last SG · 2016-02-09T10:18:07+00:00

If you're here to encourage people to take the MRT above the public bus, I feel that you have come to the wrong forum. SGTrains was created for a reason.So i...

Sv150 is an offspring of sv15 when sv15 went into marine crescent/terr between 1995 to 1998.

After that it was withdrawn when sv15 skipped that section after telok kurau rd. the next bus stop is tao nan school.

Just guessed it right that one day marine terr will have two services in the opposite direction where sv76 is now doing,

Sv134 should be using DDs, maybe even the buses from sv76 if sbst is willing to.

Sv150 highly likely to use Sds, given it being parallel to sv15 route.

Sv76 should have just merged with sv150 route instead, then again DDs wont be able to clear the telok kurau stretch..

Else where LTA wanna deployed those Wrights?No choice huntum only..

Plenty of services that need more DDs than services like 119.

TIB868X SG

LTA BSEP is really 'amazing', Service 49 was counted as 3 BSEP services.

amazing at massaging figures, as well as artificially inflating BSEP route count with seemingly obscure routes

Acx1688 SG

Telok Kurau stretch is abke to use dds, wide enough

Hi mr SBS3004X, service 49 is counted 2 times, not 3. Your facts are wrong. First is introduction of service which is counted as BSEP. The so called addition of 3 bus stops was not counted as BSEP. The last time of extending to jurong east interchange is counted as BSEP. Hope this clarifies. Cheers. Thanks.

Ask pax of sv76 to transfer to 43/134. But if u have to wait 10-15 mins for a 76, the last thing u need is to wait another 10-15 min for a 134/43

Dun mind u can tell which SV need more DDs? I think SBST services are mostly doing ok right now. It is SMRT service which are short of DD. Think LTA can transfer a few smrt service to sbst.

to list a few:

103, 136, 138, 166 (requires full DD)

Route 13 in no danger from 150 yeah?

169 for one. Can go 1-for-1 with 103. Another would be 176.

169 swap with 117 better

BusAnalayzer SG

to list a few:

103, 136, 138, 166 (requires full DD)

103 - agree. should have 6 DDs, 10 SDs.

136 - really? even the SDs find it hard to get full except for few timings. Will be another 119 case.

138 - okay but got massive SD add

166 - do you know how many DD->SD downgrades this service got? Doesn't have such high demand.

BusAnalayzer SG

Telok Kurau stretch is abke to use dds, wide enough

The Parkway East Hospital side doesn't. Hence, 15 hasn't got DDs. That is the pain point.

Would have been good if 150 would have done Marine Parade loop, and 15 go direct to Marine Parade via Still road and get DDs.

BusAnalayzer SG

150 is just ridiculous. I give up on LTA. There seem to be narrow interest groups they want to serve in the Marine Parade/East Coast area. LTA doesn't seem to realise there are areas with extremely poor connections (Kembangan, Siglap, Chai Chee, Joo Chiat) and it would be greatly appreaciated if they did something for these areas.

Agree. 150 is ridiculous.

BusAnalayzer SG

Agree. Whoever is praising 47 for its TNM-MP connection (and describing Tanah Merah as a golden transfer hub) probably forgot there's 48.

Coming to think about it, the number "48" did not appear in the discussions here at all when 47 was introduced.

47 is way better than 150. At least it has uniqueness to connect Bedok South road to Marine Parade & CBP.

150 really wtf???

Not saying 47 is excellent either - just better than 150. Marine Parade just has way too many services with so many now running empty.

SBS2652G SG

103 - agree. should have 6 DDs, 10 SDs.

136 - really? even the SDs find it hard to get full except for few timings. Will be another 119 case.

138 - okay but got massive SD add

166 - do you know how many DD->SD downgrades this service got? Doesn't have such high demand.

136 - peak hour packed with students at Kovan

166 - peak hour packed with students at amk, back to back SDs on the slots

SBS2652G SG

To be honest, it would be better to merge 15 with 134 as 150 already covers service 15 route

SBS2652G SG

103 - agree. should have 6 DDs, 10 SDs.

136 - really? even the SDs find it hard to get full except for few timings. Will be another 119 case.

138 - okay but got massive SD add

166 - do you know how many DD->SD downgrades this service got? Doesn't have such high demand.

strangely, 103 had 5 DDs yesterday as reported

dupdup77 SG

All, let's anticipate the towns which will have new services under BSEP in Q2 2016. Q1 2016 is almost over. Cheers. Thanks.

There are weird sightings of training buses in SBS Transit livery in Jurong West. From my understanding, Seletar also has weird sightings of training buses in SBS Transit livery. These could be an indication of either a new bus service, or route amendment, coming soon.
