This is a list of bus interchanges or terminals that are part of Singapore's bus system (not including bus stops). Bus terminals and interchanges serve as important nodes in the transport system as bus services start and end at these stations. Over time, there are several bus stations that have been shut down due to geographical retention or the introduction of new town centres, or creation of consolidated transportation hubs. The list of former bus stations are found here.
Overview
In the 1970s with the formation of Singapore Bus Service (SBS), the terminals of private companies were inherited by SBS. Many of these terminals were makeshift constructions without adequate facilities. The SBS embarked on a terminal improvement programme to build facilities such more parking space, timekeeper's booths, rest areas for bus crew members, proper platforms with adequate shelter, toilets and food facilities.[1][2] It also planned to construct new depots and terminals, so as to eliminate parking of buses in residential areas. Makeshift and roadside terminals were to be phased out.[3][4]
The development of bus terminals was closely linked to town planning in Singapore. Densely inhabited new towns were built along major roads and a bus terminal was allocated at a suitable point inside each of them. Feeder services were used to carry passengers within the new towns to the bus terminal. With the opening of the MRT system in 1987, bus terminals were sited close to subway stations so as to integrate the subway and bus services.[5] The 1980s also saw the building of larger bus interchanges in new towns, such as the one at Ang Mo Kio which was twice the size of the existing terminal it replaced.[6]
List of bus interchanges
There are currently 30 bus interchanges in Singapore, serviced by four bus operators.
To improve seamless connectivity with the rail network, selected interchanges in housing estates are slowly being rebuilt as Integrated Transport Hubs. More have been planned for future housing estates, such as Woodleigh, Buangkok & Punggol Coast.
Only bus interchanges that are currently in operation are listed. A list of former bus interchanges can be found here.
Compassvale Bus Interchange is a bus interchange located along Compassvale Road in Sengkang, Singapore. First announced by the Land Transport Authority in November 2014 as an expansion for the adjacent Sengkang Bus Interchange,[27] the interchange commenced operations on 12 March 2017 and will be closed on 1 December 2024 with the opening of Buangkok Bus Interchange.[28] It is an interim bus interchange for Sengkang.[15]
Tampines Concourse Bus Interchange
Tampines Concourse Bus Interchange is a bus interchange located along Tampines Concourse in Tampines. First announced by the Land Transport Authority in November 2014, as an expansion of the Tampines Bus Interchange,[29] it commenced operations on 18 December 2016.[20]
List of bus terminals
Bus terminals are distinct from bus interchanges in Singapore. While bus interchanges are often air-conditioned and integrated with other connecting MRT lines, with some also part of Integrated Transport Hubs, bus terminals are a lot more bare-bones with only a small number of bus berths available. Additionally, not all bus terminals allow for boarding or alighting at the terminal.
Only bus terminals that are currently in operation are listed. A list of former bus terminals can be found here.
Previously, the Buona Vista area was served by the Commonwealth Avenue Terminal, located at the intersection of Commonwealth Avenue and North Buona Vista Road.[32] Due to the construction of the Commonwealth Avenue extension in the 1970s, a portion of the terminal was affected, resulting in the creation of a temporary terminal at Holland Drive.[33] The temporary Holland Drive terminal (located next to the City Shuttle Service terminus), started operating in November 1975 for certain bus routes.[34] In 1982, SBS had to vacate the Commonwealth Avenue terminal and move to a temporary terminal called North Buona Vista Terminal.[35] By the late 1980s, the present Buona Vista terminal had become operational, and bus services to the nearby Ayer Rajah Industrial Estate were introduced.
Changi Airport Passenger Terminal Building Bus Terminal
Unlike typical terminals in Singapore, bus services do not stop for extended periods, due to the lack of bus parking facilities. Buses looping at Changi Airport first stop at PTB3 terminal, before proceeding to PTB1 and PTB2.
Due to heightened security concerns, buses can only enter the basements after auxiliary police officers have physically boarded and inspected them. Bus services that serve this terminal have only single-deck and articulated (bendy) buses in their fleets, due to height restrictions, even though these services are high-demand.
Only some bus services stop at Terminal 4 and a dedicated bus stand has been built. Bus 24, 34, 36 and 110 were amended here.

Changi Village Bus Terminal was opened in 1975 to take over operations from the former smaller road side Changi Point Bus Terminal.[citation needed] It was built over the site of the former Changi Cinema. The bus terminal comprises a small boarding and alighting berth area for bus services that is directly adjacent to the hawker centre. The bus terminal continues to be operated by SBS Transit despite its close location to the areas where Go-Ahead Group bus services operate.
Ghim Moh Bus Terminal
Ghim Moh Bus Terminal is a bus terminal located in Ghim Moh along Ghim Moh Road with a small bus park behind the terminal. The terminal is now one of the few surviving terminals of the 1970s era in which it was common for terminals to be built along the roadside with only a small booth for bus captains to report to when completing their duties. The terminal allows boarding and alighting at a bus stop along the road and serves the residents of Buona Vista and Ghim Moh as well as those in the Mount Sinai housing estate.
Before the consolidation of bus routes to operate to and from major interchanges, roadside terminals were very common, especially in the seventies. Ghim Moh Bus Terminal was no exception, and opened in the late 1970s to complement the building of Ghim Moh Estate. The terminal was situated adjacent to Block 9 and 10. In 1986, the bus terminal was relocated to a bus bay outside Block 9 along Ghim Moh Road when the existing bus terminal was converted into a car park. One of the car park entrances was sealed off and functions as a turnabout point for buses entering from Commonwealth Avenue West. An alighting bay was also near the turnabout point, opposite a refuse collection point.
