Introduction
SBS Transit CityShopper Services were introduced on 15th December 2007, with 8 services connecting from the various HDB estates to the city. These services charged a flat fare of $3.30 for Services 551, 575, 576, 577, 579 & 580 & $3.60 for Services 578 & 581. For Child/Student fares, a flat fare of $1.00 is charged for all CityShopper Services. However, transfer rebates are applicable on all CityShopper Services. Similar to that of premium bus services, standing in the bus was strictly prohibited.
The aim of the CityShopper Services were for passengers who are willing to pay a bit more to enjoy an express ride to the city with the maximised usage of the expressways.
CityShopper runs from 8 HDB estates such as Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Hougang, Punggol, Sengkang, Simei, Tampines & West Coast to the city areas of Orchard Rd & Suntec City. These service operated on Mondays to Fridays from 10am to 4.30pm & for Saturdays, Sundays & PHs, from 10am to 10pm, at an interval of 30 minutes.
Shortworking trips for the 3 CityShopper Services 578, 579 & 581 were introduced. These 3 Shortworking Trips, known as 578A, 579A & 581A runs from the respective starting point & terminates at Temasek Blvd (Suntec Tower Two) for 578A & 581A and Temasek Ave (Opp Centennial Twr) for 579A. It used to operate from 10am to 12pm on weekends only.
With the declining demand of the CityShopper Services, the CityShopper Services were progressively withdrawn.
