  SMRT to make 178, 853, 904 and 947 WAB from 29-Sep.

  Thank God that there are no services like 969 and 811 included in this round of WAB. SMRT WAB services are more nuisance to commuters than help. Making 811 and 969 WAB has taken away so many of the bendy slots away by adding so many SDs. Wish these were not made WAB so soon.

  Just asking, why can't 159 go WAB? Bus stop infrastructure problem or shortage of WAB fleet?

  Is obviously HGDEP problem. I don't see any problem with the bus stops as most other services running along 159's route are already WAB.

  182/182M and 192 from NAC upgrade to WAB, cool.

  168 already WAB since March 2012.

  161 needs HGDEP to take in more new WEGs to replace all the outgoing B1 VO3x. Hopefully by early next year we see the outcome.

  961 AM side cleared. WLDEP side need a lot of change. They can swap the OAC/CAC with the SMB134x and SMB135x spare buses

  It seems like 961 has alot of old servants to deal with.

  I do hope they can give some citaros back to WLDEP though

  Sadly all the Citaros have their perms and taking the 2 spare Citaros from AM wont make much difference to the WL side :/

  I don't know how long will it take to build the blue ad tank but I do hope it won't take long.

  It would be great if they go to 178 though.

  853 won't need that much WAB buses either to be honest.

  The bus stops along Tuas West Dr should be modified somehow...after all the NACs were de-registered, we will get to see more Jurong West services to become WAB...

  So what's happening? The poster cannot squeeze as many service numbers as in the past, that's why lately the numbers of WAB services introduced were dropping?

  are you kidding? what have this have to do with the number of WAB services introduced? it is not related at all... SBST have 159 WAB services by this month..  left only 40 services not yet turn WAB...

  6 8 9 11 23 26 28 31 35 37 40 42 65 74 81 83 84 89 90 91 92 103 107 115 139 153 155 159 160 161 170 179 191 200 262 401 405 + those JIS services.

  out of these only 26 40 83 90 139 155 262 have majority WAB fleet and should turn into WAB next round.. the rest are still waiting for fleet upgrades.. SBST have already done good work in turning more than 75% of their services WAB....
