5454 SG why is there no DDs even as a cameo for13,26,32,38,39,54,63,66,78,79,83,163.130,135,162,195,518,506, and i think it is a waste having VSOs on citybuzz as it is all ways running eampty
Volvo Olympian SG These service cannot have DDs because: 13 - Due to Upp East coast terminal(i guess) 26 - Dunno 32 - height meter 38 - narrow roads at Simei 39 - height of 4.3m at Yishun int(entrance) 54 - dunno 63 - dunno 66 - due to height 78 - can't remember 79 - Dunno 83 - height (i guess) 163- as above 130 - used to have DD in the 90's 135- as above 195 - height 518 - height 506 - dunno those VSO citybuzz are wasted not many ppl.....shouldn't used DD
5454 SG i hope aleast after sbst gets the new DDs in aug2005 this sevices get a DD and sbst should put LO instead of VSOs ON citybuzz.
Volvo Olympian SG Leyland Olympian 3 Axle should be on CITYBUZZ because they are the oldest DDs. They DAMM! stupid put new service on new buses.
Superbus SG I'm sure you understood the real purpose of CityBuzz services, don't you? Since you say they are totally unprofitable and shouldn't have deployed VSOs, then SBST should deploy Dennis Darts instead, agree?
Acx1688 SG Citybuzz was introduced to compete with the DuckTours OPEN top buses, so hw can u put LO3X? MOdern buses have to be used as the lighting is brighter at nite, seats are more comfortable & VSOs are low step buses making it convenient even for the handicapped & elderly… the headroom is higher than LO3x. The buses generate revenue from advertisements
Acx1688 SG sv32 has no DD coz the demand is low... sv135 has no DD coz the frequency is high to make up for the high demand sv54,sv195,sv518,sv163 has low demand, do also note some svcs have Short working Trips to make up for the demand at certain bus-stops
delonchew SG No, they should not even be started at all. Duh. I don't understand why people love making stupid remarks yet try to act smart. If you think SBST is DAMM stupid, why don't you go try and run SBST then let us see what kind of smart decisions you can make?
The_Bus_Guide SG This is my view of CityBuzz. Personally, I think it is a great way for tourists to get around the city and see all the sights. Plus, there is a whole-day pass where they can enjoy unlimited travel. This means there can no hassles and you can explore the city at your own pace. On one of the CityBuzz that I rode, I overheard a conversation between 2 tourists who were really enjoying the ride. They like the upper deck and they like the aircon. However, I don't think there is a need for 3 routes. Perhaps just one route is enough to cover all. I adsolutely don't agree to the deployment of VSO. Sure, they are SBS's topline buses but its an eyesore to see a bus capable of 130 passengers running around with just a couple of people on board. I think a Volvo B7R or a Scania L94 double-deck is more suitable.
SBS3624G SG So, the bottom-line is the buses look nice, but they seldom go beyond that, though I agree that we need to make these svcs appealing, frankly speaking, I dun feel gd whenever I get fried on the LO3Xs on 72.
9800 SG In the future for new 150 DD buses this year DD are sv no. 13, 15,26,35,38,39,54,63,66,82,90,100,103,130,135,155,162 and 163 for used of DD buses alike Hong Kong DD buses.. Smile..I hope it...
leeJZ SG SBS 9120 D & SBS 9149 Y are also 10 buses, but based at ARBP. Other former 10 LO3X include: SBS 9001 P (now with 8 ) SBS 9035 S (now with 161) SBS 9037 L (now with 72) SBS 9046 K (now with 8 ) SBS 9145 H (now with 168 ) SBS 9151 P (now with 168 ) SBS 9172 D (now with 161 ) <- replaced by SBS 9578 S from 81
leeJZ SG 32 demand is so low that even with its horrible freq (i waited 20min before) the bus is only about half full (Friday afternoon). 195 is definately not low demand, freq is relatively ok and Ive seen full buses before. 518 demand is good during weekends and peak hrs, not low demand.
