Our Bus Journey @ Toa Payoh

The third of “Our Bus Journey” Bus Carnival, organized by the Land Transport Authority, will be held at Toa Payoh HDB Hub on 1-3 April 2016 (Friday – Sunday), from 11am to 8pm. It is the last of the series of roving bus carnivals organized by LTA, preceded by two earlier carnivals at Ngee Ann City and VivoCity.

One can look forward to many exhibits based on the theme “Past, Present and Future”, try out the bus simulator, and experience the two new concept buses for the future. Elusive transport collectibles are also available for sale at the Knackstop concept store.

The capsule machines, containing the six limited-edition figurines of bus personalities, will also be present at this carnival. It previously appeared at roving pop-up booths at various bus interchanges in early March 2016. One can get a spin by either giving feedback after checking out the concept buses, or by spending at least S$20 in a single receipt at the Knackstop store.

Due to space constraints, SMRT Buses, Tower Transit and Go-Ahead will not have their partner booths at this carnival.

At the same time, Go-Ahead Group’s New Bus for London will be taking a tour in the heartlands, and will stop at Toa Payoh Bus Interchange. Check out this article for more information and photos of its city tour.
