There is a bus stop being built outside Blk 269A along Kim Keat Ave on the opposite direction of where 230 currently plies btw. Seems like another bus service (232?) will be amended to loop around Kim Keat Ave or LTA is going to merge 230/232 into 232G/W like some of the people here were saying. The amendments will happen when Kim Keat Ripples BTO hit TOP this year I guess.
As of 2024, the 4th shortest bus service in SG
