Nine private bus operators have bid to run nine City Direct bus services.

The nine routes, which will give heartland commuters an extra option in and out of the city, will be rolled out from next January. It will serve residents in Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Bukit Batok, Eunos, Hougang, Jurong East, Sembawang, Sengkang and West Coast.

ComfortDelGro Bus on Monday launched City Service 651, which starts from Jurong West Avenue 3 before taking the Ayer Rajah Expressway on the way to Marina Boulevard - a journey which takes about an hour.

Soon, the LTA will also call for tenders for private operators to run short feeder services during peak hours in estates.
