ComfortDelGro Corporation (SGX: C52) is a multi-national land transport company listed on the Singapore Exchange operating 46,010 vehicles in seven countries. It was formed in March 2003 when Singaporean land transport companies Comfort Group and DelGro Corporation merged.
ComfortDelGro owns 75% of SBS Transit, which is listed separately on the Singapore Exchange. SBS Transit is a leading bus and rail operator in Singapore. Every day, it carries more than three million passengers on its extensive bus and rail network.
SBS Transit operates about 250 bus services with a fleet of more than 3,200 buses. The buses serve 17 interchanges and more than 3,500 bus stops island-wide. Additionally, SBS Transit operates the North East Line, which is the world's first fully automated, underground heavy rail system that connects Punggol to HarbourFront, as well as the Sengkang and Punggol LRT Line.
SBS Transit also operates the Downtown Line. When fully completed, this 42 km line with 34 stations will be the longest underground line in Singapore. The first stage of the Downtown Line commenced passenger service on 22 December 2013. The second and third stages will be ready in 2015 and 2017 respectively.
ComfortDelGro Bus as a private-bus charter subsidiary is the largest private land-transport company in Singapore, which offers a wide range of bus charter services, including employee and school bus services. It also offers overland bus services to West Malaysia, and operates premium bus services, complementing those offered by SBS Transit.

The ComfortDelGro taxi booking system wirelessly connects the taxis using the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) technology via the in-vehicle Mobile Data Terminals (MDTs). Today, its Customer Contact Centre caters to over 32 million taxi bookings annually. Comfort and CityCab also operate ComfortDleGro LimoCabs and MaxiCabs in its fleet.
