temp interchange for next day service. SMRT is not prepare for DD bus at all. it have been force by LTA to buy them as they cannot have too many bendy buses on the road or else public will complain. i think it stupid to give way for car owner complain just to remove bendy bus from city area. why must alway give in to the rich guys? who own the car.

Hmm I think it's because TIBs built AMDEP w/o the intention of purchasing DD yet?

AMDEP was built when TIBS just started with just the few bus routes. The bendies only came in the late 90s. TIBS also do not have the means to get a bigger depot until much later.

Artics started service in early '96. WLDEP was commissioned in mid '98 and was in full swing by the time SBS got the NEL contract.

... ah yeah
only 160 (now 980) and 167. TIBS had to borrow bus from SBS, where some were SBS-plated but in TIBS livery.
