Bendies more suitable for short trips / feeder / townlink
to ferry high volume of passengers travelling for short distance
during peak hours
Average travelling time not exceeding 15 minutes
Concept of bendies is more pro-standing
Short and high-demand routes like 95, 96, 179, 199, 225, 241,
291 are better off using articulated buses than DDs
DDs more suitable for long trips especially expressway buses
like 161, 168, 190, 960, 969 where average travelling time takes
more than 15 minutes
Concept of DDs more pro-sitting and sleeping for longer
periods
Imagine u stand and squeeze in a bendy 969 all the way from
Yishun to Tampines
I still feel fine with a 969 on bendy. They have enough bendies
to play as split, with some occasional full day ones.
