This is a list of bus interchanges, terminals and depots 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, 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 as more parking space, timekeeper's booths, rest areas for bus crew members, proper platforms with adequate shelter, toilets and food facilities. 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.
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. 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.
List of bus interchanges
There are currently 32 bus interchanges in Singapore, served by four bus operators, with three more under construction and seven more under planning. Lor 1 Geylang Bus Terminal and Upper East Coast Bus Terminal were replaced by Kallang Bus Interchange (Rebuilt as Integrated Transport Hub) and Bedok South Bus Interchange. To improve seamless connectivity with the rail network, selected interchanges in housing estates are slowly being rebuilt as Integrated Transport Hubs (ITHs). + Bus interchange Bus package (anchor) Planning area Number of routes Number of berths First opened Latest reopening Operator ConnectionsBishanBishan–Toa PayohBishan106 (total)4 (boarding)2 (alighting)SBS TransitBishanBukit BatokBulimBukit Batok1423 (total)18 (end-on)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)Tower Transit SingaporeBukit BatokBukit MerahBukit MerahBukit Merah9 (total)6 (boarding)3 (alighting)SBS TransitChoa Chu KangChoa Chu Kang–Bukit PanjangChoa Chu Kang159 (total)5 (boarding)4 (alighting)SMRT BusesChoa Chu KangEunosSerangoon–EunosGeylang96 (total)4 (boarding)2 (alighting)SBS TransitEunosHarbourFrontBukit MerahBukit Merah1012 (end-on)HarbourFrontHougang CentralSengkang–HougangHougang1910 (total)6 (boarding)4 (alighting)HougangJurong EastBulimJurong East1711 (total)7 (boarding)4 (alighting)Tower Transit SingaporeJurong EastJurong Town Hall88 (total)5 (boarding)3 (alighting)PunggolLoyangPunggol187 (total)5 (boarding)2 (alighting)Go-Ahead SingaporePunggolSembawangSembawang–YishunSembawang75 (total)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)Tower Transit SingaporeSembawangTampinesTampinesTampines2317 (total)3 (end-on)8 (boarding)6 (alighting)Go-Ahead Singapore–TampinesTampines Concourse13 (total)2 (boarding)1 (alighting)Tampines North55 (total)4 (boarding)1 (alighting)Tampines NorthTengahBulimTengah69 (total)6 (boarding)3 (alighting)Tower Transit SingaporeWoodlands TemporaryWoodlandsWoodlands55 (total)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)SMRT BusesWoodlandsYio Chu KangSeletarAng Mo Kio96 (total)4 (boarding)2 (alighting)SBS TransitYio Chu KangIntegrated Transport HubAng Mo KioSeletarAng Mo Kio169 (total)6 (boarding)3 (alighting)SBS TransitAng Mo KioBedokBedokBedok2715 (total)10 (boarding)5 (alighting)BedokBoon LayJurong WestJurong West2721 (total)11 (end-on)6 (boarding)4 (alighting)SMRT BusesBoon LayBuangkokSengkang–HougangBuangkok37 (end-on)SBS TransitBuangkokBukit PanjangChoa Chu Kang–Bukit PanjangBukit Panjang115 (total)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)SMRT Buses–Bukit PanjangClementiClementiClementi148 (total)5 (boarding)3 (alighting)SBS TransitClementiJoo KoonJurong WestPioneer85 (total)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)SMRT BusesJoo KoonPasir RisLoyangPasir Ris1613 (total)8 (end-on)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)Go-Ahead SingaporePasir RisPunggol CoastPunggol47 (total)4 (boarding)3 (alighting)Punggol Coast Teck LeeSengkangSengkang–HougangSengkang97 (total)4 (boarding)3 (alighting)SBS TransitSengkangSerangoonSerangoon–EunosSerangoon95 (total)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)Serangoon Toa PayohBishan–Toa PayohToa Payoh2121 (total)14 (end-on)4 (boarding)3 (alighting) Toa PayohWoodlandsWoodlandsWoodlands2318 (total)14 (boarding)4 (alighting)SMRT BusesWoodlandsWoodleighSerangoon–EunosBidadari35 (total)3 (boarding)2 (alighting)SBS TransitWoodleighYishunSembawang–YishunYishun2412 (total)8 (boarding)4 (alighting)Tower Transit SingaporeYishun

