    Should introduce Short Trip 238A from Toa Payoh Bus Interchange to Toa Payoh East (Blk 23) during evening peak hours on weekdays to supplement the high demand for feeder 238 from Toa Payoh HDB Hub/Bus Interchange and Toa Payoh MRT Station to residential estates along Kim Keat Link and Toa Payoh East.
