They will provide expanded coverage within the area.

According to the Land Transport Authority, commuters to Tuas are set to have more convenient travel options with the introduction of two new bus services and four amended bus services to complement the new Tuas West Extension (TWE) which will begin operations on 18 June 2017. The new bus services 247 and 248 will link Tuas South with the new TWE stations and provide an expanded coverage within the area.