In 2006, the HDB announced SERS redevelopment scheme for Blocks 9, 9A, 10, 11, 12 and 12A.[37] The blocks were slated to be demolished and then redeveloped. In early 2012, the blocks of flats were vacated and were demolished in 2013.[38]
The terminal was located near Oasis@Sakra, the amenity centre on the island. Initially, JTC provided shuttle bus services to and from Jurong East MRT station.[39] Later SBS started public bus services to Jurong Island. In 2002, two Jurong Island services were notable for being the first routes to use CNG powered buses in Singapore.[40] However, SBS later stopped operating these services.[41] Since then transportation to the island has been provided by private companies.
Kent Ridge Bus Terminal
Kent Ridge Bus Terminal is a bus station located at Kent Ridge, in western Singapore. This bus terminal sits at a corner of the National University of Singapore (NUS) Kent Ridge campus, at the corner of Eusoff Hall and mainly serves as a transfer point for NUS students to other parts of Singapore. The terminal primarily serves as a terminating point for bus routes serving the NUS campus and residential developments around Pasir Panjang and West Coast. Apart from regular public bus services, NUS Internal Shuttle Bus routes also call at the terminal.[42]
Opened on 16 August 1981, the terminal has a single vehicular concourse area, with separate entrance and exit leading to Clementi Road. The terminal has a sheltered bus stop that functions as both a boarding and alighting point, and a bus park in the middle of the terminal for the layover of buses. A terminal building contains an office and a driver’s lounge. As a layover point for several NUS ISB routes, an electronic driver’s log-in kiosk for ComfortDelGro Bus (the NUS shuttle bus operator) is also located at the terminal.
The terminal was originally a fringe car park. In 1975, it was planned as a Park and Ride terminal. Under the Park and Ride scheme, drivers could park their cars and then ride the City Shuttle Service to the Central Business District. The services ran daily (except Sunday) during peak hours for 50 cents a ride. However, the Park and Ride Scheme did not prove to be very popular. Due to low ridership, the terminal was converted to a public bus terminal in 1988 and handed over to SBS Transit and Trans-Island Bus Services. In 1998, Crawford Street Bus Terminal was shut down and its bus services were relocated to this terminal.[44]
In November 2015, it was reported that the terminal housed some of the last DAF buses which were still in use by SMRT Buses, which is now being replaced by newer buses.[45]
In June 2015, the Marina Centre Bus Terminal Expansion opened together with a public coach park. There are 13 lots for SBS Transit and Tower Transit buses and 4 marked as 'Reserved.' As of June 2015, there are bus parking lots at the roadside of the terminal occupied by SMRT buses.
Saint Michael's Bus Terminal, (location:1°19′34″N103°51′19″E / 1.32611°N 103.85528°E / 1.32611; 103.85528
) abbreviated to St. Michael's Ter, is a bus terminal located in the subzone of Balestier in Novena, Singapore. Despite its name, the terminal is not located near St. Michael's Road (because St Michael Road and the estate used to be connected to this place prior to the CTE's construction), but is bordered by Whampoa Road, Kim Keat Road, Whampoa Park Connector and the Sungei Whampoa, within the Whampoa estate.
Opened on 26 May 1985,[47] the terminal has a single combined entrance and exit located along Whampoa Road. All berths are end-on, and are used for both loading/unloading passengers and parking of buses.
History
In the 1970s, Saint Michael's Bus Terminal used to house 2 bus services from Singapore Shuttle Bus (Pte) Ltd, which have since been withdrawn in 2003, upon SBS Transit taking over the terminal.[48]
In 2011, the terminal was renovated and refurbished to provide full wheelchair accessibility for wheelchair-bound passengers. This included the installation of wheelchair ramps for every bus berth. In 2014, addition and alteration works were carried out under LTA Contract VT353,[49] which was awarded to TQC Builders Pte. Ltd. in April 2013. The contract included to installation and construction of a new annexe at the terminal, with public restrooms, a driver's lounge and ancillary rooms, built on the space once occupied by the excess bus parking spaces; new rain shades, seating and wall mounted fans were also installed, with a new coat of paint applied to the structure.[50]
Sims Place Bus Terminal
Sims Place Bus Terminal (location: 1°18′58″N103°52′46″E / 1.315973°N 103.879341°E / 1.315973; 103.879341) is a roadside bus terminal located in Geylang, Singapore. The bus terminal is situated near a market and several flats. The nearest MRT station is Aljunied. The terminal is one of the few surviving terminals of the 1970s, in which it was common for terminals to be built along the roadside with only a small booth for bus captains to report to when completing their duties.
Upper East Coast Bus Terminal
Upper East Coast Terminal (location: 1°19′4″N103°57′9″E / 1.31778°N 103.95250°E / 1.31778; 103.95250) is a bus terminal located along Upper East Coast Road, in the Bedok planning area, Singapore. The terminal was opened in 2001 after the closure of the Marine Parade Bus Terminal. In April 2017, Services 25 & 55 were extended here from Bedok and Siglap Road respectively after the terminal expansion was completed in 2017, along with the expansion of Hougang and Punggol Bus interchanges, in order to accommodate new services under the Bus Service Enhancement Programme (BSEP).[51]
Changi Business Park Bus Terminal
Changi Business Park Bus Terminal is a bus terminal located along Changi South Avenue 1, near the SUTD campus and intersection with Changi Business Park Central 2. The terminal serves as a terminating point for bus routes serving the Changi Business Park area, and does not offer any rail connections. It opened on 20 December 2015, serving as the terminal for services 47 and 118.
There are 12 end-on lots for alighting/boarding served by 2 berths, with 2 more unused currently.
