AMK Polyclinic is located at AMK Ave 8.

852 never plies through AMK Ave 8, but Ave 6.

Already got service 851 there is good enough lol.

SMB115M on 700 (KJDEP SP)

Service 911 reasons :
- Pass By Old Folks Home
- Some Passenger Spotted in Wheelchair taking 911
- 1 Student from Evergreen Pri is in wheelchair.

Service 912 Reasons :
- Pass By MINDS
- 1 Student rom Evergreen Pri is in wheelchair (Then Transfer to 911)

Will this 2 Service get due to this few reasons?

1 Riversidian is also a PIW. But I don't think any PTO would put WAB buses on a service just because of one person or just a few because if this happens every bus service would need to WAB buses. Feeders would most probably get WAB buses if there is a large group of elderly folks living in the neighbourhood and that they go pass hospitals or polyclinics.

I guess when Woodlands Int is wheelchair friendly le , there will be redeployments of OC500LEs , den WLDEP will transfer back O405s , Dennis & Scanias back to KJDEP & AMDEP....

I guess for OC500 , 178 & 187 may have high chance of getting it as it goes to Woodlands Polyclinic , Bukit Batok Polyclinic & Jurong Medical Centre where PIW are expected to be seen , as for 852 probably also coz of AMK polyclinic.

I got a feeling that SMB59S & SMB60L and those SP OCs from AM & KJ might go over to WL

I agree with you.

Since now AMDEP and KJDEP each has about 60 OCs, the next batch of 66 buses may all belong to WLDEP.

Next batch might not be OC500LE.

There's a tender for 66 buses which ended on 2 December 2008. But there's no news on what might be the make and model and the confirmed number ordered.

Nothing was mentioned after the tender ended. Hopefully will arrive within 6 months after all the OCs are pushed into service. Not even any rumours are heard, like very secretive.
