They will definitely give a bulk of DDs to Sv 190... But SMRT does not have experience with DDs... Why add to the problems of 190... Better to try out on 963...

BusAnalayzer SG

Now with less stress of thinking to deploy DDs for Bt Batok svc,They can jolly well make 190 full fleet DDs..Who knows Loyang or Ulu Pandan for them?Lol

Anyway, SMRT never concentrated on 106. It did not give even one DD from SMRT side to 106 except for the 3 BSEP. Maybe they already knew the tender was not its cup of tea. Otherwise, why would a CBD going high loading service not get more DDs!?!

Gus.chong SG

The main problem is that SMRT have one year left to decide how they are going to allocate the buses with so few capacity in depots...if all the buses are bought over by LTA then I think they may have more decisions...

Lets see if they can improve their service standards after this...Might see 75,184 back to Kjdep again..

Good news! Another Yishun service will have double decker buses! Service 856 which will be deployed by double deckers starting by today! Check it out at SMRT facebook page

SMB3095S SG

It will deploy DDs on 856 on weekdays ONLY

carbikebus SG

Woodlands Centre Rd first time DDs ply?

AntiDennisLance SG

Anyone got any DD regoes for 856?

Any additional for 857 from the existing 4?

carbikebus SG

I might think some of the 856 DDs will do 857 during weekends

Welcome the decision, but surprised that 856 got DDs before 851/854/855. 856 is a very high loading service, so definitely DDs will help.

makes sense - won't have industrial sector high loading on weekends. Should go to 857/969.

TIB429E SG

856 will start next week, 18 May. [Updated]

I'm sure if the loading behaviour is good, deploying in weekends will be no issue.

Weekends(Sat) still have some loading for the industrial sector.

Speaks a lot about the quality of SMRT people, Sv983 plying from CCK to Bt Panjang.

Since its a BSEP service, it looks like its LTA decision instead.

u dun get it? look at the SMRT facebook post, it mention that 983 have been plying CCK - bukit panjang.... obviously, that administrator does not know/care about the bus route.. further, they can even post yesterday morning that DD will be deploy on S856 yesterday, and later edit to start next monday? cant even know when the DD will be deploying?
