GA not enough BC, so now will have to borrow BC 
How come you know not enough BC eh?
SINGAPORE— Just a little over two weeks into the start
of its bus operations here, transport operator Go-Ahead Singapore
has lost a number of bus captains, and is engaging drivers on a
short-term contract basis from SBS Transit and SMRT Buses to
cope.
The number of drivers who left is below 20, said a
Go-Ahead spokesperson in response to queries. The drivers left
because they had difficulties adjusting to the operator’s
“interlining” model, which requires bus captains to drive a number
of different routes during the week, instead of one single
route.
Go-Ahead Singapore, which won the second
contract put up for tender by the Government under the bus
contracting model, began rolling out its services on Sept 4 in
tranches. As of now, it operates 24 services, with one more to
begin next year.
From Wednesday (Sept 21), 30 SBS Transit bus captains
will be deployed at Loyang Depot for approximately two months to
drive Services 358 and 359. Ten SMRT bus captains will also be
deployed to help Go-Ahead.
The request was made by Go-Ahead, which said in a press
release on Tuesday that the attrition rate was “higher than
expected”. The company said 38 more bus captains are due to enter
service over the “coming weeks” and that it is sourcing for and
recruiting more bus captains.
Said the company’s deputy chairman David Cutts in the
release: “This move is about ensuring commuters continue to receive
a service they can rely on. I am grateful to SBS Transit and
SMRT Buses for their support and we will work towards recruiting
and training more Bus Captains so as to take care of the journeys
of commuters.
