No evidence of any notability, The article generally focuses on buses owned by SMRT Buses, SBS Transit and Tower Transit Singapore however the 3 already have fleetlists in their articles which is generally preferred over lists such as this, Fails NOTGUIDE (imho) and GNG, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 18:54, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:NOTDIR. Bus fleet lists are barely notable and often summate to WP:FANCRUFT. While there are some sources in the article, I question how well they actually verify content and to what extent. The nominator also makes a clear point that most fleet lists are limited to the scope of a single owner, and not a consolidation of every operator within a large city.

- comment Right now, most of the buses (about 4,000) and possibly some depots/terminals are still owned by SMRT or SBS and operated in bus packages under the Bus Contracting Model through negotiated contracts that will all expire from now through 2026. The Land Transport Authority will take ownership of all the assets once the contracts expire and tender the contracts out competitively to operators. The rest of the assets are owned by LTA, and all 4 operators currently operate 1 package each under competitive contracts. Skaijie (talk) 05:16, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Ajf. Point in question above, Wikipedia is not the place to mark up ownership of what, whatever the subject. Nightfury 11:33, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
