speaking of fleet expansion. i think they have already done
their best to cramp buses into their depots as much as possible. if
you want to continue on fleet expansion, they might need extra
space to park their buses. where to park? along the roadside or @
Heavy Vehicle Parks?
Yes, they have recently done a fleet expansion finally after
6years with the OC500LEs, but it was really long due.
As for their depots, their AMK facility is nearing its land
lease lifespan soon. If they are really serious about public
transportation with buses, an option would be to aquire a nearby
land parcle and start building a state-of-the-art facility that's
DD capable, and of multiple stories as what KMB has done recently
in HK. It takes time and planning, but if they really just want to
concentrate on their trains, then there's nothing we can do
too.
Dont forget fleet expansion also has been called for by LTA too.
Worse come to worse, alternative parking can also be done at train
depots, at least its better than holding back fleet expansion and
letting buses to be packed right?
