Put another DD for split shift..

De-registered, 3818P in. So in effect, they converted a ASD slot to a WDD slot. Timings at different sectors over the past week I've spotted 3818P tallies with that theory:
1050hrs: PSR Dr 1 Blk 210 bus stop (to Suntec)
1535hrs: PSR Dr 1 outside PSR MRT station bus stop (to PSR Int)
1619hrs: Loyang Ave bus stop (to Suntec)And then you add in the 1420hrs+ slot near Bras Basah which others have spotted (in direction to Suntec), so you have a Sv 518 DD that's effectively on A/P shift on Weekdays.
So it puzzles me even more why some peeps say they can't find a Sv 518 DD on Weekdays. I'm not sure if 3818P runs on Weekends too, but I think high chance it does since the e-tt change is for all days and not only for Weekdays.
Hope the timings help those who want to sit a Sv 518 DD on Weekdays, cheers.
Makes sense on weekends also... If u see 502 has mostly DDs plying on weekend. 518 should also get more on weekends considering lot of ppl travel to Orchard area on weekends. I want to see DD on 30E next. It gets both AM and PM bet 55-60 pax. Deserves a DD for long express route. Will also promote more ppl from Maple Tree/HF to take it.

Huge Capacity Upgrade on sv 50
A. 1 BSEP fleet add (3411D)
B. 3 BSEP SD --> DD conversion (3393Y, 3384Z, 3414X)
Current weekday fleet of 15 buses (13 DDs, 2 SDs) from 14 buses (9 DDs, 5 SDs)
** As I had predicted, sv 50 soon will become full fleet DD given the # of new HDB occupation around Punggol Dr, Anchorvale and Fernvale
** Very good job SBST/LTA :)))
** We need more services like sv 50 and sv 972. Both these have proven mid-haul services perform better than short distance services like 116/120

with the trend of introducing DDs to implement the BTO flats 112/324 may receive DDs

Anyway to add on, i do think BNDEP has deployed 3818P on the wrong timings on Sv 518 so far. In addition to the timings I posted earlier, I had spotted 3818P at PSR Dr 1 (bus stop outside PSR MRT) at around 1822hrs+.
So if anyone did calculations, it would have reached Suntec on its next trip around 2030hrs. Isn't that way past the timing in which Sv 518 would have the most crowds from the city on Weekdays? Hmm.
I know 3818P replaced 2699Y, but I do think they need to swap one of the Citaros' timings with 3818P to make the DD experiment work for Sv 518..otherwise it's quite a waste of capacity if it was on the wrong timings.

518 should have added a split DD for their fleets to 14 buses..

Les enquêtes menées par des scientifiques japonais de l'année 2005 ont prouvé l'info particulier lié à la cétone framboise à la réduction de la graisse rapide. La cétone framboise structure particulière est liée à la structure particulière en rapport avec l'épinéphrine et également éphédrine. Les études particulières ont fini par travailler pendant toute une paire de plusieurs rongeurs. Le 1er collection obtenu mieux manger plein d'acides gras et aussi cétone framboise. La 2e collection a fini par être soulevé sur l'utilisation uniquement des aliments plein de graisse supplémentaire.

518's DD loading machiam 107 from shenton way during PM off peak aft 7pm ok lah at least all the pax moved up but lower deck no ppl.

If that's the timing... really faulty... 972 do the same thing.. but I still get the rationale coz turnaround time fast.. and 5pm and 7.30pm got huge crowds going back to BPJ as well... but if you see peak 6pm slot no DD on 972.
518P disaster if DD not deployed for 6pm slot along Orchard/Suntec.

324 will never get DDs...
112 can get 1-2 DDs in future... but as of now just working on optimal capacity.
101 is the one that needs more SD --> DD conversion just like sv 50.

112 bunching too common already.. as for capacity the citaros are doing fine

hard to say for 324.. 225 such a short route also can get DDs .. We never know. Just guessing for fun

324 havent start you all already got fantasy?Power ah you all
-
sv 182 full fleet DD. The non-WAB MK4 gone.
sv 194 got fleet add from BSEP.
-
Not so surprise consider 42 also get a bsep..LTA too much $$$$$$$ to spend la..
-
sv 123 got 2 fleet adds due to extension to Harbourfront interchange (now 14 buses instead of 12 buses)
sv 123M has 5 new buses. So overall huge capacity increase for Bukit Purmei residents.

People have really started bullshitting on sgwiki
3384Z was posted to sv 58 (was never perm). It is sv 50 perm.
3389K was posted to sv 143 (was never perm). Now shows sv 243G
3390E was posted to sv 143 (was never perm). Now shows sv 243W
In addition 3398J is posted to sv 243G as well.
3411D was posted to sv 72 (was never perm). It is sv 50 perm.
** Please do not post incorrect information on sgwiki unless you are really sure
** I am 100% sure both 3389K and 3398J cannot be 243G. It will be one of the two. The other is SP.

ytd 113's loading full till ppl kena kiap by front door bc and pax quarrel
LTA can give so many bus svcs BSEP still not giving 113 BSEP waiting for disaster to happen hahaha

omg u are so smart how do you know im SMB228X omg
If you understand hokkien, Kiang jiu hou mai gey kiang.
U should probably get a job on bus loadings observations rather than posting all ur useless loadings here tmr i email LTA to hire a bus svc expert like u Mr BusAnalayzer and give u high pay to observe loadings

First thing is to improve frequency... From what I see, some buses are either very far apart (up to 15 mins wait) or too close (5 mins, which is too short to get such a load). 112 and 113 hopefully can get DDs soon, even 112 is quite utilised nowadays... Only question is whether got restriction for Hougang St 11 for 113 looping point.

113 no need DDs and extra buses 113 can cut buses to 1 bus at 2h frequency later ppl say i SMB228X. U can ask local blogger MrBrown how svc 113 is like during peak hours later sekali ppl say i troll leh. if 113 got a minor improvement i will complain here uh? if LTA and SBST listened i wouldnt be here yakking
As a frequent taker of 113 im not lieing about the loadings during PM.
113's pm peak/ pm off peak freq at kovan is 5 - 10mins max.
-
Or better a crossover peak hour DDs from other svc..
-
They trying max out the no. of trips for the 518 DD, I supposed. It needs to reach back in time to start its last trip (or downrun). IIRC, it is either the third or second last bus to reach Pasir Ris Int (seen it at 12.40am while last bus to reach Loyang is normally 1am)
S-shift DDs are helpful as driver do not need to waste time to tell passengers to move in.
321 formally use LOs before (according to old forum posts) but that is a 2x DD. Not sure about 3x DDs plying Hougang St 11
