67's quota only 3C and 34M, Is that even enough? I don't think it is even 50%.
167 is 45% quota, They need atleast 6-8 more buses down to be WAB.
966 is completely no chance.

SBST > 56, 62, 70, 139, 163 & 195
SMRT > 67, 167, 927 & 966
56 62 70 195 possible.
139 and 163 i dont think so because of TPY Interchange. the past few WAB conversions left out TPY bus services totally as well, so unless TPY int problems are solved, they wont turn WAB.but then again, 163's berth is with 231 currently, which is a WAB while it's previous berth is undergoing upgrading to PIW friendly. so perhaps, might still have chance. either that, SBS is going to wait till the previous berth to finish upgrading first. yup.

TPY end on berths must wait until 2013/2014. 143 is the lucky one.
My guess
SBST: 9,32,40,56,70,82,157,158,163,186,195,229,262
SMRT: 167,853,859,911,927,941,947,980 -

Svc 67's WAB quota only 15%. It need MANs from KJDEP and OC500LEs/Citaros from AMDEP to reach 50%.

854 no
965 will be nice if use MANs.
969 NO! The queue will get longer at Tampines Int. WAB buses have less seats -

Nowadays, svc going WAB doesn't really need to see the fleet. SMRT can "transform" like you never expect..

No, Worst for 969. Go to Tampines Int and see yourself.
Most people in the queue will wait for the next bus when the seats is full. This is the reason why the queue for 969 is always long. Not many people want to stand all the way to Yishun. Saturday and Sunday more worst, No Bendies. -

It was horrendous the queue

56 Cannot be WAB due to the Bus-stops at TPY

TPY? then what is 105? 105 already WAB-ed. The Middle Road stops are not wheelchair accessible as there as steps behind the bus stop, except one i think.

SBS Transit Launches 10 more new WAB services.
It is 33, 78, 79, 96, 97, 98/98M, 124, 125, 197 and 243.
Damn I thought 325 would be in this wave... -
SBST by right should have at least 85% WAB svc by year end.
As for SMRT unless the 200-300 new buses came rapidly then its can achieve at least 65% WAB svc for its entire fleets.I got a feeling once the new buses kicks in,6xx series DAF,5xx CRLs & Elbos,Lances and Hinos will retire by mid 2013.One way is to cull all the RWS8 OCs for utilise on heavy load svc..61 Citaros can go over to RWS8 in exchange.
For next round 167 got a chance if WLDEP put in at least 4 more MANs and kick out those CRLs.AMDEP alrdy have at least 6 WABs.173 for now i dun think so unless KJDEP put in 6 MANs.853 by right should tio WAB also..But again AMDEP dun want to take in the new MANs due to space constraint at both depot and Yishun.859,882,911,965 not surprise if they tio WAB.As for 961 its hard to predict although it should be WAB svc by now.WLDEP side i think no problem to put in at least 10 new MANs but AMDEP reluctant to do so.Another candidate is 980 and 985.927 is indirectly WAB liao

Saturday and Sunday more worst, No Bendies.No la,If AMDEP and WLDEP deploy all OCs there will be no problem standing.12 SDs and 8 bendies should be ok.By right 4 bendies should deploy for AM/PM shift.

Which part of Toa Payoh? All bus stops along the 56 route in Toa Payoh are wheelchair accessible. Quantify your findings.
