Bus Routes...Who Design them???
My uncle, an SMRT Corp worker told me that bus routes are designed by LTA.Then, they are given to Tibs or SBS. The buscompanies then amend it just a little...5-10%.
I don't know wheter I shud believe it

I know that but I am talking about majority of the routesOriginally posted by freakybuses:some are through feedbacks. -
If I'm not wrong, SBST and Tibs have departments that plan bus routes.Originally posted by cck_190:Bus Routes...Who Design them???

SBST/TIBS or maybe even LTA designed the routes.... the part where LTA comes in is that when they submit their proposal of a new route (whether thru feedback from public or from their own) to LTA, LTA must give the approval of it... otherwise... no new route. and its back to the drawing board again..Originally posted by cck_190:Bus Routes...Who Design them???

Its like asking LTA whether this route can use this expressway/highway/road anot? Its like asking permission for using LTA's territory

And that is the route managers department.All they need is just an approval from LTA.Originally posted by tranquilice:If I'm not wrong, SBST and Tibs have departments that plan bus routes. -
But I'm told that the routes are mainly designed by LTA.Then submitted to the various interchanges route group.The int route group can choose whether they want to accept or not.If they accept, they amend the route just a littleOriginally posted by tranquilice:If I'm not wrong, SBST and Tibs have departments that plan bus routes. -

Like something useless like that. Formed for nothing.If the rules made were to be really followed, we will have a very-very good bus networkOriginally posted by tranquilice:Extra? -
PTC is not necessary at all!Originally posted by cck_190:PTC is just an 'extra' thing in the picture -
dun tink so... bus route planning is just a small responsibility of one of the positions... since there are not too many bus routes to plan all the time. LTA is heavily involved in this process but they mostly approve bus service intro or amendment or withdrawl.Originally posted by tranquilice:If I'm not wrong, SBST and Tibs have departments that plan bus routes.
