  Why does 911 have a lot of crossover during AM, Does it got to do with the residents staying there? 911 got x-over from 1242U,587G,815Z,1041H,1071X+ split perm 486P n 487L.

  PM got the 3 split perm+ 1159C and 187S103

  913 for AM got 2 x-over from 960 only

  912 for AM i dont think got x-over from any service to 912.

  911 has a lot of x-over in the morning.

  Does it have to do with the fleet capacity or the residential demographics?

  172 got service delay today at around 2.15pm. SMB57Y (172AP06) and SMB58U (172AP07) left boon lay interchange around 3 mins apart. Was on board SMB58U and found that BC was 5 mins behind schedule. BC just alight pax, reset the meter, and started picking up pax at 172 berth while BC go tap card , bus still picking up pax. That means that 57Y is running even more behind schedule.

  Along the way, no 172 was in sight in the opposite direction until when 58U reaches the PIE flyover. TIB714G (172AP01) and SMB59S (172AP02) spotted bunching together.  714G was spotted behind 59S and 714G was packed to the brim. Can already be seen that 714G was very behind time that 59S caught up and front bus (58U) already left int for at least 10-15 mins.

  Then 58U kept chionging but end up still 1 min late when reach cck int. While rest of the 172 AP buses seem not affected.

  58U back bus is 714G so i wonder how long pax is going to wait after missing 58U.
