  Alot of the buses in TT's fleet (At least 30%) have ticket machines that are not working

  941: All 3 buses ticket machine spoil
  945: Only 3056E one is working
  947: Only 3046J one is working

  Most of the Wrights have machines that are not working, SG1036D too. A few SMB buses also.. i didnt manage to note down..

  Those that worked issued LTA tickets, except SMB3033X issued SMRT ticket

  On sunday a Citaro was deployed to cater to the long waiting time in the evening but other than that, no single decks on 106. This is actually a great improvement imo.

  I 100% agree it is a great improvement, IMO 106 needs at least 80% DD fleet on weekends (it surprised me 106 had full DD on Sunday) and weekday off peak hours with SD to supplement the peak hours loading on weekdays

  The blue thing is the IDFC (Intergated Driver Fare Console) so the black thing above it should be the DDU (Driver Display Unit) if not its the opposite

  Yesterday I was at Bukit Batok interchange to try out the TT buses. I was on SMB3060S on 941 for a full loop. The bus was delayed, and it left almost 15 minutes after the previous bus. When the bus returned to the interchange to the end-on berths, it suddenly stopped at the entrance.

  Another MAN A22 on 941 was picking up passengers at 173's berth for some reason, and SMB3060S entered 173's berth as well to alight passengers (including a PIW) after the other MAN A22 reversed out and left the interchange.

  Moments after all the pax (including the PIW) alighted, a Citaro on 941 (with passengers on board) entered 941's berth.
