  I suspect that pic was photoshopped. WAB posters don't look like that.

  If 3684H is perm 161 together with 3683K (provided both replacing VO3x), 161's fleet will have slightly more than 50% WAB fleet renewal already.

  Here it goes again...The number of WAB services SBS Transit is introducing per round is decreasing since June this year. How can I blame myself for saying that it is because of the limited space of the poster that prevent SBS Transit from introducing more services by stating it on the poster itself? Why can't SBS Transit introduce twice or thrice the number of WABs instead (depending whether it is from 4 to 6 services), after all there's nothing to be afraid about the number of WABs on the roads?

  Surprising that 179 has still not gone WAB even though it fulfils the WAB quota. Wondering why SLBP made such a haste to replace a huge chunk of its VO3x with B3 WEG suddenly one Monday.

  26/28/155 TPY services still pending though have WAB fleet. Taken a lot time to build this infrastructure.

  54 has only 1 DD yet it is not WAB. All other Service 54 buses are WAB. It is better to replace this VO3X with a Wright.

  Same for 56 but it has 3 DDs.

  What are you talking??? 54 is already a Wab Service

  Replace the O405 on 858. Then CGA will have full fleet WAB

  this show you are plain ignorant of what is happening.....  limited space on the poster?? Pls do not make ppl laugh at you....  ppl already listed out the number of services which are not WAB for SBST, which is around 40... so how many u want SBST to convert each time to WAB? 10????  if they convert all services to WAB now, where shall SBST deploy those Non-WAB buses???  and where they are going to get more WAB buses now? register all the new wrights /citaros now and send all VO3x and MK4 to scrapyard?

  SBST can make all its services WAB even with the current fleet. So many services have full fleet WAB when the criteria is 60%. But no complaints as they have done a far better job than SMRT.

  Is it necessary to replace DD Non-Wab with Wab dd???? 56 alreay have 9 Wab buses already.

• BusAnalayzer

  29 Nov 13, 16:13

  Actually a luxury for both 54 and 56 to have DDs. So non-WAB is good enough.

  Is the demand for both service is that high that it warrants a Wright for both?

  Off topic: It is not high for more DDs. The DDs have been reduced on the service. Typical loading on sv 54/56 is around 55-60 pax in peak. 56: It can sometimes go to 65-80 pax near Little India/Kampong, again loading will drop from Thomson Road. 54: Maryflower to Bishan can get 70-75pax. Otherwise loading is mostly around 50-55 pax for this bus. During school timings, can get loaded. I think the DD on 54 is timed for this.
