Serangoon Bus Interchange is an air-conditioned bus interchange located at Serangoon Central, serving residential areas around Serangoon, Kovan and Serangoon Garden.
History
In November 1984, it was announced that Serangoon will have a new bus interchange to serve the new residential estates, replacing the old bus terminal at Serangoon Garden.[1] During construction, a temporary bus terminal along Serangoon Avenue 3 was established. The bus interchange, located between Serangoon Central and Serangoon Avenue 2, opened on 13 March 1988.[2] The compound was located under a multi-storey carpark, with end-on berths on the eastern side and sawtooth berths on the western side. Access to the interchange was located along Serangoon Central.
When Nex shopping mall opened on 25 November 2010, the old bus interchange continued to operate due to congestion at Serangoon Avenue 2, with shoppers facing shortage of carparking and large crowds in the shopping mall.
Relocation
On 3 September 2011, the interchange was relocated to a new air-conditioned facility along Serangoon Avenue 2 integrated with Nex and Serangoon MRT station,[3] making it the fifth bus interchange to be air conditioned. The new facility was the first to have glass walls instead of cement walls facing the bus bays, allowing commuters to be aware of the departure of buses, which was not present in the earlier air conditioned bus interchanges. Due to space constraints, Bus Services 81 and 82 no longer terminated at the interchange and were amended to loop at Serangoon Central instead.[3]
Bus contracting model
Under the bus contracting model, all bus services operating from Serangoon Bus Interchange were divided into two bus packages, operated by the anchor operator, SBS Transit Ltd.
