In the 1960s, public buses in Singapore used to be
non-air-conditioned with two-storey buses simply unthinkable.
Putting the evolution of public buses into place, the SBS Transit
provides the main bulk of the public buses that we see on the
streets of Singapore and has taken the liberty to enhance the
public transport experience with facilities of all sorts including
a TV onboard, air-conditioning for all buses and wheelchair
friendly facilities to ensure that our public buses are delivered
on time. This session provides a perspective of the service
provider and provides a glimpse of the history and development of
public buses in Singapore.
In addition, we meet with some really crazy bus fans who literally
chase buses as a hobby. Some say they are weird and crazy. Meet
these unbelievable bus fans who create their own fan club to
discuss everything about our public buses. Some literally go around
chasing for buses, just so that they can take a picture of the
buses to add up to their picture collections. The best part is some
are not public transport commuters but are still obsessed about
buses. Join our bus enthusiasts and hear more about the things that
they do!
Due to limited seats, registration is required and
