Go Ahead just posted on Facebook their bus models. Only the Wright and Citaro, no mention of a third bus model.

For the time being i believe still dual control for SBST and SMRT
Moove Media is the advertising partner for GA which complete the pattern of SBST liao..CCB to the max..Already im so pissed off with some of the starters and timekeepers there..Guess i really have to wait for the Seletar package.At least there are variants
The eighteen routes in the Bukit Merah contract currently use a total of around 312 buses. Even if fleet-add all the bus routes, maximum around 358 buses only.
The future Ulu Pandan Depot capacity is around 500 buses. Even if the "Bukit Merah" bus routes occupy the depot, there's still space for around 142 buses (including fleet-add). We can have more bus routes, which currently use a total of around 123 buses.
my guess is that they will pluck some routes (around 10 to 20) from Jurong East Int and Choa Chu Kang Int and put them in the Ulu Pandan contract, considering the SK-HG and CCK-BP negotiated contracts seem abnormally large.Originally posted by carbikebus:Moove Media is the advertising partner for GA which complete the pattern of SBST liao..CCB to the max..Already im so pissed off with some of the starters and timekeepers there..Guess i really have to wait for the Seletar package.At least there are variants

18 is just say only,Later rojak here and there become 20.
I got a feeling there will be a terminal at Paya Lebar Airport for svc 90 & 94.
53,55,58,59 under Serangoon is a big joke!Unless all will face the same fate as 76..
I dont see how 53 can be amended though...59 & 55 not sure...but 58 can bcos likely replaced by 68?
LTA make this package at the expense of BCs also,Haizz dunno what to say liao.
If GAG take only 1 bus model of SDs, then what will happen to the BCs who driving only SD services?
'Jump ship'.
Like carbikebus.
I hope they don't do crazy things e.g transferring all those lay up E500 from SMRT to GAG and letting them repair at their own cost and LTA force return the E500s to SMRT after repair.
I suspect Amdep will take over Serangoon and Eunos package thus why svc 53,55,58,59 is under them.
I hope 99 dont go to full SLBP with its current fleet. Or it will wipe out majority of B1 Wrights in BBDEP.

Aiya,Sooner or later full Slbp
Seriously,I dun understand why LTA give 7,8 & 10 years contract to Abang Adik SBST and SMRT?What competition is that?Im not ranting here,But imho TT and GA should join operate and let Temasek buy some of their shares if they wanna last long in SG.

Haha,Thats what im thinking too..Every other things still the same pattern..If like that might as well LTA/SBST/SMRT set up one new company to oeprate bus and rail operations along with those two player..Wakakaka..My friends at TT and GA all felt this way.
