[b]SERVICES HANDED TO TIBS OVER THE
YEARS:
From the 1980s:
Sv 160, 161, 164, 167,
169, 178, 180, 181, 182, 204, 208
& 372
From the 1990s:
Sv 5, 59, 67, 75,
103, 163, 171, 172, 175, 176, 177, 184, 185, 187, 188, 190, 214E, 214W, 300, 302, 307
From the 2000s:
Sv 61, 77, 106, 173, 189, 361,
365, 367
(Italics = Bus service that are
no longer in service eg. Sv 5, handed back to SBS eg. Sv 163 or
being renumbered eg. Sv 175)[/b]
Routes 160, 181, 372, 361, 365, and 367 are now routes 980, 961,
903, 941, 945, and 947 respectively. (Yes, then-SBS started a
feeder route, 372, in Woodlands before then-TIBS came in)
Routes 204 and 208 became, or was the basis of, route 925, I
believe.
Routes 214E and 214W later bcame 820 and 821 (not sure which became
which) in the TIBS days. When they were handed back to now-SBS
Transit, they got the numbers 378 and 379 (also not sure which is
which). Later intergrated with a shortened route 103 (also a
SBS-TIBS-SBS Transit route) and became routes 103 and 103W.
Route 175 was shortened to Bukit Panjang and renumbered 975.
Route 185 was intergrated with route 989 and became route
985.
Route 59 was handed to TIBS when they took over the north-east
sector. TIBS extended it to Sengkang and renumbered it to 866. When
SBS Transit took over, it became route 86. The current route 59 is
a reused number, and is not related to this route. Also, the
current routes 180, 181, and 182 are reused numbers, and are not
related to the current routes.
You missed out on the Bukit Panjang feeders: routes 343, 344, and
345. At least one of them survives as either route 920 or 921 (not
sure which), I believe.
