Compassvale Bus Interchange

Compassvale Bus Interchange is a bus interchange located at Sengkang Town Centre, opposite Sengkang Bus Interchange. Opened on 12 March 2017, it is functionally an extension of Sengkang Bus Interchange, allowing for more bus services to be introduced in Sengkang.

Compassvale Bus Interchange will cease operations on 1 December 2024. The last day of operations is Saturday, 30 November 2024.

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 opened on 12 March 2017.

Interchange Layout

The interchange site is bordered by Compassvale Road, Sengkang East Way and Sengkang Square. Notably, this is adjacent to the old Sengkang Temporary Bus Interchange, which was demolished after the opening of Sengkang Bus Interchange in 2003.

The interchange features 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 is 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).

Bus Services

Compassvale Bus Interchange commenced operations on 12 March 2017 with the introduction of Service 374 (Compassvale ↺ Fernvale Road (Loop)). The second bus route, Service 110 (Compassvale ↺ Changi Airport (Loop)), was introduced on 22 October 2017.

Closure

The interchange is slated close on 1 December 2024, in tandem with the opening of Buangkok Bus Interchange. Service 110 will be amended to Buangkok Bus Interchange, while Service 374 will be amended to Sengkang Bus Interchange.
