Problem with 965 is the headway that's the problem. For 969, i know they like using SDs during weekends, esp on Sundays. If u are talking abt HC buses for 969, it should be full fleet during peak. If not at times during offpeak all the DDs is barely full. I guess they would stick to mix fleet for now

SMRT very slow on expressway nowadays. Last Friday decided to take 969 from Tpe stop instead of sv 39. The sv 39 was just 1 min in front of the 969. In the end, sv 969 reached Blk 790(my stop) 5 mins later.... In short, sv 969 caused me to arrive 10 mins later at sch!
ok lah i wont say all the time, but rather most of the time. I rmb when i used to travel on 969 often, speed was quite ok during peak, but slow during offpeak

Its up to LTA and not the operator anymore.You can't 100% blame SMRT for not deploying full fleet HC for those service.With current management in charge,There will be disastrous. ..
Since GAS is short of SDs and SMRT short of DDs,why don't GAS exchange 10 B9TL for 10 SG Citaros?
883 definitely got capacity upgrade, now operating with fleet of 7 buses

Today i manage to joyride,SD @ 0745am not so packed.But the DD behind got a few standees although upper deck doesn't seem that full.
There will be a bus from 143 to supplement 143M during peak hours everyday.
804 fleet today - overall capacity reduction but higher number of capacity buses (fewer rigids)
3 DDs, 1 BD, 2 SDs... observed a fleet of only 06 buses. Frequency has reduced to a bus every 10 minutes on average due to reduced loading. There were times when there was no bus for 15-16 mins and then there were 2 DDs at an interval of 2-3 minutes.

I spotted only 6 buses on 804 today AM/PM... I think there is a bendy that did crossover to 807A.
807A is done with a bendy bus (around 7-8 trips) and 1 SD and 1 DD from 807 crossover to 807A for 4 trips.
188 has a drop in HC buses... Yesterday at least 7 SDs from usual 4-5 SDs on this service.

It seems that 161 is downsizing its high capacity fleets again on Sun/PH...

Weekends downsize is normal cause not all buses is full..save fuel..but 168 cannot afford to have SD replace DD during weekdays..if just supplement or OS its fine
