Fare Information

Service 135 serves as a residential route between Ang Mo Kio, Serangoon, MacPherson estate, Tanjong Katong and Marine Parade. The route shares its popular Paya Lebar MRT – Marine Parade connection with Service 43 and 134. The route experiences moderate to high demand all-day route owing to multiple inter-town connections served.

Service 135 was converted to a bi-directional service and extended to Jalan Kembangan (Kembangan Stn) from 28 Feb 2021 via Telok Kurau Road, East Coast Road and Frankel Avenue. The amendment was first hinted within the Joo Chiat Estates Updates Newsletter, where residents would benefit from enhanced bus connections to Marine Parade. The amendment was initially slated for the 4th quarter of 2020. Additional layover bays were also constructed along Jalan Kembangan to facilitate the layover of Service 135 alongside Bus Service 42, which also terminates at Kembangan MRT.
