SBS Transit Limited (simplified Chinese: 新捷运; traditional Chinese: 新捷運; pinyin: Xīnjiéyùn, SGX: S61 ) is a public transport operator in Singapore. Its major competitor in Singapore's duopoly transport system is SMRT Corporation, which also operates bus, rail, taxi and other transport services.

The company (organisation) was formed as a separately listed subsidiary in November 1997 under the name of Singapore Bus Services Limited, although it can trace its history back to the formation of Singapore Bus Service in 1973 with the merger of three bus companies. On 1 November 2001, the company's name was changed to SBS Transit Limited to reflect its status as a bus and rail operator.

Its parent company is ComfortDelGro Corporation, which was formerly known as DelGro Corporation Limited. The parent company has Singapore Bus Service as its direct predecessor.

In 2003, SBS Transit started operating the North East MRT Line of the Mass Rapid Transit system in addition to its existing bus operations. On 29 August 2011, SBS Transit was given the operation license for the Downtown MRT Line, which would start in 2013.

History

Singapore Bus Service (SBS) was initially formed in 1973 with the merger of three private bus companies. The government-sanctioned merger was undertaken to improve service standards of the bus transport system.

With the shift towards the creation of multi-modal transport companies, Singapore Bus Service Ltd changed its name to DelGro Corporation Limited in November 1997. Bus operations were hived-off to a fully owned subsidiary called Singapore Bus Services Limited, which was separately listed on the Singapore Exchange.

In November 2001, Singapore Bus Services Limited was renamed as SBS Transit Limited when the company formally became a multi-modal transport operator with the impending opening of the Sengkang LRT Line.

Operations

SBS Transit's primary business is providing public transport services in Singapore. Its more notable operations are the following.

Current bus fleet

SBS Transit currently operates 75% of the scheduled bus market share in Singapore with more than 265 bus services and has a total fleet of more than 3,000 buses. All but 95 buses are non air-conditioned. All the different bus models have a common lifespan of 17 years, except the Mercedes Benz O405 and Volvo B10M Mark III buses whose lifespan were extended to 19 years. The 100 non-air-conditioned buses will be retired in 2011. In the last 3 years, SBS Transit ordered 1,100 single-deck buses from Scania AB and 350 double-deck buses from Volvo as part of its fleet renewal programme. SBS Transit also placed an order for 300 Mercedes-Benz O530s and another 300 buses from Volvo in 2010. SBS Transit also evaluates wheelchair-accessible chassis offers from Volvo and Scania AB. The newest additions to the bus fleet is the both made in China King Long Higer KLQ6129G Hydrogen Fuel Cell "GreenLite" bus, the Sunlong SLK6121UF14H Hybrid buses, as well as the Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 Double Decker buses and the Mercedes Benz Citaro (O530) buses.

Bus routes

SBS Transit operates many different types of bus routes and bus services, taking up the majority of the pie of Singapore's duopoly bus system in almost all areas of Singapore, with the notable exception of the North and Northwest areas, where bus services are mainly run by its competitor, SMRT Corporation.

  • Trunk: Routes that ply between towns. These are the basic forms of SBS Transit bus services. Fares are distance-related and differential up to 8 fare bands.
  • Short working Trips (SWT): Routes that operate short haul trips between origin-destination pairs with high demand, such as the area near an MRT station. It operated a subset of the parent route and there can be more than one SWT per trunk route.
  • Feeder: Services that operate within a neighbourhood, connecting outlying areas to the town centre or bus interchange. (Loops around from an interchange, around one or more neighbourhoods or towns and then terminates at the starting interchange). As a name suggest, it is to feed the commuters to the trunk services or MRT services at the terminal/interchange. A flat fare, equivalent to the first fare band is charged per entry.
  • TownLink: Routes that consist of combined feeder services to provide links and improve connectivity between neighborhoods within the same town. (Similar to a feeder service except that, other than when stopping a 'session', the service will not terminate at the interchange but will re-run its route immediately after letting passengers alight, in essence, a true loop)
  • Express: Routes that stop at several nominated and sparsely located stops and generally run on expressways for faster travel between several towns. This is a basic-plus service charging higher fares.
  • Fast Forward: A modification of basic trunk routes, Fast Forwards are an innovation of SBS Transit, which provides faster travel between places where there is higher demand, by calling at fewer stops and skipping low demand areas. This is also a basic-plus services charging higher fares.
  • Premium: A single trip from the designated neighborhoods during the morning peak hours on weekdays to Shenton Way and Raffles Place via expressway. They were introduced following the liberalization in regulations for public operators providing such services. Fees are flat rated ($3.10 or $3.40 for ez-link card users depending on the distance travelled) and standing is prohibited on Premium Services.
  • Nite Owl: These are after-hour services on Fridays, Saturdays and eve of public holidays. There are only a handful of bus routes for this service and fees are $1.45 (ez-link) or $1.50 (cash) for intra-town commutes and $3.80 (ez-link) or $4 (cash) between CBD and HDB towns served.
  • Chinatown Direct: Introduced in 2005, these are routes that run from suburban towns to Chinatown via expressway. Such routes are very popular in the period before the Lunar New Year. A fare of $1.75 (ez-link) or $1.80 (cash) is charged per boarding ($0.95-$1.00 for child/concession card holders).
  • Parks: Services that run from major parks to the nearest bus interchange/terminal.
  • Stadium Direct: Services that run from the Singapore Indoor Stadium to major towns after major concerts or events being held there. The Stadium Direct services will be no longer be offered from 1 September 2010.

Mass Rapid Transit (MRT)

SBS Transit is the operator of the North East Line since 2003 and Downtown Line on 2013.

The North East Line is the third Mass Rapid Transit line in Singapore, and also the world's first fully underground and automated rapid transit line. The line is 20km long with 16 stations. The operating license was given to SBS Transit in order to foster competition with SMRT Corporation and to create multi-modal public transport companies, each specializing in their own district. The tender spans from 2003 to 2033.

As the name implies, the North East Line connects central Singapore to the north-eastern part of the island. Currently, transfers to the North South Line are provided at Dhoby Ghaut Station, East West Line at Outram Park Station and Circle Line at Serangoon Station , Dhoby Ghaut Station & HarbourFront Station . The rolling stock used is Alstom Metropolis.

The Downtown Line is the fifth Mass Rapid Transit line in Singapore. With 34 stations, the 42km-long line would be the world's longest fully underground and automated rapid transit line when completed in 2017. This is the first rail line put up for competitive tender under the new rail financing framework that LTA adopted to benefit commuters through the expansion of the Rapid Transit System (RTS) network while enabling the government to keep pace with growing ridership demand. The tender will span from 2017 to 2032.

Meanwhile, for the Downtown line, it connects residents staying in the North-western and Central-eastern to the new downtown. Transfers to this line from the North East Line is available at Chinatown and Little India stations, the North South Line at Newton Station and Bukit Panjang Station(Bukit Panjang LRT), the East West Line at Bugis and Tampines stations, the Circle Line at MacPherson, Bayfront, Promenade and Botanic Gardens stations. The rolling stock used is Bombardier MOVIA.
