Bus Service 381 was introduced in 2017 as the seventy-second (72nd) bus Sservice launched under the Bus Service Enhancement Programme (BSEP), operating from Punggol Int and looping at Punggol East. The service mainly serves residents in the Punggol East estates, providing direct links to Punggol MRT/LRT Station as well as other amenities along the route.
In 2026, the service was extended to Punggol Coast Int via Punggol North Ave and New Punggol Rd under the Bus Connectivity Enhancement Programme (BCEP), serving additional amenities such as Oasis Terraces and Punggol Polyclinic along Punggol Drive, while also directly connecting Punggol East with Punggol Coast. With this amendment, Service 381 became the first bi-directional feeder service to serve two bus interchanges.

Back to Bus Services
1st ever bidirectional feeder route, one that serves 2 interchanges and isnt a dual loop.
maybe they could even amend service 386 to sengkang Int
The service will need to be renumbered & converted to a trunk route instead of a feeder route. Also there is Service 83 in the Punggol East region to connect from Punggol East to Sengkang. Other Services such as 50, 62 & 85 also connect Punggol East to parts of Sengkang.
With extension of 381, service 386 can be modified to call at Punggol North Ave (blk 683A) skipping Oasis LRT. Does not have to do two turn backs at Edgedale Plains and Edgefield Plains and will be faster for people to and fro Punggol Interchange.
Extension to Punggol Coast confirmed, making 381 the first end-to-end Feeder Service, alongside being the only Feeder to run between 2 unique Interchanges.
381 the 1st feeder to get T1/T2 trunk style?
381 extension to Punggol Coast via Punggol Nth Ave & Teck Lee LRT
Heard from a friend that it will begin mid-September
Does not go to Teck Lee LRT though that would have been wise!
