CT8/CT18 weekday 1030-1700 weekend 1000-2030 with a fleet of 7/8 buses.
CT28 weekend 1000-2100 with a fleet of 5 buses.
Huh? Why cut short CT8/18 timings on sat sun?

Hi mr SMB128B, I saw him many times at pasir ris interchange, Punggol interchange and loyang depot near gate area opposite loyang point which is still under construction. Cheers. Thanks.
What past is past,Now Deputy Chairman taking over.
Heard SMRT will still be using KJDEP and AMDEP even if Mandai is ready.KJDEP for most of CCK svc and AMDEP for most of Eastern svc.Woodlands will be refurb to make more clearance for DDs and i guess they will stop ONP at Bulim and Loyang respectively
I guess
S172,180,184,300,301,302,307,308,979 & 983 all will at KJ while the rest will park at Mandai.
S853,854,856,859,882,883,966 & 969 will park at AM.
A friend told me that 167 & 176 is now full AMDEP and KJDEP respectively..
167 Am/Pm Onp at Sbw Int and 176 Am/Pm park at Bpj Ter.
Wah,Wldep Standby BCs all shake legs liao.

There's no HC buses on 167 ... fleet wise it wont make too much of a difference perhaps except going full Shitaro eventually which is still full SD.
Thought some red/white 167 Shitaros onp at Geylang? Still see like 2 or 3 parking there every night when pass by.

I think for any services with SD that is just going to happen eventually unless LTA will want to explore getting another model for SD, or designating the A22 over the Shitaro as the dominant SD model to procure for bus packages in the immediate future.
There aren't enough new A22's to go around to replace retiring old SD's or to fill in vacant slots left blank by previous SD's redeployed to other or new services.
If LTA takes away the remaining BSEP A22's from SMRT to give to other operators, KJDEP and WLDEP will probably have no choice but to take in Shitaros as replacements too.
I really hope that TT wins Seletar.I will definitely join them.I don't mind riding my motorcycle a few KM more to Seletar.

Dont think WLDEP will be taking in them soon... Not enough adblue to go around
Hopefully my dear svc 858 continues to be uncontaminated as it is now...

Wldep so big yet cannot afford to take a few more adblue containers?SMRT loyang got 3,Amdep got 5,Kjdep already got 6 and Budep got 3,Is not everyday the same bus refill anyway.They check until half then they top up.

They should bring in K270UB along with E500 Mk4.

I beg to differ. I hope for a 5th company, preferably Asian.

Not that I'm complaining...
If they do have more adblue I'd expect the OCs to return as well...

Wldep only refill adblue for a small batch of B9TLs and Enviros..I can't see why they can't bring in 2-3 more containers of adblue?
so LTA bought another 15 E500.

Seriously I'd rather they buy more A95...
But well, I guess anything's better than the lousy, underspec-ed B9s isnt it
Originally posted by AntiDennisLance:Did they? But why only 15?
Maybe for svc 851 and 860 in Seletar Package.
851 most probably with 17 A22s and 10 E500 facelift while 860 a mixture of Citaro,B9TL and 5 E500 facelift.

It's not facelift... The 15 E500 will use old MMC bodywork...
