Bus deployment in depots

chikopek SG

BTW is ARBP K230UBs only restricted to svcs 5, 48 and 123/123M?

they can be on any svc controlled by ARBP & BBDEP..

Yes. But SBS8679R did 111 on March.

SBS7322B SG

Same as 178, 853 also has OAC Mercz spams (mostly from 854 and 855 permers)

That's so wrong. 853 only have OAC Merz once in a while and mostly on Sundays where there is a perm 854/853 crossover.

SBS7322B SG

An aplogy that I never state clearly. I mean OC cameos (look on my edited post)

Anyway, is ELBO restricted to 178, 187, 852, 961 and 966? Rarely spot an ELBO cameo on other services. I know last week TIB841Y cameoed on 969, TIB842U did 2 times on 169 last year. When TIB840A was SP, it cameoed on 171, 920/922 etc...

Yahx, mercz cameo are meant to replace the perm Scanias.

There no such restriction for ELBOs. Please do not predict any sort of restrictions unless you are working for the depot.

SBS7322B SG

Anyway, hope 853 and 854 can come under Woodlands and AM though, even though they had a stint in the past.

853 and 854 cannot come under WLDEP due to last bus timings and location wise. Many SLs will complain.

supremebull SG

Are there now any road conditions anywhere in Singapore that prohibit the use of WAB buses such as K230s and OCs? Which may result in certain services not getting WAB buses till LTA does something about it?

For example up till recently 145 and 139 had the exit at BNV and somewhere along Hoy Fatt Rd as restrictions. But they seem to have been solved.

How about other services such as 153 etc?

153 can handle K230s. Its just that HG doesnt want to deploy.

Even if it is split-split?

Was wondering if it would be eligible for OP though, for services like 852,856 and 857, makes things better, Should it go split-split

852 and 857 case was because they used to terminate at Sembawang. Do not use those examples to compare.

852 is because of Yishun, i was wondering if they these services were eligible for OP under WL if 853 and 4 were to go WL, not compare

They aren't because they have buses that park overnight at YIBP. Anyway, if 853 and 854 give slots to WLDEP. It will be very disastrous.

actually better for them this way, the areas they went past are close to AMK, so yeah best for them this way.

What about 980, seriously only 2 under WL, should have handed more over.

That, I agree. I suggest 3 slots should hand over to WL.

One Harmonius Blend SG

and 882 though

But the problem is, are they going to transfer the lances over for 980? or rather make 167 a full WL, like 851 under full AM?

Even though there are no restrictions on ELBOs, But if you frequent woodlands long enough, you will see ELBOs cameoing on 178,187,966, striders on 965,966 are a common thing, just like how a Lances come on 965 and 969.

TIB1049L SG

You forgot to add 858 in, 900 it is like twice in a year, just like how Lances on Yishun based feeder services (not sure if i am right).

900 takes in more than 2 Scania Striders every year ... ... Lances on YIS Feeders happen more than 5 times ... ...

service_238 SG

you may want to reconsider the part in bold Laughing

anyway i think BNDEP is quite flexible with its B9... even services like 197 69 28 31 received B9 quite a few times. Definitely more flexible than AM/BR/SL

I was thinking along the lines of why merc and B10Ms keep appearing on JIS but not K230s..

Actually slbp also have B9 restrictions.. I have waited a billion years of a B9 on 154 or 157 and I'm still waiting...

bndep is known for its agility to deploy any model on any service. Just that due to their small population it looks like they have restrictions.. 34 buses spread over 5 services of which 2/34 are spare.

bbdep though their priority is the JB Mk3s, they also have K230 restrictions.. though I cant figure out how 175 managed to get K230s deployed for at least 3 times without any perm.. 151 follow hgdep then they put haha. 33 also another weird case. bndep put they never put. Trust hgdep more cos under West? oops

Another restriction for bbdep is the VO2x.. then again with only 10 of them they take up 1.96% of the total fleet holding in bb+ar.

SBS2601D SG

I think the last time I saw an LO on 74 was eons ago.

Ex-busdriver SG

I wonder why the VSO except SBS9889, was never given to slbp and bbdep.

Does anyone know why most of the first batch K230 SBS80xx are sent to bbdep and slbp?
