Not exactly a route but more of a SWT suggestion:

SWT 186A: Havelock Road (Opp Holiday Inn Atrium) to Shenton Way Terminal, (0750hrs-0820hrs, 6 trips at 6 mins intervals, 4 DDs, the fifth and sixth trips are done by the first and second bus respectively)

Travel Time: Approximately 15-20mins

SWT 186A is to cater to the high demand from the Havelock area during the AM peak, where the double deckers are best utilized on 186, the 4 DDs will perform 1 St Michael bound trip before performing on SWT 186A.

Not exactly a route but more of a SWT suggestion:

Travel Time: Approximately 15-20mins

Good suggestion(I had recommended it 2 years back). Just the River Place Condo bus stop at Havelock road gets 40-50 pax per bus during this time.

I think frequency of 06 mins is too high considering that 186 will continue to operate during this time. I rather extend operating hours from 0745am to 0845am as there is considerable demand for Shenton Way until this time.

Good suggestion(I had recommended it 2 years back). Just the River Place Condo bus stop at Havelock road gets 40-50 pax per bus during this time.

Thanks for your feedback, based on your suggestions, I've ammended my SWT 186A suggestion timing and frequency as follows:

SWT 186A (3 DDs), operating at 10 mins frequency between 0745hrs to 0845hrs

My original idea was to deploy all the SDs and the remaining 2 DDs to do the full route while 4 DDs will cater to the high demand along Havelock Road during the AM peak hours instead of doing a full St Michael to Shenton Way trip to better manage the resources as I felt that the DDs are best utilized at the Havelock area on 186.

Thanks for your feedback, based on your suggestions, I've ammended my SWT 186A suggestion timing and frequency as follows:

SWT 186A (3 DDs), operating at 10 mins frequency between 0745hrs to 0845hrs

if you have DDs plying every 08 mins from Ganges Ave to Shenton Way, you can deploy 4 DDs... and not have any DD on sv 186 during AM. The St-Michael - Havelock is strictly SD loading hovering around 30-50 pax only. It is only at Ganges and Havelock that 186 DDs get packed. Opp direction loading is even more poor with ranging 20-35 pax on most trips.

SBS8002T SG

Based on your observations as 186 only gets DD loading during weekdays AM peak and from the SBST timetable (5 DDs operate on the NWAB slots), another alternative is to have 4 DDs crossover from 70 or 133 to do one St Michael to Shenton Way trip or operate on SWT 186A during 7:50am to 8:50am.

At the same time, 186 can downgrade 4 DD slots to SD slots. Based from my observations for evening hours, 186 doesn't seem to have DD loading most of the time as there is 51 and 970 that plies between Chinatown (51)/Shenton Way (970) and Queenstown.

In addition, if there is a 51 ahead of 186, people may board 51 instead of 186 if they are alighting at Queenstown MRT or the stops before the MRT station

AM loading on sv 186 is def > than PM loading. BUT bet 615 and 7pm buses departing Sheton Way get between 60-80 Pax. Loading drops sharply after Havelock road. I think 70/133 crossover in AM is difficult. The 186A proposal is better.

Since there were quite a lot of discussions on this...
