AMDEP- Partial control of 61,67,75,77,106,169,171,190,965,969,980,985,700,700A,970,857,858,854,966,853,

850E go to AMDEP.

My predictions.

851, 853 and 855 can stay under AMDEP. 852 can also convert to AMDEP and WEDEP control. 860, 882 go back to AMDEP, like 850E.

All the Best! SG

If KJDEP closes down, there will be no point of SMRT to built WEDEP, unless it's bigger but still, doesn't do much help. So I doubt KJDEP will close down n SMRT will renew its license

Nonononono please don't

AMDEP is so crowded alr you want more buses in? It's equivalent to worsening the conditions of the already-worn-out buses.

i have serious doubts KJDEP will be closed. They should continue to control BPJ and CCK. WLDEP can fully control some city services like 171 960... those services like 61 77 106 178 187 963 can be partial or full WEDEP. Also I don't think it makes much sense for 850E to be under AMDEP. OS so far to WRI to do the crossover trips? and Yishun OS to WLDEP is nearer compared to AMDEP From what I heard... WLDEP for that reason should also control most of Yishun and ease overcrowding in AMDEP.

from what you heard , leaked info

carbikebus SG

Wenya is exclusively for BBT/CCK/BNL and upcoming tengah town and if they keen to keep KJDEP then it will control BPJ and some of CCK svc.Woodlands depot & bus park will control Yishun,Sembawang and of course Woodlands.Amdep meanwhile will control CBD/BTM/HBF and eastern svc.167 will definately be minor control with only Amdep control Split or TQ duties,176 might be KJDEP and minor Split duties AMDEP and 851major WLDEP while split duties to AMDEP..No point Amdep control Yishun cause of the depot capacity.

TPS Timothy Mok SG

I have serious doubt that 180 should be from Wenya Depot (WEDEP) cos it is from Boon Lay yet.

Which area will be developed first?

Simpang or Tengah? Tengah nothing is marked yet, for Simpang you at least have the future roads marked out with Admiralty East road going all the way to Simpang.

Also, along Yishun Ring Road and Yishun Ave 1 (on both west and east of Yis Ave 2), there is a lot of space with roads marked. Same for Sembawang - wonder if these areas will also be developed to cater to the increasing population.

(OFF-TOPIC) When Simpang town is developed, they will be at least one MRT station and Simpang LRT, due to its size. Is the LRT connecting to Yishun? Anyway, a bus interchange is in the plan, with what I suspect will have services connecting to Sembawang, Yishun, Woodlands, Bukit Batok/Panjang, Choa Chu Kang and the city. Sorry for going off-topic.

23ispolo SG

Anyway, I suspect that 530, 868 and 982E will go under WEDEP, with 184 going under both WEDEP and WLBP control.

TIB 585L SG

184 should be full WEDEP. I dont think there is a need for 2 depot control for 184 since it is a loop service and the last bus still go back to BPJ

23ispolo SG

I thought so too, LOL! Anyway, 176 and 177 can also become full WEDEP like 184.

TIB 585L SG

176 depends, It can be partial WEDEP and AMDEP.

850E go to AMDEP.

My predictions.

If 851 853 855 goes under WLDEP control, They also must consider last bus issues from each side, eg if both last buses are WLDEP-bound or split, meaning WLDEP and AMDEP takes different side meaning if last car to BM is AM block, last to YI is WLD block, it makes sense. Note that 854's case the first few duties call off at YI.

961 formerly the last car from both sides are AM block, only on sunday the 6th bus goes to GL1 is from WL. Now it seems like both might be WL block though. I remember in the days where goes under split controls they keep pulling the WLD slot back early.

For 854 it makes sense because the last 2(4 5 or 6) cars belong to WLDEP (if they pull duty 5 back)

23ispolo SG

176 depends, It can be partial WEDEP and AMDEP.

I guess AMDEP is for Bukit Merah, right?

TIB 585L SG

I guess AMDEP is for Bukit Merah, right?

Yeah for 2 of the 3 SMRT service. 176 is KJ/WL for now

TIB 585L SG

For 854 it makes sense because the last 2(4 5 or 6) cars belong to WLDEP (if they pull duty 5 back)

I dont understand why 961 last bus is from WLDEP (443M) and once (608E) instead of the AMDEP MANs like last time. 969 on certain days the last bus to Tamp is from WLDEP. 963,966,960,187,178 cant say much coz all are sole WLDEP control and they reach WLDEP by 2am.

TIB783G SG

961 clearly has last bus issues, put it this way, if they split equally means both are AM blocks and it is going to be troublesome because the route to GYDEP is different in terms of timing.

so if 443M departs WRI at 2330 it would look this way:

2330 Woodlands Reg Int

2458 Geylang Lorong 1 Terminal

2458 Geylang Lorong 1 Terminial

2549 Overnight parking at WLD Bus

Usually 178 buses reach WLDEP/WLBP by 2515 so not much.

But 961's case it is a real headache because the last bus to WL back to AM then OVN at GYDEP takes up alot of time.

Imagine the AM 961 driver finishes his shift at 2455, goes back to AMDEP at 2520 then brings the bus back to GYDEP for OVN and finishes at 2550 it's really tiring no joke.

I have never seen timesheet goes to 2600hours. Latest is 2546 hours, 858 last bus to CGA and back to Woodlands. That means 2600 hours bus starts will be the last to start for duty then

AMDEP to GYDEP what route they used? I only know CTE is a confirm way
