I have seen DDs appearing on Sv 136 during off peak also. Same goes for Sv 93.

Ok to rest the topic - yes both 93/136 don't need perm DDs, just like 113/119 does not need

Sv 275 @ 11:30 am on Sat

Bukit Merah Interchange -- 14

Jalan Bukit Merah -- 19

Lower Delta road -- 16, 14

Bukit Purmei Ave -- 19 (14 alight, 19 board)

Lower Delta rd -- 23, 24

Jalan Bukit Merah -- 18

** if 131 goes before 275, I am sure the bus will have not more than 5 pax.

** why not just introduce 131B for am peak 3/4 trips rather than having a dedicated service?

LOL, is it he not sure whether you know why crossover DDs and full day DDs are different? Maybe a few more split DDs can be added or swapped with the SDs on 119, if that helps...

It is not 123, but 131.

SBS7557R SG

It is not 123, but 131.

123 loops at Bt Purmei Ave from Bt Merah Int as well, but takes the longer route via Queensway, Holland Rd, Napier Rd, Tanglin Rd, Orchard Rd, Clemenceau Ave, Havelock Rd, Zion/Outram Rd, Tiong Bahru Rd & Lower Delta Rd.

The main culprit where DDs should seriously be transferred to another service is 119.

taken it in the peak of peak timings to check.

am peak: reached 65-68 pax at few stops along Rivervale area

pm peak: 50-55 pax loading around Punggolmroad before Rivervale area and then drop to 25-30 pax within Sengkang and Punggol.

Use these DDs for a new service 27M that loops at Tampines Ave 5.

Remove 27A once 27M is introduced.

The two DDs plus all of HGDEP's spare WEGs.

Why bother so much about 2 dd trips in the whole freaking day. Let them stay. SBST has enough DDs if other service needs too.

even today Sunday I still saw 2 DDs on 119 leh .

sbst191 SG

even today Sunday I still saw 2 DDs on 119 leh .

It's funny how 161 gets most of its DDs sleeping in the depot on Sundays and even Public Holidays when it needs it more than 119.

I saw one. Not sure about the other one.

Few DDs. Saw 3 DDs but only 1 DD.

SBS5010P SG

There was 1 occasion when i saw 3 DDs on 119.

The extra DD was a B9TL CDGE cameo from Sv 80

BusAnalayzer SG

Yes I of course know that.

Yes... This would be optimal solution to manage loading for Sv 27 and has been posted many times here before also told to SBST but nothing done. Maybe need to tell LTA now.

Coz of BSEP... See no other reason.

SBS7557R SG

Hi mr SBS7557R, good effort. However, care to explain the conclusion of this audit? Worth it? Average service? Need improvement of frequency? Or enhancement of route? Thanks.

Will put all the stats into Excel later today for a clearer view.

Overall the load stats are the highest between Kovan MRT & Lor Ah Soo during evening peak. The peak load of 48 pax is still manageable by an SD in comparison to bus svs w/ higher demands. But then again, there are some discrepancies in stats which cannot be accounted for unfortunately.

BusAnalayzer SG

Will put all the stats into Excel later today for a clearer view.

Can you please post? Will be good to see...

The minor discrepancies are not important as they are not decision maker in loading right.. normally error is 2-3 pax which is okay.

Sv 27 @ 17.15 from HG interchange (earlier bus left int @ 17.08)

HG interchange -- 12

Hg ave 10 -- 23

Hg ave 6 -- 26, 23

Sengkang Central -- 30 (BGk MRT)

Sengkang east ave -- 31

Compassalve rd -- 32, 29, 29, 27

Compassalve st -- 30

Punggol rd -- 43

Tampines ave 10 -- 50, 57, 70 (2-3 pax could not board), 70 (did not stop - 3-4 pax on stop)

Tampines ave 9 -- 71 (-3, 4, 3-4 pax could not board), 68 (-8, 5)

Tampines ave 7 -- 59 (-14, 5)

Tampines ave 4 -- 48 (Tam MRT), 40 (-11, 3)

Tampines ave 5 -- 37 (-7, 4)... I alighted here.

** there is dd worthy loading even in opposite direction of peak especially in Tampines town. Most pax alight on stops along reg library, MRT and century square, again validating that DDs on 27A/27M would make complete sense.

** citaro really cannot fit more than 70 pax... Could already see how people were packed... Good thing was not for long time.. But people in opposite direction can really pity them

BusAnalayzer SG

After riding on 27, I switched to 168 at ave 5 to Bedok MRT...

Ave 5 -- 51

Safra -- 53

Bedok Reservoir rd -- 54, 53

Bedok north ave 3 -- 55 (-6, 8), 53 (-8, 6), 54 (-7, 8)

Bedok north st 1 -- 51 (-7, 4)
