History
On 24 November 2014, LTA announced an expansion of Sengkang Bus Interchange to accommodate new bus services being introduced under the Bus Service Enhancement Programme (BSEP), as the existing interchange did not have enough capacity to accommodate new bus services.
Covering 8,100 square metres, this new annexe would be located directly opposite the existing Sengkang Interchange, and would feature 12 additional parking bays, boarding and alighting facilities, concourse area, staff lounge, and a canteen. In contrast, Sengkang Bus Interchange had just 16 bus parking lots.
The construction tender (RD 285 – Expansion of Sengkang Bus Interchange) was awarded to W’ray Construction Pte Ltd for a fee of SGD 7,686,223.00. Originally planned to be operational by Q3 2015, construction only started in January 2016, and the interchange was completed in late 2016.
The new facility was called Compassvale Bus Interchange and was opened on 12 March 2017.
Compassvale Bus Interchange closed on 1 December 2024, in tandem with the opening of Buangkok Bus Interchange. However, as the NTWU Canteen at Sengkang Bus Interchange was still undergoing renovation as of December 2024, the NTWU Canteen at Compassvale Bus Interchange remains open to serve diners.
Interchange Layout
The interchange site was bordered by Compassvale Road, Sengkang East Way and Sengkang Square. Notably, this was adjacent to the old Sengkang Temporary Bus Interchange, which was demolished after the opening of Sengkang Bus Interchange in 2003.
The interchange featured a single alighting berth and 2 boarding berths with queue lines. Facilities at the interchange concourse include offices, a driver’s lounge, toilets, a canteen, and other ancillary rooms. The bus park contains 12 bus parking lots, along with motorcycle parking for staff.
The interchange was connected to Sengkang Bus Interchange and Sengkang MRT/LRT Station via an overhead bridge and pedestrian crossing across Sengkang Square.
Vehicles enter/exit Compassvale Bus Interchange via a left-in/left-out intersection with Compassvale Road (northbound). Another vehicle exit leads to Sengkang Square (southbound).

They should still keep this int sengkang is over crowded. Even During non peak hours buses struggle for a parking lot..
Sure will be replaced by Buangkok ITH, 83, 110, 965, 156 amend there and 374 go back to Sengkang.
110, 114, and 156 will be calling at Buangkok, but 83 and 965 are staying at Sengkang. 374 will be amended to Sengkang, so Compassvale will close. I saw LTA’s official post.
your right except that 114 is going to buangkok instead of 83 & 965
Uhhh there’s only 2 bus services it’s slightly more useful than Tampines Concourse Bus Interchange bc TCBI only has 1 bus (39) why does this exist
prob due to buses shifting out when some buses no longer ply the interchange (eg bus 22 used to ply Tampines Int but was shortened to Eunos, hence free up 1 slot for Tamp Int) another possibility is due to low usage. these interchanges will usually cater to bus services which can’t fit the existing int
