Service 926 operates only on Sundays / Public Holidays, linking Woodlands Regional Centre and Marsiling MRT with Mandai Lake Road, providing bus connections to attractions at Mandai such as the Singapore Zoo, River Safari and Night Safari. Since its introduction, it is one of few trunk services to charge flat fares.

Demand for this service is usually low due to limited demand between Woodlands/Marsiling and Mandai Lake Road. When this service is not in operation, Services 138 and 927 continues to provide bus connections to Mandai Lake Road.

The service was suspended from 8 April 2020 due to the COVID-19 situation in Singapore. It continued to remain suspended until its discontinuation on 30 June 2022. The last day of operations was on 5 April 2020.
