i guess AMDEP didnt bother to program 145B's PIS
maybe
what about the rest of the Batch 1 Taros?
SMRT fix PIS!

normally chionging is caused by tight timetables... if not the SL wont bother to chiong and even try to drag time
maybe they should spread the timetable ...
SBST's SL did something to make their timetables less tight
Originally posted by SBS2601D:Dont under-estimate the additional costs when BCs chiong.
A study in China on chiongster truck drivers found that they consume 30% more fuel.
Go chew on that.
You are absolutely right, but silly bendy boys like TIB501D will never understand that... So childish he is!!
bendy buses are not the cause of this.... its more of driving patterns and timetables...

timetabling these days have some kind of software to help bus co to do up… there’s a formula or method to do the entire timetable up..
if it’s too tight, the sceanrio used may not be correct then…
but normally the timetables do not account for traffic conditions?
my SL friend who is a standby on weekends told me that 966 timetable is loose, while 187 timetable is rushed. after the BPJ int closed, 920/922 timetable became so loose that SLs have to depart the terminal 5 minutes late if not they have to crawl the whole route.

all B1 citaros are with AMDEP... well AMDEP is the most bochup depot in SMRT, what to expect.
Originally posted by sbst275:do your realise that bus stop turnaround time play one important role in scheduling…
Which is why 920, 922 so slack.. cos of the 1st/ last bus stop what if filled w/ bendy bus…
no. the run time is the same from the first to the last trip.
Originally posted by sbst275:feeder bus not much variation.. it’s those major bus stops that gives problem w/ turnaround time..
well i saw the situation at the blk 604/blk 183 bus stop during peak hours a few times, not so bad as what you think...

what loss of control?
Originally posted by SBS 3010C:What about SBST.
Will SMRT close down in future?
Originally posted by SMB145B:PA system can be enhanced to announce the bus stop reference names along with the road name, security announcements for buses, no eating/drinking announcements for buses
Crazy and the cost pass to who?

U mad?
BullshItingS ... at its best ...
I found out the reason why,They always dilly delay maintain simple things until the problem become worse thus the high cost.Imagine saving on $300 items and in the end have to fork out $4000!
