  Unusual services have got fleet add in this round.

  svc 75 - 2 rigids added (could they have considered upgrading to DD instead?)

  svc 178 - 2 rigids added (fleet of 20 SDs). This should be to improve frequency but not related to loading, as many times buses get stuck at Woodlands checkpoint.

  svc 700 - 2 bendies converted to DDs. Now operating with 4 DDs.

  svc 852 - 1 SD fleet add to improve frequency

  svc 985 - 2 SDs added (to boost frequency)

   

   

  75 still with 24 duties

  Someone else reported 3607 and 5074 in the cameo thread too.

  It's been a long time coming. 860 was in bad need of HC's.

  Finally... after years of recommending it. Would have been better to get in more DVDs than mindlessly have a fleet of 19 buses operating at 02-03 min frequency.

  Great news. 

  svc 860 ideal fleet now should be something like 10 DDs, 6 SDs. 16 buses at 03-04 mins frequency is good rather than 19 buses at 02-03 mins frequency that lead to 3-4 buses bunching together.

  Actually 8 DDs and 8 SDs also okay...9 AM-PM / 4 S1 / 3 S2..

  SMB1602U on 851 at 10pm towards YTI completely packed, pax had to tap in at exit door instead.

  i dont understand why no HC if they wanna employ such frequencies, the whole idea of a low frequency SD fleet will NOT work like this

  I don't think so because of Telok Blangah. SDs okay for 121.

  Nice. Any idea how the DDs are doing? 

   

  I hope smrt remains consistent with its DD deployment and doesn't take it away again or reduce number. What they should do is reduce number of buses that they have mindlessly added.

   

  Make it 16 buses with 10 high capacity - good enough.

  Don't mind those lovely B10Ms on 156 mah. Treasure those buses with great acceleration.
