550 new Wrights on which routes?

last SG · 2012-07-15T20:11:59+00:00

The B10Ms have a good capacity though. 51 seats compared to the new SDs that have only 31-36 seats. But yes if those routes are replaced with the Wrights - n...

Ya Lor,Extend to Sims Pl more better..At least got friend with 64.Then old folks can take to Aljunied MRT,Geylang and National Std.69 should extend to Eunos ah,Can better.

69 is more a TP bus sv wo.. lol

Seriously, if talking abt eastern corridor neighbour svs, then 18 better can extend least to Eunos or Geylang Lor 1...

101, 113 does not need ADD.. true it has high loading, but it's not as high as other svs... More so, 113's freq is alrdy 15 mins... and BSEP requires bus sv either to be < 85% or below 12 mins (the next 10%)... so figure this out...

The demand of svc 113 builds up every 5 minutes at Kovan stn.. And the peak hour frequency at Kovan station is 7-9 mins. E.g 113 arrives at Kovan stn at 630pm,113A arrives at Kovan station at 638pm, like a cycle. But every bus of 113/113A have standees and most of the time full to the door loads even when there is 113A helping to cope the load.

I have always been the champion for a full DD fleet for 74 courtesy of its outrageous all-day loading.

But never once have I had the courage/cheek/however-you-call-it, to claim that 74 is within the top 5.

Because I acknowledge myself to have inadequete information.

And get this.

101 does not need DD. I dont know why a mere mention of it by me and now discussions are now on whether 101 shld have DD.

And also get this: If 101 doesnt get DD, I'm sure as hell, 113 need 0 DDs.

-end of message-

101 can't get dds due to turning restriction right? I think dds can't make a roundabout there. Abit unstable may topple I think.

ur so called demand build up every 5 min is nothing compare to other high crush loading trunk svc...

in fact, which svc passing by a mrt station or bus interchange will not get full during peak hr one???

if u still consider 113 a semi-feeder route, go take a look at other feeder/intratown routes like 241,291,806,911 during their peak hr.. even they use high loading bus like double deck/bendy also full to the door lor

U don't noe if 113 will get full dd load right? Every bus tht departs hougang st 21 is >45pax. And er 354,153,132,112,119,115,284,282,272 don't get full Leh.. Still got sum more bus svcs I lazy type

SBS5010P SG

Just add more buses can already, no need DDs..

Problem with 113 is not freq wor. It's the capacity

Wrong!! Can take 90pax!!

lol if like that then why 132 and 153 got DDs? I've ever took a full bus Dennis Trident on 153. 132's loading also high. 119 used to have DDs..

TIB1218R SG

Just add few buses, it will be frequent and capacity will be lower

I think main reason for 153,132,165 of having dds is more like advertising purposes

On Friday, I studied these 3 routes in more detail.

153 high loading is between Serangoon and Toa Payoh/

132 high loading as before stated is between Hougang Ave 2 and AMK, and again from Redhill to Henderson road

165 high loading is from Hougang to AMK only.

Have you ever seen 55 pax standing in a Citaro? After 30-35 pax enter, the BC shuts the door because people don't move in and it gets really cramped.

What do you expect? People after a tired day or on their way to work should cramp in a bus - Is this comfortable traveling we are talking about?

Citaros are good on routes like 123 where the load is not high.

BusAnalayzer SG

I feel if the load is increased by 30-40 pax, no extra bus is required. Just put a DD. You save costs of a BC and running an additional bus. But if the capacity increase is as much as another SD, makes sense to add buses.

What's the point?

Then ppl buy double decks for what?

Do they have 15 mins peak hr freq as like 113???

you know QoS 10 mins peak hr headways for the feeders that has to operate to the last MRT arrival like 354, 284, 282, 272...
