Which buses have long expressway routes?

• MingFreeman

  Those which go past several expressway exits before exiting one.
  
  The ones which enter and exit at the very next exit are not counted (e.g 8,26, 31, 45 etc are not counted)
  
  For those which travel for a significant distance, those I can recall are 30, 97, 857, 190, 197,198, 154, 52, 59, 985, 168 (this service travels a hell lot of distance on SLE/TPE ), 23, 36, 48
  
  Any more?

  858(to airport) enters at lentor(SLE), exit and enter at jln kayu(TPE), then onto PIE then onto ECP(end of e'way) then vice versa for the way back to wdl

  CTE tunnels have a height limit of 4.5m which is the same as all arterial roads in Singapore, therefore there are no issues with ADDs using the tunnels. In fact, former services 501 & 502 ply the CTE tunnels using double deckers, and so does the current Premium Service 534 from Yio Chu Kang. Also, several buses use the CTE for their off-service routes, such as Service 147, and those are double-deckers as well.

  KJE serves a part of singapore which is one of the most inaccessible and least "popular" and ulu, like Woodlands Road, Sungei Tengah.
