Yeah true.
SMRT is using most of their interchange/terminals as a parking space in order for more buses to come in(MAN) and save fuel(for some svc) when the bus is starting trip on that svc.

Yeah,I believe more buses will be having overnite parking nwadays
Having buses start at GLDEP save furl wic is a good move by SMRT...
but buses from 966,75,77,853,980,167 is missing

106 buses also park at GLDEP?
Dunno leh,If RWS buses can park and refuel there why not Shenton Way?Unless 67 & 969 buses park there then it's weird.Im not surprised if 61 and 531 also park there
Yesterday @ 0300hrs observation,As usual say numerous 961 OACs,985 Lances,RWS8 fleets,A couple of 61 OCs and the two 106 bendies plus a few UDs and 2 Citaros,Notice that a security guard was deployed too.Wonder why they dun construct a new side wall,proper parking areas,A washing bay and at least 2 refuelling station there?Then maybe SBST 11 & 175 can extended to Sims Ave?
If SMRT really wanna save time and fuel,Then Marina Ctr svc like 75/960,Shenton Way 106/970,HBF 963 and BTM 167 can park here besides the usual 61,961,985 or even 980.Only major overhaul or changing major parts can be done at AMDEP.Lor 1 can provide basic maintenance suchs as changing engine oil and AC checks.

Maybe,if they choose to make it into an overnite parking place
Originally posted by service_238:abang never spot Eunos Interchange at 3am ah?
Got,Besides the usual S shift SBST buses there's also. A few 61 OAC surprisingly.BTW most of the observation is when I'm on pm shift after Werk if I'm driving car or riding bike
Why 67 & 969 park at Geylang leh, it does not make sense from tampines all the way travel to geyang
