Loyang Depot

24 has split buses starting at CGA, buses have to travel from AMDEP all the way to CGA. 13 is really one troublesome svc when it comes to buses starting thei...

They will need to progressively shift some. I think HGDEP will be closer than LYDEP.

But definitely they will have to move some services like 86/136 and at least make them dual depot... considering they will need space for more Punggol/Sengkang services in future (given the massive construction happening in both Sengkang West town and Punggol west/waterway town)

AMDEP to Punggol/.Sengkang is really near though, shouldnt take more than 30 mins as the interchange is near TPE. I dont think they will dual depot these 2 buses.

If 141 can get dual depot, I think 86/136 can def get. This will only be in emergency case where they need space at HGDEP. IF not, no change required.

By right 141 n 50 dont need dual depot in the first place seriously.

Quite far. Around 7-8km. It is nearer to HGDEP and AMDEP.

86,136 will stay at AMDEP and will never change. 3 and 34 will stay at their respective depots

PS, I always though 86/136 is dual-depot. Haha.

If you ask me, some NE services to areas like HBF/Shenton Way can be solo Hougang depot, since they can use KPE/MCE to go to the terminal (like how some Braddell depot buses use Bartley Viaduct to go to Tamp/Pasir Ris Int quickly)

86 136 have never been dual depot since idk when, HBF and SW are not at the NE part of Singapore, they are at the South.

By right the nearest depot is ARBP but sadly no space that why 70 162 2 12 stay as it is and dont try to push to HGDEP coz that depot is going to explode soon even though it have relieve 87 of its duties to BNDEP

If Loyang only control Pasir Ris/CV/CA it still have many space,The depot can accomodate 500 buses.Changi Bus Park might be handed over to the 3rd operator till the new Changi mega depot is built..Bedok North and Loyang combined can park more than 1000 buses..Hgdep need a sub bus park to complement buangkok and Punggol/Sengkang svc.Arbp also need a back up bus depot/bus park at Bt Merah area..Marina South Interchange..CBD svc

All, a portion of Loyang depot is in use now. The other potion is still undergoing construction. I saw around 10 sbs transit buses parked at the completed portion of Loyang depot today. Cheers.

What time did you spot the buses parked at Loyang Depot that day?

I went past the area last night and I didn't see any buses parked there at all.. which is a surprise. Given if the depot is already in operation when 3/4 of the other areas isn't completed yet, there should be at least one or two buses there if the rest are still out running..

Unless, the depot is not open yet.

Hi mr SBS 9631X, I saw at 9am in morning that day. I don't think the depot is opened at all. Cheers.

Testing only la,standard procedure

I know it's only for testing. But in his post, he explicitly mentioned that a portion of Loyang Depot is in use now.

Idk how he wanted it to be interpreted, but I'm quite sure there's quite alot of guys who read that post and got the notion that Loyang Depot is already in use and housing some buses for the normal overnight parking, and not just for testing (which I know too it's standard procedure)

Made it seem like someone flip-prata faster than the prata man.

Hi mr SBS 9631X, in my earlier post, i say a portion of the depot is in use. The so called 'in use' refers to the fact that the 10 sbs transit buses are parked there. It does not mean that the depot is opened for commercial use. Sorry if you have misinterpreted. Cheers.

carbikebus SG

Now who is the prata man?

23ispolo SG

You confused us with "in use"...

SBS 9631X SG

You confused us with "in use"...

Exactly my point.

SBS 9631X SG

Now who is the prata man?

I strongly suggest you to re-read his posts from last time and versus what he just replied not long ago, because somehow it seems that you're insinuating that I'm the "prata man"?

Which I think is totally out of the world seriously. And like what I said, 23ispolo has spoken out my point. If you didn't understand what I was posting previously, refer to 23ispolo's recent post. Thank you.

That is why i said who is the prata man right?Mr Dupdup words misunderstood many here..Get what i mean?

dupdup77 SG

Hi mr SBS 9631X, I am not the prata man la. Why say until like this? I went past Loyang depot on my way to work every weekday. So I happened to see the incident that 10 buses were parked in one section of the depot on 1 morning. Okay I admit I use the wrong 'English words' at that time. As day goes by, there is nothing at that side and the other side is still on-going construction heavily. So no need to worry about any flipping here and there. I went past the depot today again and shall bypass it again and again. If you want any latest updates, I can update for you. Cheers.

Oh, okay, now I get you.

I suspect that PSR/SKG/PGL route groups may be up for tender when LYBP opens. But SBS owns all three suburbs, so it will be easier.

Still waiting for Service_238 and SBS&TIBS to eat their words.

carbikebus SG

Why must Skg/Pgl which is under NorthEast district be under Eastern Loyang?In future territories is not a matter anymore...Whoever win the svc is eligible to use the nearest depot..If SMRT wins Bedok svc then theyre free to co use Bndep
