LTA purchase 15 Lush Green Enviro500

last SG · 2017-02-16T14:36:59+00:00

Why E500 again when their performance is not good? :( E500s are the noisiest DDs after the CDGEs IMO.

I hope the tri-door will be given to GAS, so that the easties can have a taste of new products. SBST confirm won't deploy to east one so dont bother..

Maybe can deploy on svc 2 or 12, which are the two routes that span across the east, so more can take..

Forget it la bro,GAS also same like SBST.Theyre not TTS or SMRT which dare to be different.Wait for 2021 when either TTS or SMRT wins Loyang then can talk.Right now we just wait for SG5999Z trial to ended with TTS and see which operators does LTA favour to choose.

SMB128B SG

I dont think LTA will let GAS get away this time. Like it or not GAS is taking it. I'm not losing hope in LTA. As far as they can be imbeciles I dont think they will stoop to that level. Anyway if GAS doesn't take the ADL the first chance they got they will be booted out.

Are u talking about the three door ADL or the A95L?Unless you work for LTA

carbikebus SG

Later they will reply that Loyang package doesn't have any A95 or E500

ADL la abuden... A95 alr went to TT

That three door ADL?No engine somemore.A95L trial ended this mid September

A22 fan SG

I personally think GA should take MAN A22 since they are shortage of SDs as they had more than enough DDs. SDs are easier to deploy as they can be used on most services including services with full DD fleet

carbikebus SG

I'll be more than happy if LTA give them three door A22 and A95L in future and transfer some of their B9TL to other operators like SBST.Too boring and dull driving the same two models leh

carbikebus SG

Or transfer 20 SG B9TL to SMRT for 10 SG A22 and 10 SG A95,Lol

SMB128B SG

Yea ifkr, since the bus fleet also rojak alr might as well rojak it more..

For maintaining 3 brand of bus models I don't think its rojak.

SBST:Volvo,Scania,Mercedes,Dennis

SMRT:MAN,ADL,Mercedes,Volvo

TTS:MAN,ADL,Mercedes,Volvo

GAS:Mercedes & Volvo

carbikebus SG

TTS should in fact take 40 A95 instead of the ADL.

No I mean... Since SMRT also clusterfuck until this extent, why not do the same for other operators too...

Understand bro.Well SMRT case is not so jialat.Redeployment lor.

Ang Mo Kio and Kranji:MAN A22/A24/A95,ADL E500,MB OC500LE.

Woodlands:MAN A22/A24/A95,Volvo B9TL & MB Citaro(SMB).

The batch 3 A95s all for smrt i guess? I felt this way too. Seems that its out of reach for other 3 operators as merz O405G are retiring and they need more DDs above the rest. Including the all batch 2 E500s as a replacement for the bendies.

carbikebus SG

Obviously for SMRT unless LTA prove us wrong.

A22 fan SG

I hope so bro. But i still think these 15 batch 2 e500 will still go to SMRT as they are experienced in maintaining this model and they are more keen to maintain all models of DDs available. As for TT they should have enough DDs as some of their B9TLs had gone to storage.

carbikebus SG

TTS for now it's adequate for them unless they got a new svc which requires DD.

To be honest,With SMRT losing those Yishun feeders,851,(852) & 860,They did not need that much DD either.Even SBST taking B9TL and Citaro and not their A22,A95 or E500.

LTA just supply them another 20 B9TL(TTS or GAS),Take 100 B3 A95 and 15 new E500 is more than enough.Let the balance 22 B3 A95 goes to TTS or GAS.

A22 fan SG

Agreed..by then when SBST took over these mentioned services there will be excess DDs too. As for TT n GAS they can hav these 2 mentioned models provided they need further DD fleet additions in future. Ideal.
