DDs

last SG · 2005-02-15T21:44:55+00:00

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,...

sBs_boy SG

Correction.. even after it was amended into St Micheals Estate or Whampoa, the Vo3x still REMAIN In the fleet for quite some time.. itz the demand that made SBST redraw the DDs.. Demand not that bad.. and.. Nt that much ppl taking it.. loading is Average.... so.. the current Merdz 0405 can actually handle it without the help of DDs on that route..

I remember DDs were prominent on the predecessors of Svc 54 (104 & 134). Why didn’t SBS place DDs on 54 after the December 1993 rationalisation which saw the merger of 104 & 134 to form 54?

5454 SG

i to don't know why SBST don't want to put DDs on 54 i remember there were NAC DDs on the old 134 service and what was the route of 104 & 134

SBS9818A SG

Integrated with Sv. 104 to form Sv. 54, and Sv. 156 plying from S'goon to Clementi was introduced to fill the gap in the Bishan - S'goon sector.

Speaking of Svc 156, does it need DD buses? If there is height restriction along 6th Ave, how did the O305s on Svc 5 manage in the past?

By the way, are there any more DDs serving on SLBP feeders? I remember LO2Xes were predominant on 240 and 334 in years gone by.

SBS3624G SG

I saw VO2Xs on 334 early last year.

tranquilice SG

Yes, LO3x on service 242.

Since when service 156 ply Lor Chuan? Rolling Eyes

supremebull SG

It does ply Lor Chuan…just not the Braddell Road side with the flyover.

tranquilice SG

I know you are referring to the stretch between AMK Ave 1 and Boundary Rd, but there's no height restriction although someone claimed there is. Rolling Eyes

sBs_boy SG

Sorry.. Made a mistake in 156's route.. .i apologise..

The_Bus_Guide SG

There are DDs still serving on SLBP feeders but none of them are perm on those services like in the past with the LO2x. They are cameos which complements the services during certain periods. 242 gets LO3x from either 199 or 179 during the weekends and peak hours. Sometimes a VO2x is used on peak hours but this is rare. Also rare is a VO2x on 243. I never saw 240 with a DD for a long time. As for 334, well, there is the occasional appearance of a DD. So, in short, 242 is the one which gets DDs regularly.

bendy2003 SG

that someone already deleted his post, but still got evidence left behind....lol

iveco SG

I think it is express along Lor Chuan between AMK Ave 1 & Boundary Rd. This portion of Lor Chuan is damn short.

tanjun SG

156 does ply Lor Chuan but at only two bus stops which are the bus stops near Nanyang JC. I don't think that the route that 156 passes by has any height restrictions.

service_238 SG

156 only plies one pair of bus stops along lor chuan which is near Cardiff Court

Tomas_Rosicko SG

svc 54 got aircon double-deckered before?

tranquilice SG

Not for the current service.
