Service 854 is an inter-town route linking Yishun, Yio Chu Kang Road, Hougang, Eunos and Bedok. The route is frequented as a popular connection between various housing estates, as well as serving Ang Mo Kio Industrial Estate & Industrial Park 3 along Yio Chu Kang Road and more industries around Ubi and Eunos. The route encounters moderate to high demand throughout the day, with especially high demand during the peak hours due to increased inter-town commute and workers from the industrial estate.

The route shares a large proportion of its route with Service 25, its main competitor for the high demand sectors between Hougang Ave 2 and Bedok. Additionally, Service 854 also compliments Service 857 between Yishun and Yio Chu Kang Road.

    yes, you’re right. there is no need to amend 854
    854 has been serving a few schools such as Eunos primary which need 854 to go to Kembangan, Eunos and Bedok because 25 frequency is low

        Half of Hougang already gotten SBST 87 to Bedok. Other words, you feedback to LTA to have new direct service from Hougang to Bedok. SMRT 854 demand is very high and if you amend inside Hougang, it will cause inconvenience to 854 residents & workers.

        Ave 4 is served by 72 (to Tampines).

        Actually, the eastern half of Hougang is served by SBST service 87. There isn’t an emergency needed to divert TTS 854 to go the route; it wastes time for those who lives around Serangoon North (especially those who live near Salvation Army at Yio Chu Kang Road).