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. +Bus terminalsBus packagesPlanning areaRoutesBerthsOpeningOperatorConnectionsRemarksBeach Station Bus TerminalSouthern Islands41 (SBS Transit)3 (Sentosa Development Corp)13 (End-on)First opened: 15 January 2007Served by public buses: 30 July 2017Sentosa Development CorpSentosa ExpressBuona Vista Bus TerminalClementi (anchor)Bukit Merah (tenant)Queenstown87 (SBS Transit)1 (SMRT Buses)Old: 1970sReconfigured: 2012SBS TransitNo boarding or alighting allowedChangi Airport Terminal 2 Bus TerminalLoyangChangi83 (SBS Transit)1 (Tower Transit)3 (Go-Ahead)1 (SMRT Buses)5 (Boarding/alighting)1 June 1991 Changi AirportChangi Business Park Bus TerminalTampines (anchor)Loyang (tenant)212 (End-on)20 December 2015Go-Ahead SingaporeChangi Village Bus TerminalSerangoon–Eunos (anchor)Loyang (tenant)42 (SBS Transit)2 (Go-Ahead)1 (Boarding/alighting)1975SBS TransitGali Batu Bus TerminalChoa Chu Kang–Bukit PanjangWoodlands32 (SMRT Buses)1 (Tower Transit) 23 January 2021SMRT BusesNo boarding or alighting allowedGhim Moh Bus TerminalClementiQueenstown31 (Boarding/alighting)Old: late 1970sRelocated: 1986SBS TransitKampong Bahru Bus TerminalBukit MerahBukit Merah95 (SBS Transit)1 (SMRT Buses)3 (Go-Ahead)4 (Boarding)2 (Alighting)10 March 2018Kent Ridge Bus TerminalClementiQueenstown105 (SBS Transit)1 (Go-Ahead Singapore)4 (NUS Internal Shuttle)1 (Boarding/alighting)16 August 1981Lorong 1 Geylang Bus TerminalSembawang–Yishun (anchor)Serangoon–Eunos (tenant)Kallang84 (SBS Transit)2 (SMRT Buses)2 (Tower Transit)1 (Boarding)1 (Alighting)Old: May 1971Existing: 2013Tower Transit Singapore KallangMarina Centre Bus TerminalBukit MerahDowntown Core83 (SBS Transit)3 (Tower Transit)2 (SMRT Buses)Old: 30 November 1986Extension built: June 2015Existing: 24 February 2021SBS TransitNo boarding or alighting allowedQueen Street Bus TerminalRochor11 (Boarding)1 (Alighting)Old: 1940s–1950sExisting: 13 October 1985Also serves Causeway Link and Singapore–Johore ExpressResorts World Sentosa Bus TerminalSouthern Islands1 (SBS Transit)Other bus services1 (Boarding/alighting)21 November 2015Sentosa Development CorpSentosa ExpressRumah Tinggi Bus TerminalBukit Merah11 (Boarding)1 (Alighting)25 October 2025SBS TransitSt Michael's Bus TerminalBishan–Toa PayohNovena76 (SBS Transit)1 (Go-Ahead Singapore)13 (End-on)1980sShenton Way Bus TerminalBukit MerahDowntown Core97 (SBS Transit)1 (SMRT Buses)1 (Tower Transit)1 (Boarding)Old: 1970sFirst relocation: 20 June 1987Second relocation: 26 April 2010Existing: 25 June 2017 Prince Edward RoadNo alighting allowedSims Place Bus TerminalSerangoon–EunosAljunied31 (Boarding/alighting)13 December 1976Tuas Bus TerminalJurong WestTuas51 (Boarding)1 (Alighting)Old: 2 January 1998Existing: 7 October 2017SMRT Buses Tuas LinkUpper East Coast Terminal BedokBedok86 (SBS Transit)1 (Go-Ahead Singapore)1 (Tower Transit)2 (Boarding)2 (Alighting)9 December 2001SBS Transit
Buona Vista Bus Terminal Buona Vista Bus Terminal (location:) is located at Holland Drive in Buona Vista estate in Queenstown. The terminal is located adjacent to Buona Vista Community Centre, and close to Buona Vista MRT station. Unlike most other terminals, it does not allow passenger boarding or alighting on the site itself.
Previously, the Buona Vista area was served by the Commonwealth Avenue Terminal, located at the intersection of Commonwealth Avenue and North Buona Vista Road. 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. The temporary Holland Drive terminal (located next to the City Shuttle Service terminus), started operating in November 1975 for certain bus routes. In 1982, SBS had to vacate the Commonwealth Avenue terminal and move to a temporary terminal named North Buona Vista Terminal. By the late 1980s, the present Buona Vista terminal had become operational, and bus services to the nearby Ayer Rajah Industrial Estate were introduced.
Jurong Island Bus Terminal Jurong Island Bus Terminal (location: ) is located at the southwest of Jurong Island, serving the only form of public transport on the offshore island off the southwest coast of the main island.
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. 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. However, SBS later stopped operating these services. Since then, transportation to the island has been provided by private companies.
Kent Ridge Bus Terminal Kent Ridge Bus Terminal is located in the Kent Ridge subzone of Queenstown. It sits at a corner of Eusoff Hall of the National University of Singapore (NUS), 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.
