tranquilice SG Since the opening of the NEL, more people are going to sentosa via HarbourFront. I noticed that services 188 and 963 are picking up more and more passengers to and from HarbourFront interchange.
off_service SG Not only that. I waited at Farrer Road on Sat evening for svc 855, hoping to see an rather empty bus. But both Lance 245s that came were fully seated, with almost 10 to 15 passengers standing.
SBS9818A SG Sv. 93 2-axle VOs still don’t seem packed to me. What I define packed is the loads on Sv. 88 3-axle VOs during peak hours.
tranquilice SG Service 93 load is not that high. Can see for yourself at HarbourFront interchange, of the 3 services (93, 188 & 963) that go towards Pasir Panjang, more passengers are queueing up for services 188 & 963 than 93.
tranquilice SG Beside the interchange, even the bus stops outside and opposite the food centre were packed with people last Saturday when I was there.
TIB1186Z SG Got meh? I lived in Yishun for more than 10 years and I think the most special bus deployed was that 50% of the fleet was DAF was some time
skeujin SG probably also due to sentosa discontinuing its tiong bahru shuttle, orchard road shuttle n the mayb a little on the ferry too.
Airbus330Captain SG Perhaps they can take some habit buses from 980 to bus 855 and some of the lance 245 can transfer to one of the yishun feeder services that are operating the mercedes hispano bendy bus which will go over to 980 .
Airbus330Captain SG What a pity those trial runs on service 167 , 855 and 171 failed . imagine if the trial was a success and they gets habit or hispano bendy bus , where will that “few” buses replaced by the bendy buses be now .. i wonder ….
SBS9818A SG Sv. 167 couldn't support O405Gs due to pax loads and its terminus at Sembawang Rd End. As For Sv. 171 and Sv. 855 I really wonder why. Did Sv. 171 have double-decks when it was still with SBS?
