SMRT BSEP has a huge role to play with DDs. SMRT services do not
need fleet add now. First they need to convert the SD BSEP adds to
DD BSEP like they did for SBS services 2, 45, 60, 168.
they do not need fleet add, but they need more higher capacity
buses..
so for Sv190, currently have 26 bendies plus 15 SD... so if LTA
switch 3 MAN A22 out and replace with 3 E500, will it help?? and if
SMRT is going to deploy their own DDs on Sv190 and at the same
time, transfer out all the bendies, it is call LPPL.....
what they need to do for sv190, is to replace all the SD with
DD, not replacing the Bendies with DD....
same go for Sv969.... so LTA will replace 3 of the BSEP MAN A22
with E500, and SMRT deployE500 to replace the bendies... it wont
help at all....
