muziq bus SG Have you seen these messages? It can be seen on the red 'LED next stop info' in the interior of the SMRT buses. Saw one displayin "WOODLANDS CHKPT JAM" on 903. UPPER CASE. but as the bus approached the chkpt area, the msg disappeared as the jam started to clear. In my opinion, its useful on board services like 190 and WDL feeders and the semi-express routes. No flamming please. the most common of course is the "Pls move to the rear" there's also the "BUS BREAKDOWN, PLS ALIGHT" and VO told me about the..."Welcome to the new AMK int"
BusSpeeder SG smrt use capslock???? and i agree, its quite useful. but, not to inform them also good, as to avoid complains by some after seeing the message. this is for the jam bus breakdown they also put? wow, a bit more high-tech than SBST.
muziq bus SG They use CAPS for impt msg like the JAMS and Breakdowns In fact, if they didnt use CAPS, i wouldnt have noticed the msg today. ya, at times, better not to know, but good to know as well. Close one eye
off_service SG Last week they were testing: "Destination (Please move to the rear) *scroll* PLS MOVE TO THE REAR". April 28: "New AMK Int Opens" They also have "Road Diversion Ahead". I believe the system is controlled by SMRT's own OCC. Hence providing real time updates during basic service timings. OT abit, I wonder why some KJ/AMDEP and all WLDEP Habits are not fitted with the LED display.
BusSpeeder SG i remember that these messages are quite weird, sometimes they go haywire, next bus stop supposed to be this but the message show that, this happened before.
Volvo Olympian SG Yeah , I think abt the New AMK Int thing shld be all 169 buses got on the day when the Int open .... also the BKE JAM thing i seen it twice in fact , one on 190 and on 960.
Yaimster SG I took 169 to the Interchange the day it was open and it still showed the Jubilee bus stop .
patdog112 SG useful when my 190 is in bukit panjang then it show BKE/PIE jam i can alight and take 171
TIB1062Y SG And for yesterday (Saturday), i was onboard TIB636Z of Service 75 from Esplanade, and the LED showed “RAFFLES AVE BS SKIP”...
BluBlur SG It will be interesting to explore whether the EDS can be controlled as well. Since such messages also useful for display at the exterior.
C151 SG What about displaying "Thank you for travelling with SMRT" at the last station of the bus route
tintinspartan SG Well, they said this yeasterday on 171. HEAVY JAM ENROUTE Wah! We are in Infocomm heaven in SMRT Buses. Every Bus Company has it's pros and cons
Donavan SG Interesting. Very very useful LED display. Shows jams, which stops skipped and others. However, has there been mistakes in the messages so far? Like false reporting of a jam, say for example, at Somerset.
off_service SG TIB 1184 D (WL 962) had shown "Road Diversion Ahead" for weeks before it was finally taken off. I'm still wondering what caused the message to be displayed back then.
