In a nutshell, Service 66C was a shortened form of Service 66B
Why this Service 66C doesn’t just loop at Jalan Anak Bukit and head back to Jurong East Interchange? Can be like an additional service for Service 66 if the bus is delayed along Bukit Timah Road towards Jurong East from Bedok.
if thats the case it wont be short-trip service 66c. it will become a route variant of 66, bus service 66M.
it does sort of loop at jln anak bukit, but it will perform a downroute as service 66 from beauty world to jurong east
After all, Tower Transit 66C will be withdrawn as Tower Transit 66 will be shortened to Jalan Anak Bukit from 12 December 2021
