Plus this its 4...8008L put perm 911.
911 can kick 2 A22 out and deploy 8008L
i hope they will replace at least 1 or 2 a24 on 302 with a o405g... i usually don't see wheelchair pax.. or maybe i just spot at the wrong timing
Do you think the NWABs will be phased out by end of 2017? I don't think they will get life extension.

Depend on the purchase of newer buses.Think by the time 132 buses registered,Should be enough.LTA might considered other single deckers by small purchase.

Those which lifespan end by then will be phrased out, no more further extensions
LTA already has a surplus of buses

Might retire some of the NWABs earlier considering they are purchasing more and more DDs??

The first order will replace 50 DM3500s, 34 Volvo Olympians and all our bendies except MAN A24s.
The second order will replace 20 Dennis Tridents and 50 Volvo B10TLs in 2021 (Dennis Trident) and 2023 (Volvo B10TL).
The third order will replace all our K230UBs.
Originally posted by SMB315C:No, it's included in the "additional 137 USB buses".. 122 A95 + 15 Enviro = 137..
All 137 buses will be in Lush Green livery anyway..
LTA should buy the Euro V Volvo B9L single decker..Most of the Engine parts is similiar to the Volvo B9TL.
New Volvo B8L Euro 6 with 280/320/350hp 1050/1200/1500nm

969 don't need so many SDs either. I would prefer 20 DD fleet to 20 DD and 10 SD fleet for this service.

20 to 20=40?Or 20 only?Ideal fleet is 25 DDs and no need to crawl also
THE successor to Volvo B9TL is here . Not here in SG lah but here as in there's a model name for it . It's called the volvo B8L . Apparently Hong Kong KMB is going to receive 1 B8L unit for trial .
Specs for the bus is above ans also pictures has emerged in Internet. HK -forum *cough*
Volvo B9TL axle configuration- Steering axle /Pusher axle / Drive axle .
Volvo B8L Axle configuration- Steering axle / Drive axle / Trailing axle . ( Same like a95 /E500MMC axle configuration) .
Thanks to Carbikebus for the information. *Salute*

Can you post the pic of HK B8?
Originally posted by BusAnalayzer:Can you post the pic of HK B8?
You go to HKITalk Fb B8..Its almost the same as B9TL,With DRL headlights only using trailing rear axles compared to push axles now..(Like A95/E500 rear axles)
Engine is 8litre Euro 6 with choices of 280hp/1050nm,320hp/1200nm & 350hp/1400nm..but with more lighter chassis than its predecessor..Torque quite low..Maybe single turbo
It is really irritating that routinely buses are not captured in the "bus arrival time". Many services show bus coming after 20-25 minutes and miss capturing a bus in between.
This has been going on for a long time.
Surprised LTA has still not fixed it.

I believe it has to do with the IDFC. Tried out 883 a few days ago, and before I boarded bus was reflected. As I boarded, I realised that it was not logged in and BC logged in. After that I checked it disappeared...
