Probably SMRT should buy some more Citaros to replace the Mercedes-Benz O405 once they go off in 2013.SMRT should also buy some more MANs too.

I COMPLETELY AGREE that 72's timetable needs to be revised.

It is one of the slowest services I have ever taken. The drivers never/rarely exceed 50km/h even when the road is clear. Best part is that driving at such a slow speed they still end up early (red light on the DDU).

72 is just........ sigh. loss for words.

today's time-wasting efforts include :

1. right turn at cross-junction - no pedestrians, no oncoming traffic. still wait inside pocket for right turn arrow.
2. left turn hg ave 4 > hg central - check for pedestrians crossing... check..... check....... check...... can turn not?
3. traffic light GREEN... let's slow down.... let's slow down more.... let's slow down further............................ AMBER. STOP. RED.

If they make the buses run faster, they can effectively remove the number of buses on the route right? Might be more complicated than this haha.

The frequency can sometime fluctuate a lot - at the bus stop near my house it can range from 5 minutes to 20 minutes... but I have never seen 2 109s coming at the same time!

Nono. Please don't give me back the 109 from those days.

The frequency then was 20 min despite the chionging.

As for 72, things got even worse after it was amended to make the loop to Hougang Int.

Add 10 min to journey!

Even 186 can be crawling..

but it's still not so jialat..

sinicker SG

if they want to promote public transport, perpetual crawling warrants a schedule revision.

people shy away from public transport because

1. too packed
2. wait too long
3. perpetual crawling

people want to move. that's the priority.

sbst275 SG

but 186's problem I can understand... why leh..

The Farrer Rd/ Bt Timah Rd junction traffic signal timing LTA dun make to make it properly.. sometimes need 1x, sometimes need 2x (red light beri fast)...

Here in Singapore, most of the scheduling problem mostly caused by LTA's traffic light mgmt system

SMRTB can use DDs if AMDEP is shifted or refurbish and the empty land opp the entrance can store for DDs.Wldep I ain't too sure whether the 1st storey ceiling is at least 4.5m high.They can retired or sold their current bendies to 3rd world countries for at least 120 3 axles DDs.Volvo B9TLs with 340hp is just nice

How about this,

Free public wifi onboard all public buses and trains...

SBS2601D SG

To risk a tumour in my brain 15 years later?

2. Fren, China BYD has closed down their electric division PERMANENTLY since june

4. Downtrip MAN buses on sv190 every evening[YMCA]

2. SMRT should order Mecedes-Benz Citaro G or Citaro 3 instead.

Myhabit SG

2. SMRT should order Mecedes-Benz Citaro G or Citaro 3 instead.

Yes. I hope SMRT will buy Mercedes-Benz Citaro G in the future.

Gus.chong SG

I hope SBS Transit to buy Scania K310UBs, Scania K310UDs and Volvo B5Ls.

nfshp253 SG

No K310UBs with Gemilang body work!

SBS 1000U SG

I hope SBS Transit to buy Scania K310UBs, Scania K310UDs and Volvo B5Ls.

I rather they get Alexander Dennis Enviro 500 and Enviro 300.

SMB128B SG

I rather they get Alexander Dennis Enviro 500 and Enviro 300.

That will hv to depend whether SBS can continue trusting Dennis or not...

sbst275 SG

Believe depends on how after sales option is offered also..

2. SMRT to take in WAB bendies.

3. SBS to introduce E400 and KUD wif Sliding Pulg Doors.

4. 163 needed one or two citaro perm (no flaming)

SBS766A SG

My wishlist for 2012:

1. SMRT to deregister the bendies early and replace them with double deckers like Volvo B9TL and Enviro500 (Bendies are causing traffic jams and take more road space. It always happen everyday )

2. SBS Transit to replace Mk4s DM/Striders with Volvo B9RLE, Volvo B9L, Irisbus Citelis, Citaro 3 and/or at least American-made buses (Novabus LFS, New Flyer, Orion etc. - Would be good to see them here )

3.SBS Transit to replace VO3x with Enviro500 and/or Enviro500-bodied B9TL

4.SBS Transit and SMRT to improve frequencies on some bus services.

5.SMRT to bring in Citaro 3, Scania Citywide, MAN Lion City and Volvo B9RLE to replace the O405s

6.MOST IMPORTANTLY, no more or less flame wars in SgForums by 2012

IDW Bendies to be extinct in Singapore and your number 2 is very 不切实际 2012 is not the year that DM and striders are deregistering and VO3x is like also have a long way to go... I just wish SMRT don't let bendies extinct after it deregister..
