Nevertheless I think there is a need for medibuses... SG is one
of the few countries that still uses 12m SD for its trunk ops, even
though some clearly does not need them... Eg. 84, 882...
I dont buy the theory that one size can really fit all for bus
operations... Even for rail operations we need to tailor its trains
to each and every line...
Leave alone buses which comes in a whole more lot of
varieties...
Even in London and HK, there are different makes, lengths and
types for different routes...
And I feel that shorter buses could come in handy for these svcs
too... Easier for 42 to
manoeuvre around the narrow roads and tight turns in Kembangan, and
for 84 to u turn at Punggol Point...
Agreed to the max,If they want to follow London or Australia
style then opt for 10.5m midibuses like the MAN 14.250 or even the
10.7m ADL Enviro 200.Peak hours can just add 12m buses to join.
