LTA bans bendy
to put it simply, LTA has set down new rules on buses. one which irritates the mind of the oh so many bus fans in singapore. "no more purchase of new articulated buses'.
what this means is, "NO MORE NEW BENDY BUSES for SMRT". this seems to be an exact replica of what happened to London, just that they even had to pull out the bendies from service.
but in singapore, the remaining bendies on the street are allowed to carry on as usual till their death.
so treasure your bendy ride for they may never appear on our shores ever again.
and this means that SMRT would have to resort to replacing the bendies with double deckers as an effective mode of people carrier.
the only flaw is that services that plies routes with height restrictions cannot enjoy the double dees. in particular service 176. but that would be the problem of the future and i should have no involvment to it.
so i shall leave that matter as that.
