There is no need for any DD or Bendy bus for SMRT just normal SD bus will do. increase the frequent of the bus timing will help to make the different. with d...

Their management are just like NATO but Singapore version,No Action Talkcock Only.

I can imagine if SMRT controlled areas with DDs hmm the residents there will surely be surprised.Look bendy days are over in this congested country.Try the HK 2 axles Enviro 400 with 320hp option for a start

extra_guy SG

Please… anything but Bendys for SMRT… >.< they cause enough trouble already.

Just got blocked by one of these bendies at the bus stop, hogging one lane out of a 2 lane road, with their backside jutting out from the bus bay.

But...you are supposed to live with it!

vicamour SG

Yes. If you are game enough, do it. Complaining won't solve things here. I'm not going to do it for you because you are the one whacking non-stop. Day in and out you only learn to complain about SMRT's inefficiency but yet you can do nothing about it. Game enough? Write on your own. Don't link me with their rotten behaviour if you don't know me personally. I know when to draw a line between reality and fiction unlike you whacking all day long. Stop comparing ours with other countries because our land is completely different from them. Their structure is different from us and doesn't make SMRT look stupid. Look if you want to continue all this I'm fine it just shows how juvenile you are.

Grow up and stop behaving like a bullying kid.

DDs for SMRT?

Possible... next 10 yrs loh...

(Some ints and the depots are still not ready for DDs, furthermore mainterence is another matter)

Next 2 to 3 years will do.

Only current SMRT Woodlands depot looks not ready for DDs. Kranji is shifting and there will be a new one for Woodlands too, so hope they will be DD friendly. Ang Mo Kio is DD friendly too but think its lease is going to end soon.

Bus interchange, only Yishun is not ready for DDs but Yishun interchange is going to tear down soon and so the new one is going to be DD friendly. The rest of the bus interchanges under SMRT are DD friendly.

Maintanance for DDs should be easier than bendies.

Scrap all creepy Lances, Hino, DAF and Scanias!!! Buy new facelift Citaros and Citaro Gs!!!!!

No. 2-3 years won't work. They need more time if they were to switch to Double deckers. Even if they are expanding their land doesn't mean they would buy DDs. I respect your wish of SMRT wanting DDs but 2-3 years is not possible.

For YI interchange I don't see signs of it tearing down soon, And I haven't seen it.

Gus.chong SG

Ya dont worry Ah Gong I will scrap the bendies too cause its an old non WAB buses then I order 300 Citaro and 400 Citaro Gs and you settle the loans ok!!!!!!!!!Chao Gu niang

You say you will scrap the bendies, then why are you still buying Citaro Gs? Very interesting to know about this interesting talk as well.

Gus.chong SG

Did you observe the walkway from the bus stop outside Block 923 to the traffic lights (either towards Yishun MRT Station or Yishun Town Park)? Block 923 and the walkway had been separated by a barrier (that I can't even see the shops and even the flat itself).

This was most likely a sign that Yishun Bus Interchange will be torn down in the next few years.

SBS 1000U SG

2-3 years is good enough. They are expanding their facilities and just one more depot. Only the current Woodlands depot seems unable to house dds, which will probably for servicing single deckers only. The other depots can support dds. And just in time to replace the first batch of bendies.

Current Yishun interchange will be torn down by next year. The shophouses around the area is getting ready to be torn now. Scaffoldings are already erected around the shophouses and construction vehicles are inside there for weeks already. I think they are going to announce building a new temp interchange for Yishun soon and it's immediate that it is ready to allow SMRT to use dds in it.

Yishun Central redevelopment is stated to be ready by 2016

If SMRT want to get DD then SBS should get new bendy like Citaro Gs!!!

carbikebus SG

Haiz some people's just can't differentiate between a joke and fact.After realising they mistakes they just replied Oh I was just being sarcastic..Hmm did you learn all this from Taiwan ah Gusman Chong Tai Yik?

Gus.chong SG

If SMRT want to get DD then SBS should get new bendy like Citaro Gs!!!

Haven't you learnt your lesson the last time when SBS Transit sold the 2 bendies to NZ?

I NATOed. Alright. But I managed to live with it. Can you? You cant.

All these complaining and whining doesn't help. Infact they still stayed the same. No change at all. What's beyond their control and what's not, These people will see for themselves.

One thing, either you live with things, or you can keep bitching about it and it never changes.

I still maintain my stand it is still not enough. They have plenty of issues to look after, Not only just the convience but the maintainance plus many things. KJDEP can shift to a confirmed land but they will expand, But not necessarily their structure is DD ready yet. We will see if by 2013 if they will switch after 838H reached 17 years of its lifespan.

SBS 1000U SG

You think land in Singapore is cheap??? The depot might expand a bit in size but definate not a lot for the sake of parking the bendies. The new depot will be build higher to accomodate double deckers, especially all new bus infrastructure are double decker friendly. They want to park more buses inside, not spend more money on more land space for housing bendies.

TIB783G SG

Let time be the best judge for that. I won't go further beyond this line.

The mainterence ah, takes time for ppl to adjust rite? after all, to deal wif another totally different kind of bus leh...

SMB228X SG

Citaros and O405 easiest to maintain!!! Extend some more!!

See the creepy Lances going to scrap already!!
