About SBS Transit
 |
SBS Transit is
one of the leading bus operators
in this part of the world and started
rail operations in 2003. It was
formed in 1973 through the merger
of three private bus companies and
listed on the then Stock Exchange
of Singapore (SES), now known as
SGX, in 1978 as Singapore Bus Service
(1978) Limited.
In November 1997, Singapore Bus
Service (1978) Limited was renamed
DelGro Corporation Limited (Now
ComfortDelGro Corporation Limited)
and the subsidiary Singapore Bus
Services Limited, was separately
listed on the SGX. Singapore Bus
Services Limited changed its name
to SBS Transit Ltd in November 2001
to reflect its bi-modal status as
a bus and rail operator.
SBS Transit aims to provide world-class public transport which is safe, comfortable, affordable, reliable and friendly. Today, SBS Transit operates 250 bus services and has a fleet of close to 3,000 buses. The buses serve 16 interchanges and more than 3,500 bus stops. In 2003, SBS Transit started its light rail operations in Sengkang and also started operating its Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system, the North East Line (NEL) in the same year. In 2005, SBS Transit began operating the Punggol LRT System.
