SERVICE 86 (Tampines Way - Shenton Way):
Tampines Way Terminal, Upp Serangoon Rd, Bendemeer Rd, (Lavender St, Crawford St), Beach Rd, (Nicoll Highway), Connaught Dr, (Fullerton Rd), Collyer Quay, Raffles Quay, Shenton Way, (Palmer Rd) and Shenton Way Terminal.
And return via Shenton Way Terminal, Palmer Rd, Anson Rd, Robinson Rd, (Collyer Quay, Fullerton Rd), Empress Place, (St Andrew's Rd), Beach Rd, (Jln Sultan, Victoria St, Lavender St), Serangoon Rd, Upp Serangoon Rd and Tampines Way Terminal.
NOTE: Introduced before 1979. Withdrawn between 1983-1986. First service in Singapore to use a certain model of newly-introduction double-deckers (i think - those who have The Singapore Bus Handbook check it out). This is a partial-express service (Lavender St - Beach Rd).

Judging from the route, it seems like the current Service 82 (Before 7/12/03). Did Svc 82 took over the route in the late 1980s? Or was Svc 86 withdrawn due to route duplication?

tranquilice SG

I also like to know how service 82 came about.

Yusry SG

According to my research, services 82 (Punggol to Shenton Way) and 83 (Punggol to New Bridge Road) existed together with 86. This is according to the 1981 bus guide.

I realised that SBST & TIBS had too many services duplicating the same route until the PTC was formed. It’s a good thing that this is less common on the roads today as the car population increases

Yusry SG

I believe the real reason was that there was no backbone transportation system back then. So buses tried to bring people from various estates to as many places as possible, in doing so, many routes are duplicated. Now with the MRT, buses are relegated to providing feeder services, where buses link the population with the MRT system, which forms the backbone of the transportation system.

I used to stay in boon lay in my primary school days just opposite the boon lay garden terminal.Anyone knows what service used to served there?Info that it is only jurong industrial services.

The_Bus_Guide SG

Boon Lay Terminal is located at the junction of Boon Lay Dr and Boon Lay Place. It still exists but is used as a bus park. SBS services which used to end there are:

247A to Jurong Pier Rd
249A to Jln Samulun
250A to Lokyang Way
251A to Refinery Rd

They operate in one direction on weekdays and Saturdays only. Buses head out of the terminal to their respective destinations during the AM peak and vice versa during the PM peak. They charge a flat fare of 40c. Info extracted from the 1985 Bus Guide.

SBS pulled the plug on these services but Scheme B buses of the same numbers remained in service. I'm not sure whether the Scheme B services co-existed with the SBS services at one time or whether the services were handed over by SBS.

Due to the LTA's policy for the duplication of bus service numbers, all 4 services were re-numbered a couple of years back. Unfortunately, I can't recall which number became which. I don't know if they are still around but the bus numbers are still indicated on bus stops around Boon Lay Garden.

The_Bus_Guide SG

Anyone here knows about Lower Delta Terminal? Sv. 65 used to end here. Where was it exactly and what did it look like? Any remains to be seen today?

^tamago^ SG

The_Bus_Guide SG

Sv. 143 had the honour of using a Leyland National 2 demonstrator in 1982 and one of the first to receive the LO Superbus in 1993.

off_service SG

Service 143 is the 2nd service to receive the Superbuses, from SBS 9010 to SBS 9017 or SBS 9019.

SBS9818A SG

It is at the junction of Lower Delta Rd and Alexandra Rd. It's been demolished already.
