Shame to see them go… their lifespan could have been extended until SMRT took over Jurong West by refurbishing the seats, retrofitting a wheelchair ramp and wheelchair bay as well as adding a EDS… would alleviate the current single-decker shortage by being replaced by the SWDEP KUBs.
After modifying SBS2989K with wheelchair accessibility, they should have inserted a Hanover EDS and its lifespan extended by two years to 2024 and then it can continue serving as the sole CNG bus until its retirement with other Euro IV buses like the K230UB.
