Confession:

In my 'Restoring the balance between SDs and DDs' post above, some unnecessary DDs were kept on services like 119 just for the sake of balancing the number of SDs and DDs. Service 3 also had many upgrades and 2 SD fleet cuts for the same reason.

However, I think that the DDs on 82 would be useful. Full fleet SD on Sundays though, with all perm SDs operating on Sundays.

Also, GAG will not get any A22s, so some of the upgrades will be useful.

If LTA is me i would compensate SMRT..

WLDEP/WLBP:Scrap their O405Gs and compensate them with 25 more A24s,50 more E500s,50 more A95s and 60 Citaros with ZF.

KJDEP:Sold or scrap their OCs,Scrap their O405Gs and DAFs and compensate them with 10 more A24s,20 more E500s,20 more A95s and 50 Citaros with ZF.

AMDEP:Sold or scrap their OCs,Scrap their O405Gs and compensate them with 15 more A24s,10 more E500s,25 more A95s and convert their Citaros with SG plate.

Fleet proposal for sv 111

7 B9TLs, 4 SDs..

I want 2 SD->DD upgrade again for sv 111. The loading had fallen 3-4 years back but from last year onwards the loading has increased thanks to the huge crop of developments in Queenstwon, Dawson and off-Tanglin road from where 111 is the only direct service catering to Orchard road.

DDs are getting 80-90 pax on peak hour trips between Orchard MRT and Queenstown. Loading between Orchard and Suntec sharply drops.

SBS8002T SG

For me, I would prefer if 111 gets 1 more AP DD (for both weekdays and weekends) instead of a SD to DD conversion as it would help to boost the frequency of the route at the same time.

I feel that 111 serves as an alternative from Orchard to Queenstown/Commonwealth without the need to transfer between MRT lines, in addition to serving the housing areas along Tanglin and Queenstown.

Also, I noticed that buses can be packed from Orchard all the way to the Tanglin area during PM peak and PM off peak with the upper deck is well utilised, citaros can be packed to the door by the time the bus reaches the Trader Hotel (Hotel Jen Tanglin) bus stop.

My suggestions for fleet upgrade/downgrade:

78 and 98 - remove the SD

106 - frequency is OK, but prefer if more DDs do 106 during off-peak on a daily basis instead of A22s

145 - 6 SD convert to 4 DD (SD bunching is common and 2 SDs can have more than 35 pax each within 3 mins apart)

165 - 1 DD downgrade to SD

187 - convert 7 A22 to 4 bendies, 187 has way too many buses

198 - Full DD fleet, can cut 1 bus if all the SDs are converted to DDs

502 - add 1 bus for frequency boost

carbikebus SG

Beside the bus packages,LTA should also tender the rail lines in future.EAST/WEST,NORTH/SOUTH,NORTHEAST,CIRCLE,DOWNTOWN,THOMSON EAST COAST,CROSS ISLAND & JURONG REGION lines.
