(Choa Chu Kang – Bukit Panjang Bus Package)

SMRT Buses Bus Service 991 is an inter-town route which was formed by old sectors of Feeder Service 941 and former Feeder Service 308, linking the residential neighbourhoods of Keat Hong, Brickland, Bukit Gombak, Bukit Batok West to the town centres of Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Batok.

As there are only a few transport options that bring Keat Hong and Brickland residents directly out of Choa Chu Kang town, Service 991 gives commuters more options to travel to nearby Bukit Batok West, including

station. As a result, it has to handle a unique yet significantly high demand on a daily basis between Bukit Gombak station, Brickland and Keat Hong, because it is the only service that serves most parts of Brickland Rd.

In the early 2030s, Brickland station would be opened to improve accessibility within the surrounding areas.

Service 991 was previously the highest service number in Singapore's bus services from its introduction until the introduction of Services 992 and 993 in the 2020s.
