Bus Service 967 is a trunk route connecting housing estates and local amenities around Woodlands, Marsiling, and Woodlands South. The route serves Woodlands Ave 3, Woodlands St 41, Woodlands Ave 1 and Woodlands Dr 17, with connections to Woodlands Regional Centre, Marsiling MRT and Woodlands South MRT.
This service was introduced under the Bus Connectivity Enhancement Programme (BCEP), a scheme launched in 2024 that facilitated the introduction of new bus services and the enhancement of existing bus services. Apart from serving new and upcoming HDB BTO estates and condominiums in Woodlands South (e.g. HDB Champions Green, HDB Champions Bliss, HDB Woodlands South Plains, Norwood Grand condo), Bus Service 967 opens up new intra-town connections, between Woodlands South and Marsiling via Woodlands Avenue 1 thereby boosting connectivity within the Woodlands estate. Bus Service 912M was withdrawn in tandem with the introduction of this service.
Major schools and amenities served by this service include:
- Woodlands Regional Centre (Causeway Point / Woods Square)
- Woodlands Stadium / Woodlands Sports Hall
- Marsiling Mall
- Marsiling Point
- Woodlands Polyclinic
- Singapore American School

- Fuchun Secondary School
- The Woodgrove Mall
- Si Ling Primary School
- Woodgrove Primary School
- Woodgrove Secondary School
- ACE The Place Community Club
- Woodlands Health Campus
- Christ Church Secondary School
- Innova Primary School
Despite running entirely within the Woodlands estate, it is classified as a trunk service, not a feeder bus service.

My suspicion about 967 is that SMRT want to keep all Woodlands feeder service under one interchange (WITH). Since there is absolutely no more space in WITH, because indeed WITH is nearly overflowing, SMRT placed 967 in WTINT, thus running as a trunk (and probably earning more money from it too).
Meanwhile what I predict is KJDEP might transfer some of its A22 to WLDEP. As much as I wish it is not, I do suspect SMRT will pull reverse and SLDEP A22 E5 will go to WLDEP 967. 912M & 912B might become full SD, their DD will maybe go to 901 or 903.
No, 967 is trunk and not feeder
Trunk service like 181 in Boon Lay?
Why can’t start at Woodlands Integrated Transport Hub? There are still around 7-8 spaces left.
WITH is due to space constraints
967 should integrate with 903 to form east and west loop 967
They R removing 912M with this new service.
I was hoping 967 extend to CCK but he’ll….
Anyway let us see what buses SMRT want to lease.
Hopefully the 6 storage buses at the depot
SG1732C SG1733A SG1802J SG1804D SG1805B SG1806Z
6 MAN NL323F (2 Euro V Batch 3 / 4 Euro VI)
SMB317Y (WLDEP SP) is transferring to 967, so I’ve heard
Not possible because 903 is already very long and if you extend will can a few bus stops from original route.
