then why SMRT chose to switch to OCs?
-
I miss the MKIIIs.

Wa kaoz... Cross border svs is not like local ones.. you need to go over the Causeway to SPAD's office to register for the new buses to be approved to be used... a lot of work.. I dun think it's fun to regularly...

Legacy of Trans Island Bus Sv.. even 950 also chapalang fleet...

It was their idea to compete with SBS on product differentiation (ie different buses) since they couldnt compete on price.
That went to the extent of buying $1k ergo chairs for their buses, though the type wasn't specified from the sources. Maybe you guys know better.
And that tactic worked.......when the buses were still new.
Now is where the problem of mainteinance comes......the frankenstein buses are the most visible examples.

Atas Habit.. end up now horribly maintained...

data indicates that contrary to some speculation, SMRTB routes do not bleed as much as SBST in overall terms.
which is curious. apparently SBST services do not earn as much in per bus distance (km) terms as we often imagined.
It really is the cost in per bus terms that was staggering for SMRT, and I would think one major reason is really how SMRT BCs love to floor the pedal.
Another source revealed that educating Chinese truck drivers in Guangzhou on fuel efficiency tactics (ie not flooring the pedal unnecessarily) saved companies as much as 30% in fuel cost.
food for thought.

eh.. 2601.. SMRT got do chartering...
-
In per bus distance travelled terms, the revenue earned by SMRT actually exceeds SBST, indicating that SMRT routes in fact ferry more pax.
Of course there are reasons also as simple as that SMRT's frequency is also more cui in general, causing more people to get onto one bus than in SBST's case. Which is less than ideal.
So we cant read too directly in these numbers also.
This might be of interest to svc_238.

possibly.
Because that study drew data from 2010 annual report from SMRT.
-

-
I guess 950 is getting "triple-model fleet"? 4 Volgrens, 6 MAN, 10 OCs eh?
