From Oct 28, bus lanes will be implemented at three locations along Bukit Panjang Road and Upper Bukit Timah Road.

These normal bus lanes will operate during peak hours from 7.30 am to 9.30 am and from 5 pm to 8 pm on weekdays.

The continuous expansion of the bus lane scheme has resulted in "bus speed improvements by some 10 to 12 per cent at some stretches," said LTA Chief Executive, Mr Yam Ah Mee.

There is now a total of 22km of full-day bus lanes and 144km of normal bus lanes since the expansion began in June this year.
