I wonder what services WEDEP will come under when finished. I think they will be Boon Lay Services, Bukit Panjang Services and Bukit Batok Services

Maybe CCK too

That's if KJDEP transfer buses (from services like 67,172,180,188 and the CCK feeders) over to WEDEP. I suspect that WEDEP will take in some of the MANs (and maybe bendies) from WLDEP, as WLDEP/WLBP has too many buses (for now). For AMDEP, likely no transfers to WEDEP, unless mass depot swapping like the Volvo Mk IVs.

All the Best!

Lets see how would SMRT settle this.

hopefully wenya is a Multi Storey bus depot.

For maximum capacity? Good move that would be, especially for BSEP. It will be SLBP's cousin .... (LOL) Embarassed

Heard its capable of storing 500 buses so i think CCK/BPJ/BBT will be under them..178,187 possible partial with Wlbp,Wldep will control WRI/SBW/YIS and Amdep will minor control cbd and eastern svc..Got feeling Shenton Way,Marina all Amdep control..106,700,970,75,171,960,966....If this happens Amdep will be the first depot without feeders/intratowns control

I think 75 will fall under major WEDEP and minor AMDEP control, 77 and 106 under WEDEP and AMDEP(again for 106), 171 full AMDEP control(again), 960 and 966 major WLBP and minor AMDEP control. Bukit Panjang, Boon Lay and Bukit Batok very likely to go under WEDEP due to a short distance....

BBT/BBJ/CCK - WEDEP

WDL/SBW/YIS - WLDEP / WLBP

CBD - AMDEP

Then what will KJDEP do? Is it closing down?

That is possible, since KJDEP is left with less than 2 years of land lease as stated in 2013 AR.

But still depends on whether they will renew the lease before it expires.

I think 178 and 187 will go under minor WLDEP/WLBP and major WEDEP control, after WLDEP transfers buses to WEDEP, so that the division of labour between the depots is acceptable. If KJDEP stays, 925 may also become major KJDEP and minor WEDEP control, so WLBP BCs will not need to make any crossovers to 67 and 190 etc.

Where is the location of the depot exactly along Jurong West Ave 2? Is it at the junction of Jurong West Street 23, where 185 turns?

no

you know where's the T-junction of jurong west ave 2 & corporation road (where 185 turns left - SLBP direction & 174 turns right - new bridge direction)?

there's a new straight road... all the way to the end. at the end there is the future wenya depot

851, 853 and 855 can stay under AMDEP. 852 can also convert to AMDEP and WEDEP control. 860, 882 go back to AMDEP, like 850E.

All the Best!

If KJDEP closes down, there will be no point of SMRT to built WEDEP, unless it's bigger but still, doesn't do much help. So I doubt KJDEP will close down n SMRT will renew its license

Nonononono please don't

AMDEP is so crowded alr you want more buses in? It's equivalent to worsening the conditions of the already-worn-out buses.

i have serious doubts KJDEP will be closed. They should continue to control BPJ and CCK. WLDEP can fully control some city services like 171 960... those services like 61 77 106 178 187 963 can be partial or full WEDEP. Also I don't think it makes much sense for 850E to be under AMDEP. OS so far to WRI to do the crossover trips? and Yishun OS to WLDEP is nearer compared to AMDEP From what I heard... WLDEP for that reason should also control most of Yishun and ease overcrowding in AMDEP.
