last SG · 2013-01-09T00:03:26+00:00

U must understand that weekends/PHs svc usually reduce buses mah

carbikebus SG

925C 923; shares the same berth as 925

but

171A? night service?

857A not needed

858B not feasible; who's going to the Airport after 2350?

858B is for before 22.45 buses heading and terminating at T2 Airport to prevent confuse at T3,T1 pax.Also good for split shift ending at Airport if Amdep decide to take a few duties

Thing is.. The SWT has nothing to do w/ SBS…

In fact when Tibs tookover 181 from SBS, there wasn’t Marina Centre yet… 171 terminated at Queen St.

67W is the epic one.. 2 scheme of opp bound…

carbikebus SG

67 better this way 67A CCK-Little India and 67B TAM-Little India

sbst275 SG

got 67A bet CCK & Opp Hwa Chong alrdy… lol

carbikebus SG

B & C lo like that

BusAnalayzer SG

67 is actually one of the most packed services la... Hence, so many SWT.

I think best is to break the service into two to avoid bunching of buses and better operations.

67 - Choa Chu Kang Int loop at Boon Keng MRT (Jalan Besar Road) operated by SMRT full bendy fleet

68 - Tampines Int loop at Rochor Canal Road (Little India) operated by SBST full DD fleet

carbikebus SG

67 traffic condition are predictable during peaks

Should just have different suffixing.

T for Terminating for instance 966T or 55T when they terminate at Marine Parade or Siglap during midnight hours

A, B for short working trips such as 159A

M for modified routes such as 70M, 162M. Even 179A should be 179M or 179 Express according to me. 179A is not a shortworking route because it does the entire distance.

Remove all the Cs and Ws ~ confusing.

A prefix is for alternative routes/SWT, E is for express/ending at xxx.

Personally I would stick to only 2 letters, don't overload the commuter with so many sub-routes under 1 parent route.

carbikebus SG

A,B still ok lar,E for express.Those Intratowns E should just change to T instead

SMB145B SG

A,B still ok lar,E for express.Those Intratowns E should just change to T instead

should not even show E on their EDS

just show

811 Terminate at Yishun Int/MRT

TIB868X SG

should not even show E on their EDS

just show

811 Terminate at Yishun Int/MRT

We are very used to seeing E already and some people may not read the text on the eds. a good alternative would be 913T like what carbikebus mentioned

dan474 SG

well we don't have colour LED EDS so letters are the best way to distinguish SWTs

carbikebus SG

We are very used to seeing E already and some people may not read the text on the eds. a good alternative would be 913T like what carbikebus mentioned

Some elderly dun understand English detail therefore T is essential and dan474 there's no need for color.Just a bigger A B or T should be sufficient

SBS6060M SG

Write

Eg:

159A

putting MRT station codes into the route data is useless, no one bothers to remember them

BusAnalayzer SG

putting MRT station codes into the route data is useless, no one bothers to remember them

If people here can remember all bus registration numbers, then MRT numbers are just a handful and people will get used to it when they see. But apart from that, it is not even necessary to put MRT numbers.

What does the G and W stand for in 243G/W and 410G/W?

carbikebus SG

G green W white.Best for SMRT is to renumbered their ex-SBS svc like 61 etc to 3 digits one.

61-661,67-667,75,675,77,677,106,706,167-767,169-769,171-771

172-772,173-773,176-776,177-777,178-778,180-780,184-784,187-787

188-788,189-789,190-790,300-600,302-602,307-607

Ho sei liao

BusAnalayzer SG

With EDS coming in for services the G and W doesn't make sense anymore.

TIB 501 D SG

With EDS coming in for services the G and W doesn't make sense anymore.

243G/243W?
