Any regular takers of 197 here who feels that the frequency of this service is poor? As the frequency can get as long as 15 minutes interval during peak hour...

AntiDennisLance SG

807 is like the former 860 in terms of fleet lol

While the 860 now is like 855.

SMB1368T SG

Regarding the Seletar Line posted a while ago, I have a feeling it would go to these areas from Serangoon North onwards:

Serangoon Gardens

Lorong Chuan

Woodleigh

Upper Aljunied

Mattar

Aljunied

Guillemard

Mountbatten

Katong Park

Overheard some SMRT officers say some Citaro might be transfer to WLDEP.

LTA did not award any contract for the retender for City Direct 661-665 in august...

so now 663/665 are under TT.. what about the 661/662/664? SBST/SMRT/GA all dun wan to operate?

it seem like the tender price this time round have come down a lot.. (around 600K to 700K per contract, assuming that it is for 2 years as well).. compare to the previous 1.5mil to 1.8 mil...

Dannykhoo1990 SG

Wow...not sure if service will be affected bo...

AJQZC SG

Buses aside ... (slightly off-topic)

If there were a North Coast Line in the future, it could go something like this:

* CRL may replace the stretch from Pasir Ris West to Changi Beach.

LTA can let those express operate full day during weekdays or let those service operate from morning 6 to10am and 4 to 8 pm every weekdays and reduce the fare to maybe $1.50 per person? express service can help to reduce MRT load and in the case of mrt break down maybe can help out. and allow standing or deploy bendy or DD

Any possibility that the line may extend into Tampines Industrial/Tampines North/Tampines/Tampines South (where Angsana Pri is)?

carbikebus SG

How many rail lines Sg need actually?Drill here and there again?After the Jurong region line i think is enough.

Let's Say if Svc 21 Perm majority DD Depolyments operates on a Split Shift or Extended Shift on Weekdays, that means the majority DD Depolyments that operates on a Split Shift or Extended Shift on Weekdays will operate Full Day Shift or Three-quarter shift on weekends/Public Holidays.

Example: SBS7436G = 17S on weekdays, 1A/7P on Weekends/Public Holidays

SBS7485P = 18S on weekdays, 2A/8P on Weekends/Public Holidays

SBS7317S = 19S on weekdays, 3A/9P on Weekends/Public Holidays

Split shift buses go haywire..And split shift BCs is always the one who bring any preventive maintenance buses to workshop during the split breaks.For BcM,Any Am/Pm BC also do that during mealbreaks at depot.

TIB 585L SG

I realize since BCM, alot of bus have dead mileage to go to T2 to start shift and do half trip and some end S shift by doing half trip

LTA should change consider changing all Voith Citaro to ZF starting from the older batch..Voith on Citaro really too jerky and problematic for older batches.

carbikebus SG

Since CGA request Mercedes bus for Airport service,Why not 110 & 858 use the OCs as well?

SMB128B SG

Since CGA request Mercedes bus for Airport service,Why not 110 & 858 use the OCs as well?

Not CGA request one la.. its LTA wants the useless annoying announcement for fuck..

Idgi lor, why need use shitaro? If SMRT buses don't have announcer system how they play the "Thank you for travelling with SMRT Buses" announcement?? Always puzzled tbh. And even if need use shitaro, why cannot use ZF ones?

carbikebus SG

Not CGA request one la.. its LTA wants the useless annoying announcement for fuck..

ZF only 10 units and 136C/141L are training buses.Maybe the reputable Mercedes badge.But seriously should use OCs also for 110/858..

SG5064X SG

Not CGA request one la.. its LTA wants the useless annoying announcement for fuck..

They should trial on A22 also.I can't stand the Taros on 110 & 858 to be honest.

110 can use Citaro/OCs

858 if possible use Citaro/OC/A22

A22 fan SG

I did spotted an unknown A22 cameoing on service 110. Rare special cameoing and I think it is one off issue.

They should use the SMRT spec ones for 110/858...I don't get it why they don't put in on A22 or OC though
