bus555 SG Now Service 119 has apporting timing plates (Sunday and PH only) at all bus-stops. Is it due to the demund or what?
^tamago^ SG means at least a trip on sunday has frequencies exceeding 20 mins. shld be due to change in timetable for 119 after sept's quarterly review.
venny SG maybe its cos someguy put up 1 makeshift timetable of 115 there that complained about sbs. then they took it down 4 mths later n put up their own proper timetable. shows how 'well' they maintain their bustops...... so nw 119 they also wan put timetable to compensate for they foolishness?
gorby107 SG The situation is like this: 3 Full day buses 2 Buses on T-shift It happened like this since last year and I complained to SBST over it. Managed to have 4 Full Day buses and 1 Bus on T-shift after the complaint. But after a few months, it was again back to normal Frequency on Sunday & PH: 13-22mins
sbst275 SG If there's low demand for it, 20 mins boleh Anyway, compared with 74, 119 is way too 'pampered'
sBs_boy SG In the 1st place, the demand for 119 during Sun/P.Holi is like almost Zero. Except in the morning where ppl take from Rivervale to Kovan. Even if they deploy some Coaster or Rosa, they are still be able to meet the demand.
sbst275 SG Sv 966 has the demand yet not enough buses deployed Sv 119 is no demand for it esp on weekends, anyway 119 dun even need ADDs or FAC fleet if long haul like 74 and 151 are still PAC
vivienlee SG The reason why: Sv119 is a Sengkang based bus svc whereas svcs 74/151 is a Hougang based bus svc. Notice tat SBST puts FAC bus fleet on all Sengkang/Punggol based bus svcs
sbst275 SG I actually dun wanna say further Seriously, I wonder how they deploy aircon buses. Overloading problem is haunting Sv 151 again
gorby107 SG If they place NAC buses on Sv 119 or SKG based service, passengers and BC sure will complain due to the condition inside Sengkang Int. The air quality is poor and is not good for our health. Service 136 also experienced bad frequency during Sunday night time (16-18mins) There are still pax taking the service(not so many due the assistance from Sv 136)
TIB1018B SG Quite true... Some of the SBST's services (eg. service 3, 156, 159 etc) once were PAC, somehow after these routes were extended to Sengkang / Punggol areas they were eventually made FAC. However places like Serangoon and Hougang bus services still get those NAC buses. Even short distance service 115 also downgraded from FAC to become NAC Just wait and see whether those bus services operating with NAC Volvo MK2s will become a FAC fleet next year when the entire fleets of MK2s are being phased out...
TIB1018B SG I got the feeling that service 151 may become a FAC service after all the Volvo MK2s are phased out by next year
Simple_boi SG Of cus FAC lar.. u veri funnie... expect NAC Scania to be on sv151 meh.. Or are u tinking there are other NAC single decks in SBST fleet? haha
sbst275 SG If ppl can take 1 hr journey from Macpherson to NUS in an NAC bus all these while all these ppl are just complaining. Even recently when I saw the complain on ST abt feeder svs w/ NAC buses, I wonder 1 hr what you're breathing in is exhaust
sbst275 SG Even w/ comfort ride, overloading still not solved You can see like 40 ppl waiting at NP bus stop wanting to board 151
vivienlee SG Those people can always choose to take sv154 wat Unless those wanna go Hougang then too bad lor
service_238 SG Dont need to feel, its confirm guarantee chop unless u tell me the NAC Scanias are transferred to bbdep which the probability is almost 0%.
