SBS Transit Feeder Bus Service 230M is an upcoming supplementary feeder service planned to be launched by June 2025 under the Land Transport Authority’s Bus Connectivity Enhancement Programme (BCEP) as a service enhancement. It is a route variant of Service 230.
The route will be between Toa Payoh town centre and Kim Keat Avenue, providing a more direct and convenient connection to Toa Payoh Bus Interchange and MRT station for residents staying at Kim Keat Avenue.

It’s not so much of jelly generation, it’s more of moving into a time with ageing population. Toa Payoh is filled with many elderly, and 230 extended route caters to them as well as new families at Kim Keat. In principle, yes it’s a few mins walk from TPY int with 230 not calling it anymore, but it’s very inconvenient and impractical for these elderly or people with mobility issues to have to walk all the way to the MRT bus stop, or change buses at the swimming pool bus stop just to go into the interchange.
