Translated friom Shin Min Daily News, 3rd June 2004:

"Causeway Link will introduce bus services plying from Johor Bahru Larkin Terminal to Queen Street and Jurong in August this year.

These services were introduced due to popular demand by commuters.

One service will ply from Johor Bahru to Queen Street via the causeway while the other will ply to Jurong via the Second Link. It was mentioned that the 2 new services had originally been planned for introduction late last year but met with some delays."

as was reported earlier, the company had lost a lot of money as they have all the booths ready & they still have to pay for the instalment for the new buses yet they could not get to use the buses at all. there was not enough demand to deploy them on Kranji MRT-Kota Raya-Larkin service. the very same report had indicated that the Jurong service would end at Chinese Garden MRT Station. fares and operating details are not known.

They ALREADY have too many buses.

So unlikely they will buy new buses.

Possibly so, so that they don't lose out.
