Cancellation of Route Extension
Initially announced in September 2020, the planned route extension of Bus Service 101 was due to take place on 11 October 2020.
However, the route extension was cancelled by the Land Transport Authority on 2 October 2020, following feedback from commuters and Grassroots Adviser Ms Ng Ling Ling. In particular, concerned was raised regarding the skipping of two bus stops along Buangkok Link as part of the amendment.
In lieu of Service 101’s planned route extension, Bus Service 114 would be introduced from Buangkok MRT Station to loop at Buangkok Crescent instead, from 25 October 2020.
