pierre^^ SG

i Noe on any eve of a public holiday, there will be NR bus
but on the public day itself, there wun be any NR

but for this instance where today is still a holiday
yesterday nite got NR anot?

Eve of CNY - NR bus
Day 1 of CNY - got anot?
Day 2 of CNY - got anot?
Day 3 of CNY which also a PH - dun have

and NR is every fri and sat nite from 11.30 to 4.30 rite
They only run one way or two way?

example NR 6 from Marina Square to Sengkang
But got go from Sengkang to Marina Square?

as long the next day is a public holiday, there will be NR services.

So on Day 1 and 2 of CNY there will be NR (Since Day 3 is a Scheduled PH)

SMRT's NR runs two way.

NR did operates on the CNY's eve. After that, it did not operates on the 18th and 19th. Only SBST's night owl services operates throughout the new year.

Are you sure or not ? I was with my friend at Orchard yesterday, we saw only SBST's N buses. Not even one NR buses from 12 pm to 2 am .

NR services run on some public holidays (Christmas, Hari Raya, etc) & not on others (Chinese New Year). It all depends on SMRT.

NR services are loop services (ie NR6 starts from Marina Centre Ter, goes around Sengkang, and back to Marina Centre Ter). Only exceptions are the bendies which are deployed during the festives seasons. They run only 1 direction to cater for the heavy load, after which they go off service back to town for a 2nd trip.

Meaning its possible for a person to wait for like 40+ mins or even 1 hour for a NR bus if they are going to city on the festive seasons?

SMRT NightRiders will operate on ALL Public Holiday eves but WILL NOT operate during holidays (e.g. Christmas, New Year and Lunar New Year days).

so erm did it operate on the night of 1st january 2007 since the following day 2nd jan is a public holiday?

weird logic... CNY day 2 is a holiday. and since CNY day 1 is a holiday EVE of CNy day 2, they didnt operate. Likewise for the PH on Tuesday where Monday CNY Day 2 is the EVE of the PH. Maybe super low demand?

I'm talking abt when the next day is also a Sunday/Public Holiday.

samtlk SG

The bendies are additional buses.

off_service SG

They don't operate.
