Let's see:
8, 10e, 23, 37, 81, 84, 160, 170/170A, 191, 193, 262, 401, 408, and other random premium / special services.
They should concentrate on 8, 23, 81 first as all these are commuter services.
262 is already WAB
10e is quick fix but the VO3x need to be replaced with B9TLs.
37 maybe the stops still not WAB friendly.
160/170 already have WAB fleet - maybe JB side don't have WAB friendly!? But 950 is.

262 is not WAB... although there are PIW boarding....
they have to renovate the berth for 8/23/81... maybe just convert one of the berth specially for PIW boarding only....

What's the reason? PIW board at AMK... All buses are WAB...
Along ave 1/3/2, you have all stops WAB - so is it the bus stop at Shangri La Walk maybe?

That's for SBS Transit bus services. How about SMRT bus services? There are many bus services that are not yet wheelchair accessible. :(
