Go-Ahead Singapore

On 15 April 2015, the Land Transport Authority called for tenders to operate 25 routes based at Changi Airport Bus Terminal, Changi Village Bus Terminal, Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, and Punggol Bus Interchange out of Loyang Bus Depot as part of its new Bus Contracting Model.^[2] Busways, Go-Ahead Group, Keolis, RATP Dev Transdev Asia, SBS Transit, SMRT Buses, Tian Tan Shipping/Kumho Buslines and Woodlands Transport lodged bids.^[3]

On 23 November 2015, the Land Transport Authority awarded Go-Ahead Singapore the contract with operations to commence in September 2016. The contract will run for five years with a two years extension if it meets LTA's requirements. ^[4][5][6] On 11 December 2015, the Land Transport Authority handed over Loyang Bus Depot to Go-Ahead Singapore to allow it to be fitted out.^[7] On 19 June 2016, the Loyang Bus Depot was officially opened by MP for Pasir Ris-Punggol Group Representation Constituency, Zainal Sapari and the group chief executive of the Go-Ahead Group David Brown. Loyang Bus Depot Carnival was also held on the same day to allow the public to tour the depot and also learn more about Go-Ahead Singapore.^[8]

Go-Ahead Singapore commenced its operations on 4 September 2016, and took over services from SBS Transit that day and also on 18 September. On 21 September, Go-Ahead Singapore found itself short of staff less than three weeks after launching its services. A total of 30 SBS Transit drivers were deployed at Loyang Bus Depot to operate services 358 and 359, while SMRT Buses sent 10 drivers to help the new public bus operator operate service 85. Tower Transit Singapore was also engaged to supply a staff bus service for Go-Ahead employees at Loyang Bus Depot.^[9] On 30 November that year, Go-Ahead Singapore's managing director Nigel Wood left due to "personal reasons". He has since resumed his position with Go-Ahead London as its general manager.^[10]

On 19 September 2025, LTA announced that Go-Ahead Singapore had won the bid to operate 27 bus services under the Tampines Bus Package starting from 5 July 2026.^[11][12]

Express feeder bus service also introduced the first bus service 459 operated by Loyang Bus Package on 27 April 2026. Existing bus service 454 and 460 under Tampines Bus Package were operated by Go-Ahead Singapore on 5 July 2026, which previously operated by SBS Transit.

Go-Ahead Singapore commenced operations of 24 services in two tranches. 13 bus services commenced services on 4 September 2016, while another 11 has started on 18th of that month. All services were previously operated by SBS Transit.^[13][14] Expansion therefore followed after the handover, but the operator only allows trunk, feeder, Express and City Direct services. Go-Ahead did not take over NiteOwl 4N, NiteOwl 6N and NightRider NR7 from the former operators, SBS Transit and SMRT Buses.
