History
On 22 February 2015, the #20 Line service was cut to run between Security Square Mall and City Hall, with short turns at Edmonsdon Village[2] as part of the first phase implementation of the Bus Network Improvement Project. Service on the eastern portion of the route was picked up by the new Route 31 for trips to Dundalk and by new Route 26 with expanded service to Dundalk Marine Terminal and the Amazon Warehouse
