Special arrangements during severe weather[]
Strong Winds (if Desire Bridge is closed)[]
Main article: Special traffic arrangements at strong wind
Route 141 will be split into two routes, similar to its sister, route 148. Route 141 will terminate at Western Hospital, while route S141 will not service Northern Interchange, Western Harbour Interchange and all stops on Dove Island and Hospital Island. Buses on route S141 will use the Central-Western Bridge to cross between Zones 1 and 4.
Passengers on route 141 heading to Containers Island will need to transfer to S141 and vice versa for S141 passengers to Dove and Hospital Islands.
Did you know?[]
- Due to a coding error at Sunshine Express, SE buses on this route displayed route 147, even though it is incorrect. REBC buses will display the correct number. Stops will remain unchanged for Sunshine Express buses on this route. The issue has been fixed as of July 2020.
- It is possible that 147 might be the original route number proposed for this route, as one version of the Sunshine Islands Official Faretable also displayed the number 147 instead of 141.
- When Sunshine Express operated this route at route 141 era, there were some errors in the passenger information system data for the Container's Island direction of this route: Dove Fire Station stop is missing, and the stop name for Eddie City would appear as Addi City instead. These situations occurred in SE buses only and the problem was fixed in V2.0.
