Seen below is MAN A24. It might be the last bendy model in Singapore as LTA does not encourage and want to pursue Bendies purchases. It seems these buses are going to be the last and why LTA does not want to buy despite some advantages ? It is due to space constraint which is why SBST had rejected the Bendies sold them off as there was a need of a special bendy slots. This also resulted SMRT having less space in depots which resulted in overnight parking at its Interchanges: Sembawang Woodlands Yishun Lor 1 Geylang. There will be a massive deregisteration and scrapping of Bendies next year until 2021. This year we might also lose 4 bendies if not wrong . Habits will be scrapped from 2017 to 2021 and this is yet to be seen. 2017 and 2018 we will lose 3 types of Bendies. Quite sad. Next year also Bendies on Yishun Feeders and Intratown might have bendies redeployed. Let's try to cherish these buses and hope to have good memories of them. Thanks to @sheeplessleaf for the photos as MAN A24 rarely comes to my place I go to.
