During NUS’ AY2020/21 Semester 1 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the ISB network was modified in line with NUS’ zoning strategy which minimised intermingling of students and staff across zones. Routes were amended such that each zone had a direct ISB service to Kent Ridge MRT station and other shared amenities within designated neutral zones (e.g. school accommodation, studios, sports facilities and student support facilities) subject to access restrictions.

    There is an upcoming BYD B12 electric bus for NUS shuttle later this year to replace Volvo B9Ls registered in 2015.
