No choice... Because of height restrictions at CGA service 27 are unable to have any DDs, so the only way to resolve is more buses in the fleet.

Well, technically we can run double decks to the airport by having the boarding/alighting points at the arrival halls.
But this would just be used to supplement high capacity services such as 27 by adding special trips during peak hours and not throughout the day.
Granted, this can be a little confusing but normal trips of 27 will still depart from the ptb and those who know of the special trips can take them to be less squashed. Those along the way will also benefit.
haiz... one day by one day... and nithing fresh ever happens to sengkang since after 87 take in wrights... and can't take them!!!
156 good choice..
ya
pls open again!!!

Originally posted by service_238:for Toa Payoh service only 157 163 will be next in line for WAB, then 238 73. The rest not possible at all until 2014.
Due to end-on berths right? no wonder the others like Bedok and Serangoon oso have handful that are not WAB yet have so many WAB.

Specifically from the paragraphs below.
"The Government is funding the capital cost of the ramps, which comes to about $21 million in total. By end-2010, 40% of our buses will have wheelchair-accessible ramps, and by 2020, all of them will."
"Second, the bus stops along the route must be wheelchair-accessible. This involves replacing steps with ramps, removing potential obstacles and creating more space for wheelchairs to manoeuvre.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is in the process of making all 4,500 bus stops in Singapore wheelchair-accessible by 2010.
These two sets of improvements, to the buses and the bus stops, are coordinated between the LTA and the public transport operators so that we can roll out as many wheelchair-accessible bus services as possible to best meet the needs of passengers-in-wheelchairs.
The criterion of requiring at least 80% of bus stops to be wheelchair-accessible, before designating the bus route as such, is to balance between the safety of passengers-in-wheelchairs and the speed of implementation."
It's still in progress today.

There is no hurry for that.
Besides it might take a few months for all the preparations...

dun worry, 156/315 will eventually be stuffed wif WAB, just like an example:151. it used to be heavily infested wif B10M b4 WAB. Now, it's choked full wif KUB/CDGEs.
