Route Information
Route	Woodlands Interchange ↔ Ang Mo Kio Interchange
Route Length	23.7 km (towards Ang Mo Kio) 23.2 km (towards Woodlands)
Travelling Time	80 mins (1 h 20 mins)
Operator	(Sembawang – Yishun Bus Package)

Bus Service 169 is both a residential and an industrial route, serving the housing estates of Woodlands, Yishun and Ang Mo Kio (and the private estates of Upper Thomson) with connections to Woodlands Regional, Yishun and Ang Mo Kio Town Centres. The route also serves Woodlands Industrial Park and various industries along Senoko and Admiralty Road West, providing connections to Woodlands and Yishun.

As an inter-town route, demand is moderate throughout the day. Peak hour demand is very high due to workers commuting to and from the industrial areas. The route operates a relatively large split-shift fleet along with the deployment of Short Trip Services 169A & 169B to cater for high passenger loading.
