last SG · 2016-10-30T00:17:30+00:00

And the moment when you realize that every single new SD introduced into the next decade is this same model...Idm! Not if the SD is a nice tri-door MAN and n...

If LTA decided to bulk purchase this bus,Then here are some improvements to take note

1:Windows no need so big,Standard size is enough..

2:Centre doors should move a bit front..

3:Rear platform shouldn't be too high and third door floor also no need until 3 steps.

4:If possible,Request MAN to custom 12.3m chassis.If Possible..

Lastly,Spread to all operators including the 12.8m A95ďďťďďťďďť

The windows are standard size(except the portion above the SMRT logo in offisde and nearside..is the livery that made the windows look big.

SBST & GA may still reject :-(

Unless they have their own three doors Citaro and B9TL..If big boss wanna go ahead with the plans,They have no say.

people in toa payoh already use to sbst KUBs that with two wheels chairs space with liimted sitting at the back. I think smrt also have bus that have two wheels chairs right?

But LTA should deploy this 3 doors at feeder bus services instead of city service.

SMRT got OCs..

carbikebus SG

Bulim & Loyang should include OCs and KUBs respectively..

I think for the citaro, the aisle is very narrow in front due to the facing seats instead of the vertical layout of the kub.

What makes it worse is that there is this grabpole on the right when boarding that juts out and makes the aisle even more narrow. They could remove it and install horizonal grabpole at the edge of the cargo rack on that side so that space can be widened abit.

Smrt batch 1 citaros don't have those poles if anyone noticed.

The positioning of the grabpoles makes a difference as well to walking space on the bus. Cheers

What if the wheelchair bay is position such that they enter and exit via the front doors? Could probably save space by adding single leaf doors as the 2nd and third tho.

Maybe can try implementing this way.

Another suggestions is to add back the seats at the rear standing area...it's so "awkward" standing there

SMB1368T SG

Tht would mean putting the wheelchair bay next to the front doors

Tht would mean putting the wheelchair bay next to the front doors

There are both advantages and disadvantages to it.. The good is ofc that it's also nearer for the BC..

Although if its to be at the front the PIW must wear seatbelt.. Coz the turning momentum is greater at the ends of the bus than the middle..

SMB1368T SG

Though the con is that people would crowd around there when it's not in use

carbikebus SG

No doors better leh,Give 2 doors and 3 doors also complain..

So,5999Z still continue trial or what?

As for the fate of sg5999, its fate will depend on LTA. SAME goes to sg4002 after trial at 190 and 901 ends as well.

Thought 5999Z trial has ended

carbikebus SG

Hopefully LTA give go-ahead to trial..They are the only operator with no MAN bus at all

A22 fan SG

Strongly agreed. GA needs some MAN buses. TT already got 75 of them at least. SBSt are getting more as sg5835m trial a major success

Or at least LTA supply 15 A24 for both svc 34/36đđđ

A22 fan SG

Either LTA buy another new 20 A24s in lush green colours (just like batch 2 E500s) or buy over the existing ones from SMRT to fufil this..
