Buses should have depot code to easily identify the depot for buses
KJ - Kranji
WL - Woodlands
BB - Bukit Batok
BD - Bedok North
AM- Ang Mo Kio
HG - Hougang. Similarly, BR, AR, SL
For instance: SBS3105HG for svc 43 or 3303AM for svc 72

Wat a good idea.!! So switch depot change rego plate?? Might as well ask them paste big sticker on windscreen saying the depot that the buses belong to n their perm service etc?

Better to get K250UB and K340UD. If TRansitlink were the fleet owner and I was doing procurement, these 2 would be top on my list.

K270UB and K360UD would be the best IMO...
Saw only SMB3005C parked at the new bus park as of 1830.

No wonder that bus is missing from 960 today
Saw alot of buses parking at WLBP, including the new Batch 2 MAN A22s... Most of them parking at the rodaside, easy to spot them along Ave 9, but to see rego must walk near to the WLBP...
Buses spotted parking there as of 1740:
SMB3001M
SMB3002K
SMB3003H
SMB3005C
SMB3007Y
SMB3022C
SMB3023A
SMB124L
TIB516L
TIB847G
All parked near entry.
+ No MAN Batch 2 spotted ...
Hmm meaning Wldep n Wrbp combine operations unlike Amdep/Brbp or Bbdep/Arbp.
Now there are WLBP,WRBP and WLDEP. I wonder how are they gonna deploy thoses buses under like e.g (WLDEP/WRBP 911) or (WLDEP/WLBP 911) or (WLBP 911)

And i thought WLBP is the ONP for all WRI feeders,950,965 and 169 when it opens

Any details about the opening of both bus parks?

WLBP is already opened. Changi, I don't know.

Ok2. I heard there will be some redeployments but no news of it. Seems so quiet

SBST's Changi bus park is still not in operation as of yesterday. All work is completed, but no buses parked there yet.
Where is Changi bus park?
Near ITE Simei there. If u took 12 or 31 and sit on the upper deck, u can see it from Upp Changi Rd East
thanks

Take the MRT on both EWL & the Changi line, you'll definitely see it if you look in the direction of the Newater Visitor Centre.
That Changi bus park is still not in operation as of today. No buses parked there. Only spotted a road-roller smooth-paving the new road leading to the bus park.
On another note, think BNDEP is having a severe space crunch already? Their intake of Citaros lately has been more than their outgoing number of awaiting-de-reg Mk4s..resulting in the Citaros being parked everywhere. Sv3's parking lot is now mixed with the new SP & BSEP Citaros & the Sv3 permers at night. Then the area in front of the refuelling pumps, parking is now in the form of triple-stacking (three buses parked side-by-side, the one furthest from the outside road is the closest to the pump if anyone don't get what I mean), used to be at most double-stacking late at night.
This afternoon n yesterday afternoon saw one whole row of MAN buses parking at the new bus park together with bendies. No merc rigid inside
Even simpler, the new bus park is located beside the canal, also known as Sungei Bedok.
