(Clementi Bus Package)

SBS Transit Bus Service 111 is an inter-town service directly connecting Queenstown residential estate to the Orchard shopping belt and various attractions in the Downtown Core.

This service is unique for plying the full stretch of Tanglin Road alongside Service 132, passing by various foreign embassies along the way, and serves as a faster alternative to rail services between EW19Queenstown and NS22TE14Orchard.

In addition, it is currently the only full day service plying the full stretch of the Orchard shopping belt on both sides while looping at Suntec City. As a result, it is frequently patronised by tourists looking for a direct route to the Esplanade, Singapore Flyer and Merlion Park within short walking distances.

Service 111 also provides midnight services from the Downtown Core, with the last bus departing Suntec City at approximately 0030hrs.
