Plans
Plans for Bus Service 984 were revealed to the media on 8 June 2025 by Acting Transport Minister Jeffrey Siow. The route was one of eight services planned for the Brickland and Tengah areas due to be launched by end-2026, and would connect Brickland to Bukit Panjang and Jurong East MRT stations.
This new service number, 984, was revealed by Mr Siow on 10 August 2025 as part of a media engagement. A follow-up social media post on 9 October 2025 revealed that Service 984 would be operated by Tower Transit and would launch shortly.
On 26 October 2025, a social media post by Dr Vivian Balakrishnan (Minister for Foreign Affairs; MP for Holland-Bukit Timah GRC) featured a route map of Bus Service 984, presumably prepared by LTA. The map indicated that there were plans for Service 984 to serve Keat Hong Close, but this sector was omitted in the final route.

Back to Bus Services
Changes that can be made for Tengah:
Directly to Woodlands and Yishun.
Changes that can be made for Punggol
Directly to Admiralty and Whampoa.
Enhanced connectivity plans.
Most likely 984 will be given to TTS, as the focus is on connectivity for Tengah.
Who is the operator
To be announced by the beginning of fourth quarter this year
Impossible
If this service pass through BP
Don’t think they is a need to plie through express way . It can go along bukit batok road through straight to je. This is not a express bus or feeder
That what I think
Doesnt make sense when you already have service 160 plying bukit batok road from bukit panjang to jurong east
The new services introduced are so boring only last mile solutions. Need a proper town to town trunk service like the old days.
There is one planned in the form of 104 (tho its most likely just a renumber of 43M)
Maybe can suggests to convert the current Express Service 982E to a Brand New Truck Service 982 to serve Commuters from Choa Chu kang towards CBD and loops at Marina South/Gardens by the bay.
Loop at cbd? Lta doesnt want long distance trunk routes to be looping nowadays so they might make 982 terminate at shenton way instead
Shenton way full already. Maybe can go marina centre or eunos instead
