Fleet
Due to the insufficient demand, only single deckers such as Volvo B7RLE/MCV Evolution were used on service 172. The New Bus for Singapore (NB4S) was tested on 13 January 2014 and Alexander Dennis Enviro500s were also tested on 20 December 2014, both were along the cemetery stretch of Choa Chu Kang Road (all the way to 26km). The Lorong Danau remains the only forested and military training area that has low-hanging branches, together with Ama Keng Road, Jalan Murai and Murai Farmway.
