last SG · 2016-02-02T12:08:53+00:00

851 got back 2 bendies. Interesting how SMRT downgrades 851 when it goes low on bendy resources, and when it finds some bendies, it deploys back on 851. Its...

I noticed that all 854 DD's DO NOT run on weekends and public holidays. Spotted 0 on Sat 6 Feb (maybe my timing wrong?). Today 8 Feb CNY day 1 went ard to AMDEP at 6:30pm. 3604, 3605, 3606, 3610, 5076 and 5077 all found sleeping inside.

Today 291 also full of SDs..I ever saw 3 DDs running on 854 during Weekends where mostly operate on T shift.

858B should be given to Amdep..5 buses running during peak hours

Yes AMDEP has excess A22's and OC's, can give to such SWT's.

They can even take 5 duties from 858 especially for early trips that start from Airport.Other svc that Amdep should minor control is 960,966 and 969..Very useful.882 can give back to Wldep..

SBS3004X SG

I saw 3604 on 854 on a Saturday some time in January.

All additional slots on both services are only operational during Festive Seasons.. but to KIV..

SMB1333T SG

have been seeing DDs on 854 on weekends

guess this weekend special arrangement due to CNY more BCs taking leave (like how 291 has been full fleet SD this few days)

TIB 585L SG

SBS3004X SG

On the two days of Chinese New Year, Service 43 is running on nearly 30 minutes frequency with full DD fleet. 43M is running with 2 SDs and 2 DDs.

DDs seen running on 43/43M: SBS3105M SBS3141H SBS7703K

Frequency is so bad that I only saw 5 buses on 43/43M! And I didn't take bus at all for the two days.

SMB42P SG

926 got 5 bus on sunday, ytd 6 iirc, today 5

And dont forget that most of the commuters rent car or even passenger of the car too.

256 seems to have kenna fleet downgrade from DDs to SDs on some of its fleet as I constantly see Citaro and KUBs appeared on this service often.

But not surprising anyway since the ridership of 256 seems low.

SMB315C SG

Sunday 925 got 7 bus, ytd 6 bus, today 6
926 got 5 bus on sunday, ytd 6 iirc, today 5

Probably Chinese New Year deployment then..

SMB315C SG

969
Weekday: Add 2 Reg (aka 969AP14 & 969AP15)
Bus: A22 respectively

These slots have been added to the fleet since last year anyway..

SMB31X SG

But not surprising anyway since the ridership of 256 seems low.

It seems like 256 do not need DDs as much I have observed it's upper deck it pretty much empty though.

SMB315C SG

969
Weekday: Add 2 Reg (aka 969AP14 & 969AP15)
Bus: A22 respectively

These slots have been added to the fleet since last year anyway..

By the way, SMB1535C is deployed under 969S152 under Weekday schedule, and 969AP15 under Saturday & Sunday schedule.
