Capacity changes on bus services (Part 2)

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...

Yes like what Mr BA says,The biggest Joker is LTA,Bus Operators just adhere of what they do..Never do no incentive leh..We also acknowledged that S83 and S119 don't need any DDs but again have to seek their approval.

LTA should swap these DDs from GA with the SG plate Citaros from SMRT. Seriously Yishun side needs much more DDs than services like 83, 119 etc.

Hi mr sbs8676Z, they will not swap with services from yishun. They are concentrating on those services given to new operators in BCM. Cheers. Thanks.

Well... empty DDs was never a concern for LTA in the first place.. so LTA is a joker as well.

Look at 119 running with empty DDs for years and then 46 introduced with peak loading of 15-20 pax that can be even managed by mini buses but DDs deployed instead.

So no point just blaming GA on DDs on 83 though if you follow my posts, I absolutely agree with you that it is a joke to put DDs on 83.

Hi mr busanalyser, ok. Redefined.

LTA joker of the year for DD issue

Go ahead Singapore second joker of the year for long headway between buses and buses which never depart according to schedule. Don't blame LTA for this as LTA certainly cannot be responsible for 30 min frequency and missing buses. Cheers. Thanks.

0 HC buses seen on 851 this morning. 3135K solo hero mission town-bound like yesterday.

SMB156U off service until AMK Blk 304 bus stop then transform into 852 in order to bunch together with SMB194J. 156U empty all the way until BBT. What the hell was that for.

u spotted at which location?

GA not enough BC, cannot blame ppl for not joining them

hmm around 730-830 that timing i think most HC buses are BMI bound so yishun bound wont have (that many)

Hi mr carbikebus, do not blame the BC. They are innocent. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi mr TIB868X, I never blame people for not joining them. I blame Go Ahead Singapore management. They release news to press that they have employed enough bus drivers. However it does not seem to be. Up to now, they could have gladly come out and tell the press that there are insufficient drivers but they did not say so. Cheers. Thanks.

carbikebus SG

Many BCs quit leh brother..Cannot stop people from resigning right?

Sbs6750E SG

LTA joker again for not telling the truth about the number of GA BC…

dupdup77 SG

Hi mr carbikebus, something must be done to address the headway between buses. Cannot simply let these resignees drag down the public transport system with them. This serves as a very good warning to Go Ahead Singapore. Maybe should have employed even more in the first place to anticipate a huge number of people quitting. In Sbs transit and smrt, they have a pool of back-up drivers. Cheers. Thanks.

carbikebus SG

The main problem is that they resigned because of the 2-3 service/Jumping buses that they had to endure.If they had just follow SBST style i think it will be very less problem.Even for experienced BC like me feel the stress.Could you imagine after mealbreaks,Your bus suddenly dissapeared?

dupdup77 SG

Hi mr carbikebus, yes I read it. So the operator is to be blamed for trying such a system jolly knowing well that that the bus drivers they employ are all newbies in this industry? Now that they know the root cause, will they continue to do such a thing? Or they will change to one bus driver one route system? Cheers. Thanks.

Just to reduce OT? More like creating more problems

Its not about OT but more to be different..Whatever works outside doesn't mean can work inside.
