So, have SBS6882H-SBS6893B been re-deployed for the Loyang package?
P.S. I am most interested in where SBS6885A and SBS6886Y goes. They have been on the roads for only less than a year and their engine already sounds 'spoilt' like the other perm 27 Citaros.

They would be better off in AMDEP given that their siblings live in AMDEP.
At most they will do would be to throw OCs to KJ, MAN to WL.

Nay,LTA decide but i strongly feel that the 9 Citaros will be based in Kjdep.All BCs love to drive the A22 beside its the company mainline fleet like how the O405s to TIBS.
Amdep will still maintain a few Taros,OCs and A22s along with E500s and a few A95s later.
Kjdep might be taking back Taros,OCs,A22s,A95s and E500s
How will 43 even survive with the upcoming Citaro 'overload' in the mass-deployments for Loyang package? If GAG doesn't take the 43/34* suggestion, I wonder how 43 can meet the LTA standards.
And there should be more similar cases...

There's always the possibilities of SD-to-DD conversions. Pretty sure some of the services will get this treatment once the new operator takes over fully. For now, you have to bear with the squeeze on the Citaros for the next few months..
For Sv 34 and 36, will be interesting to see if they will do a Sv 858-treatment

34 still okay as they have quite a long break at Punggol,For 36 definately need to terminate somewhere else and introduce 36M from Siglap looping at Tomlinson.

He suggest that 34 buses crossover to 43 during certain time to support 43..

Then those people who need to take Sv 34, they will be left in the lurch? WOW.
Any updates on the SMRT new Citaros? I believe they have SMRT give way to buses stickers.

It's the other way round.
To make way for split shift DDs on 43.
The 5 extra displaced SDs can be used for new Punggol feeder/townlink.

It's the other way round. See my above post.
spotted 1 rego-less citaro with full SBST colour & livery. the rest (about 7 of them) as usual citaros with white rear & front
also spotted at least 2 citaros with BSEP stickers
all at pandan C&C
If SMRT/LTA want to standardise their fleets then its A22,Citaros,E500s,A95s and A24s,Those 51 Citaros can converted into SG plate if they must.134 OCs can sell to Thailand or Indonesia.

My guess for SD allocation for GCM:
Tower Transit will use 79 Citaros and 100 A22s, Go-Ahead will use 67 Citaros and 150 A22s.
