Right now the only planned extension is to Kovan MRT via Hougang Ave 3, Hougang St 12, Hougang Ave 13 (U/C) and Hougang Ave 1. Nothing further than that yet.
When Buangkok ITH opens 146 could extend there from Woodleigh ITH Integrating with 115 passing via Bidadari Park Residential Area, Bartley Road/East, Hougang Avenue 3, Kovan Hub/MRT, Upper Serangoon Road, Hougang Avenue 10/6 & Sengkang Central.
146 purpose of extending to Buangkok ITH is to connect Kovan residents a direct bus, residents specifically who live along Hougang Avenue 1/3 & Tampines Road.

Would be nice if they can extend this service from Hougang Ave 3 on to Bedok Interchange with 87 and 854. This will probably reduce overcrowding in mornings for 854. If not, Tampines Int is a good idea too.
So I wonder how the extension route to Hougang Avenue 3 is going to look like?
– Turn at Upper Paya Lebar Road and then into Lorong Ah Soo, Tampines Road, and Hougang? Basically merging with Bus 62 route?
– Go straight alongside the Bartley Viaduct once the area sees more development before merging with Bus 45 and Bus 151 routes? That Bartley Viaduct stretch has no bus services at the moment.
