Feeder Service 240 connects residential neighbourhoods, schools, and community amenities around Boon Lay Gardens and Taman Jurong to Boon Lay MRT/Bus Interchange. and Lakeside MRT station, serving Jurong West Neighbourhoods 1, 2, and 3.

For residents of Boon Lay Gardens, Bus Service 240 provides convenient access to both Lakeside and Boon Lay MRT stations. Additionally, Service 240M operates between Lakeside and Boon Lay during weekday peak hours to offer more frequent service.

Residents of Taman Jurong can use Service 30 for a faster route to Boon Lay, as it avoids a detour through Boon Lay Gardens. For those heading to Lakeside MRT, Service 240 is supplemented by Service 240A during weekday mornings. However, travelling from Lakeside MRT to Taman Jurong on Bus Service 240 requires crossing an overhead bridge, making it less convenient compared to Bus Service 98, which stops directly outside Lakeside MRT.

With a length of 15.4 km, Service 240 is unusually long for a feeder route that does not operate as a dual-loop service (like the former TownLink/Intratown services which visit the bus interchange twice in a single trip).

On the eves of public holidays, the operating hours of Service 240 are extended to match the extended train service hours. The exact last bus timings are provided by the operator closer to the date.
