In fact on Sat 31/5 already most perm WEGs are spotted. Yesterday there was still 1 MK4DM spotted at night though. And indeed 161 do have a demand on weekends especially between Sengkang to Woodlands part.
Btw how u know about the weekend fleet arrangement?

If you claim that Upper Aljunied is not the reason why Sv 100 has no DDs, then you should also know the reason. When I had written to SBST, it clearly mentioned trees with low branches along Upper Aljunied as the reason.
254/255/257 loads can easily cross 100 pax.. Why no BSEP yet or even fleet add from SBST side... Totally ignore the JIS area.

They always priority to other basic svc first..JIS all DD fleets still can manage..off peak quite jialat..Sunday and PH no need mention.Probably when all the WEGs and Citaros complete their registration then maybe each svc will get at least a bus.
Capacity Increase
sv 112 got capacity increase, by one fleet addition.
I can foresee that once flats along ave 7 are completed, there will be 2 DDs deployed on this service.

Bad move by SBS Transit.
The Run time for this svc is too long. You can see several Sv 112 Buses resting at interchange with interval of 15-20 mins at the interchange due to the long rest time. Could have just increased trips. Sv 112 alr got bunching during off peak and peak hr.
Capacity Downgrade
sv 97 lost 1 DD slot to SD.
Now 11 DDs, 15 SDs (earlier was 12 DDs, 14 SDs).

79 on sundays only got 4 buses (40min freq). SBST should let 79 have 2 more buses running to act as a feeder for teban residents. The industrial area still got demand leh on sundays.

Long rest time is coz it is a loop service. I don't see much bunching on sv 112. I know you are upset that sv 113 still has not got any capacity increase or upgrade

Did you forget that there is 143/143M for Teban residents... and no, industrial areas do not have deman on Sundays.

Nah i aint upset. Just voicing out. If you observe in the kovan area, bunching will occur very frequently. If 113 dosent get capacity increase or upgrade, so be it. SBS Transit is the chess player. The people taking 113 suffer only. You see 119, no matter how ppl complain, the DDs wont get removed. :P

I have joyrided Sv 79 on a Sunday before, and there is a unique demand, the dds has 50+ pax at certain timings and the ppl taking it are the foreign workers living in the dorms there and they take Sv 79 to travel to Boon Lay.

Just to add... 112 demand >>> 113

i dont think 112 has a fleet add. There is no change to the ETT. And btw, 112 dosent get full easily btw.
If you think the queue for 112 is super long, go and check out 103, 315 at Serangoon int.

When has LTA really bothered about foreign workers? If you see LCK/Admiralty/Yishun/Tampines dorm, more than ~1 km walking for foreign workers or poor frequency.

they say u believe?? they just find an excuse to reply u only..... why dun u ask them why DDs are spotted along upper aljunied road during road diversion? and why sv135 have no problem using non aircon dd in the past? or those Non-aircon DD are only 4 m
almost every road also got low /protruding branches lah.. u sit on front seat of the DD u will sure notice one...

dun have capacity add? change from VO2 to VO3x => 50 % in capacity per bus...
My Uncle drive JIS,78,79,98 Sundays even with 16 mins freq bus cannot fully seated..The workers also smart nowadays..Check the freq at bus stop

So that's why I am asking u... U say I should not believe SBST/LTA.. U say upper Aljunied not the reason.. But u don't want to say why Sv 100 don't get DDs... See the loading on Sv 100... If 94, 101, 119, 125, 139 can get DDs... Surely Sv 100 deserve a huge bulk of them.. Y no DDs on Sv 100?
