Introduced on Sunday, 25 February 2024, Bus Service 146 serves new housing estates in Bidadari, connecting them to the nearby Bartley and Woodleigh MRT stations, as well as amenities such as The Woodleigh Mall.
Within Bidadari town, the service serves the new housing estates such as:
- Woodleigh Hillside
- Woodleigh Glen
- Woodleigh Village
- Alkaff Courtview
- Alkaff Oasis
- Alkaff Lakeview
The route starts and ends at a pair of bus stops along Bartley Road (start: Aft Upp Paya Lebar Rd; end: Bef Upp Paya Lebar Rd), without calling at a bus terminus/interchange, similar to SBS Transit Bus Service 114.
Buses layover at Hougang Bus Depot.

Service 146 will be extended in the future to serve the new Woodleigh Bus Interchange, as well as Hougang Avenue 3.

Back to Bus Services
146 will be based from Hougang Depot (HGDEP), and it will go via Bartley Road East for now.
Okay, with that, we have the first confirmed bus service at the future Woodleigh Bus Interchange.
Presumably, 146 buses will use HGDEP for layovers. Once Bidadari Int is complete, I think 146 will either be extended to loop at Hougang Ctrl or Kovan MRT via Upp Serangoon Rd, Hougang St 21 and Hougang Ave 1. If its the latter, 115 can be discontinued already.
Agree with u on the possible merge with 115. 146 likely covers the future BTOs along Hougang Ave 1. Will be a mid distance trunk service like 116.
Meanwhile 116 itself can merge with 506.
Likely to be under Serangoon-Eunos package. And they should just take the Citaros, leave the MAN A22s alone for SMRT to use for JW.
Nice, good to see the first dedicated route from Bidadari and to connect residents with both Woodleigh and Bartley stations. Hope for more routes to serve the inside parts as well.
