Temporary Shuttle Services

Introduction

The Temporary Shuttle Services, with the prefix 'SS' as the service number, were introduced during the ongoing construction of the new North-South and East-West MRT lines, to provide linkage to the nearest opened MRT stations. These services were designed as a temporary shuttle service, and services would be withdrawn on the same day when the extension of the 2 MRT lines were opened.
