Fleet Upgrade
61 - now operating with 6 DDs in its fleet,
from 4 DDs
171 - Fleet add operating with 24 buses
Surprised to see fleet add for
a service that will soon be truncated. Guess the runtime may have
increased because of more traffic?
172 - 2 rigid add = 18 buses (2 DDs, 4 NWABS,
12 rigids).
Wish they could add more DDs
to 172 rather than rigids as many are long distance travelers
between two towns.
178 - In a surprising move, a SD add = 19
buses
180 - finally gets 2 fleet add (DDs). Operating
now with = 14 DDs, frequency of 07-09 mins. Good move since each DD
on 180 gets 90+ pax during peak hours.
190 - bendy fleet add, now operating with = 43
buses (28 DDs, 8 BDs, 7 SDs), operating at 03-04 mins
frequency.
854 - 4 SDs -> 4 DDs + bendy -> DD
conversion. Fleet = 29 buses (12 DDs, 8 BD, 10 SDs)
Some users here should be very
happy with the high number of DDs on sv 854 now :)
856 - 5 buses added, operating with fleet = 31
buses (16 DDs, 13 BDs, 2 A22s).
856 should be operating now at
frequency of 04-05 minutes during peak hours to cater to
Seneko/Woodlands Checkpoint crowd.
860 - Another 3 buses are added taking fleet
size = 19 buses
Hope LTA/SMRT add some NWABs
to the fleet rather than just adding rigids. Operating now at 03
minutes frequency.
In future I foresee 883 to get massive fleet adds as well given
the huge construction along Canberra Estate.
