  Even if 43 is not half DD, I am puzzled as to why the supp 43M can have higher DD percentage than its parent service. I am sure there is demand elsewhere on 43 other than the north-east sector.

  Can remove the DDs from 119 and deploy to sv 43.

  Is 1436E the TQ01 for 961 on Saturdays? Someone put this slot as an empty slot but it was seen on 961 and went off at 1800+ hours.

  Talking about 961. On weekends i think 961 got add duty. Saw 1605J, 1435H,1585H doing full day on weekends. 338L is still TQ. 1436E also TQ.

  As I have said, SMRT had been lagging in laying up buses starting from this year...those rotting buses at WPDEP and the DAFs/O405s are just the best examples.

  The few B9/citaros are jumping around, acting as Spare buses as the current fleet went for DDU installation...

  It seems that 

  SMB 3100K - SMB 3103C -> 927 (Perm)?

  SMB 1570A , SMB 1573S - SMB 1575L and SMB 1577G -> 301 (Perm)?

  TIB 1238H - 188 (Perm)?

  obviously there is bigger demand along 43M route, that why it is introduced in the first place...  as for other part of the route for 43, there is also demand, but it is all because of the frequency....

  About 4 days left to the de-registration of SBS9613Z, SBS9615T - SBS9618K, SBS9620C. Only SBS9614X is left for the extension, unless they backfired again.

  TIB988H confirm retiring by the end of this year, god.

  Many of the Hispano MK2 have been confirmed retiring because they will be replaced by incoming MAN A95s and to help 180 become WAB friendly.

  The Yishun Feeders will also start to retire their bendy buses as soon as possible, but since MAN A24s are brand new, meaning that they will transfer them to replace Volgrens.

  Whoever keeps putting back the old 179-241-242 crossover list on sgwiki, please stop. That crossover list has been out of date for a long time. There's only 4 179 buses crossing over to 241A in AM Peak now, no more no less. Due to more buses being added to 241, 179 buses no longer do 241.

  TIB988H and Volgren Gs will receive 69 yrs lifespan extension

  With introduction of 43M, the load can be managed easily. Prefer 43M to be full fleet SD, while 43 to get those DDs instead. When 43M DD trails a 43, it goes empty all the way from NEX to Punggol. 43 instead has heavy loading in multiple parts of its route and SD cannot always tank the load.

  Two 179 DDs do sv 193 instead. The crossovers to 243W still exist right?

  Hm, not sure of any 179 buses that crossover to 193 or 243W. What time do these buses crossover? Will keep a lookout. Only know that 3113P from 243 often appear on 241 during PM Peak.

  All not upgraded to Euro 3/4 engine. This does not comply with the emission limits, therefore de-registering on 15 July 2016.

  In order to extend the bus lifespan, it must be:

  • Compliant with Euro III/IV bus engines
  • In proper and working condition
