Capacity Upgrade/Downgrade Reporting on Bus Services

last SG · 2014-06-02T11:57:05+00:00

254/255/257 loads can easily cross 100 pax.. Why no BSEP yet or even fleet add from SBST side... Totally ignore the JIS area.

Sv 50 got capacity upgrade. Citaro slot converted to DD (HGDEP)

BusAnalayzer SG

Did anyone notice Sv 154 lost one of its BSEP Citaro...???

now back to 33 perm buses with 18 DDs and 15 SDs.. The number of DDs have increased over the past months though.

BusAnalayzer SG

Capacity Upgrade - Sv 12

Not just did Sv 12 get BSEP fleet add (3391C) but also got one more SD slot converted to DD.

Earlier: 23 buses (16 DDs, 7 SDs)

Now: 24 buses (18 DDs, 6 SDs)

Many high loading sectors along route:

** Bedok south road to Tanah merah

** Tanah Merah to expo

** Expo to Tampines cc

** Pasir Ris dr 1 to Pair Ris interchange

** can have high loading along Mountbatten road but depends on other services calling

BusAnalayzer SG

Fleet add - Sv 23

Earlier: 15 buses (14 DDs, 1 Sd)

Now: 16 buses (15 DDs, 1 Sd)

** the one Sd has stuck onto this service for long time... Easily can make this service full fleet DD as many sectors warrant it.

BusAnalayzer SG

BSEP fleet add Sv 159

2nd BSEP add..

BusAnalayzer SG

Capacity downgrade on Sv 174

1 dd slot converted to Sd... Earlier there were 15 DDs... Now 14 DDs.

BusAnalayzer SG

Capacity downgrade on Sv 193

Dds are consistently being pulled out from Sv 193... I remember 2 years back.... With same fleet of 12 buses... You had 8 DDs and 4 SDs... Now, in early 2014, you had 6 DDs, 6 SDs...

But one more dd slot got converted to Sd... Wondering what the reasons are as I would expect like 192, Sv 193 also should have high peak loading in Tuas region..

SBS5010P SG

BSEP fleet add Sv 159

2nd BSEP add..

Does Sv 159 need so much of fleet add??

BusAnalayzer SG

Does Sv 159 need so much of fleet add??

I would say it does because it does not use DDs... Hence like Sv 27, 100, they have to keep adding buses.

Again stupid SBST/LTA logic to not ply DDs at least on its SWT where DDs can be used. If 159A could have used DDs, there was no need for this regular fleet add.

6417T was never perm 154. It is a spare BSEP bus along with SBS6416X to replace perm BSEP buses when they go for maintenance.

3759B & 3777Z are meant to replace the de-registered 9345Y & 9354X.

Sv193 page very outdated. 3766E/3769Y/3770S/3771P went in for 9386D/9395C/9410S/9466G. 3385X also on 193 for a long time now, may be BSEP add.

BusAnalayzer SG

6417T was never perm 154. It is a spare BSEP bus along with SBS6416X to replace perm BSEP buses when they go for maintenance.

It reflected as perm for 4-5 months... And also number of buses then was updated to 34-36 buses. It is okay according to me, if LTA feels the extra bus is not warranted and need to take it out to give it to another service.

BusAnalayzer SG

Sv193 page very outdated. 3766E/3769Y/3770S/3771P went in for 9386D/9395C/9410S/9466G. 3385X also on 193 for a long time now, may be BSEP add.

But from what is there, still seems capacity downgrade no? All yours are dd to dd replacements.

SBS8676Z SG

Yesterday spotted 3161A and another WEG (not sure if it is 3172T) running on 163 full day.

Fleet add on sv 185

For sv 185, SBST is the one who is constantly adding buses, upgrading SD slots to DD.

Same time last year, fleet was 13 buses = 6 DDs, 7 SDs. Now it is 15 buses = 10 DDs, 5 SDs.

SBS3004X SG

Service 84:
SBS6448D (BSEP add)

BusAnalayzer SG

BSEP add on sv 15

sv 15 gets a BSEP add with 19 buses in its fleet now (reference: 16 same time last year).. the others have been SBST add.

BusAnalayzer SG

Service 84:
SBS6448D (BSEP add)

Got a well deserved BSEP add. Especially used to pity residents along Punggol road HDBs who only had sv 84 coming every 20-25 minutes. Now hopefully will have a bus every 12-15 minutes.

With this change sv 115 is the only service with one bus.
