Feel like there is a lag in the LTA system. I don't think our
SMRT staff is dumb to know if it's de-reg. I think what i
can guess that SMRT already told LTA bout their plan and that
they want to extend the UD lifespan for 2 years but there might
have been a lapse in the system. Not only 365 is concerned but from
a fren, 205 and 207 and 185 is also affected. I dunno if it's true
but we just wait and see what will SMRT do.
Do note that the TP can summon SMRT for running a de-reg bus on
the roads.
I don't think that is the case. If SMRT wanted to extend the Nissan
UDs they should have done so long time ago, just like the Volvo
MK3s from SBST.
Anyway I feel that the Nissan UDs should be cleared
off for the new Citaros to come in. In fact SMRT already got a
handful of spare buses to cover ever since the 134 new
OC500LEs were bought in, eg. as many as 28 spare Mercs
compared to only 6-7 outgoing Nissan UDs under WLDEP
alone. And AMDEP got plenty of buses just to replace the
solo TIB365E.
