Buses with rooftop gardens to ply Singapore's roads

[Victor68]

Has this been done to any other part of the world ???

Better if they just put solar panels roof to power the lights and electrics

Yes it probably is a better option. Except today cost, there is negative ROI haha. Maybe another 20 years when we have better PV panels.

Maybe can plant vege and fruits so passengers can go up buy vegetables then alight to buy fish and chicken

[Tianmo]

I dont know what kind of plants are those, but they look more like some vegetation to me.  By the look of how these plants are lay out, it is creating a very well shaded bed for many small creates to house themselves there. 

 

Soon, we will have butterflies, bees, bugs, centipedes taking the same bus also.

 

And please dont be alert if a little snake takes a ride in the aircon bus in the day to get away from the rooftop heat.

You wait long long for them to give bus fare discount or free rides. Even when MRT experienced so many major breakdown, you also no see them give free ride or discounted ride for their poor service. Lol.

The diesel burn savings from lesser air conditioning load will be offset by additional diesel burn due to weight of the plants and the additional drag when moving. Add to that the costs to maintain etc. ??

 

Should scrutinize which companies benefit from adopting this scheme and who's behind them

I got no data plan till today, so can only watch chio bu passengers.
