Mad deployment, one side you complain that DM3500 were needed in
35 to ease transport loads, putting in K230UB was senseless as the
peak crowd on 502 is high, not many passengers want to pay $2 for a
full standing ride across, DDs on express services was not ok as
the bus could be used at other high demand routes. One is ok
liao.

1 DD is really not enough.. Still very packed in the weekends and
the weekday night trips. Choose SBS 9126M because this bus speeds.
Took once on Svc 154 and it speeds along AYE.
