Go ahead 118 ? Why does operator expect smrt like to use a95 for Business / logistic park route ? Can deploy city route boh ? Don't include 147e - it travel so slow and the whole joeney last less then 1 hour.
Saw a few sbs a95 parked at Sedep without Sbs logo yet but it's rimcap has been removed and the wheel nut retainer is in place .

118 not just CBP loading. Throughout the loading is high Punggol - TPE - Tampines West - Simei and CBP.

SEDEP all man A95 rimcaps off

Chat with one of GAS trainer that A95 is only exclusive to svc 12,12e and 118.

Some people just confirm that sg5839C is indeed perm on sv168 - source from a friend who's friend , friend is a bus captain driving sv168 .
I hope still stays until the unit lifespan expire - 2017 to 2018 ( sv47) / 2018 to 2032 ( SV 168 )

A contacts of mine working for SBST & SMRT says they will take some of the A95 next week.
SBST:14 more units from SG5889H to SG5901E & SG5903A.
SMRT:SG5884X
Go-Ahead:Most probably another 10 units
Tower Transit:Depend on LTA.

Its a citybus and tuned for city usage,why can't it be deployed on logistic park service? Even Enviro500 can also used for feeder service.

Yes is a city bus but I have a friend who is working in STK as a man engineer and here's what he said to me - unlike other competitors city bus , MAN tuned their suspension based on their lions coach meaning regardless of whether it is a city bus or a tour bus the suspension setting and tuning will be towards highway comfort and not a start stop city situation. With this in mind wouldn't it be better if man buses ply highway routes over feeder / short route given that MAN tuned their suspension for highway comfort ?
