Pasir Ris Integrated Transport Hub (ITH) is an air-conditioned bus interchange located at Pasir Ris Town Centre, located inside the Pasir Ris 8 mixed-use development and is integrated with the Pasir Ris Mall.
Apart from housing a bus interchange, the mixed-use development comprises a retail mall, condominium, town plaza, polyclinic and childcare facilities.
Currently, bus services operate out of Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, which was reconfigured on 3 July 2021 to facilitate the construction of the mixed-use development. Pasir Ris Mall had its soft opening on 12 June 2024.
Pasir Ris Integrated Transport Hub will open on 27 April 2025.

The Interchange:
Plans for an ITH at Pasir Ris Central were initially surfaced in URA’s Draft Master Plan 2013. In 2017, the HDB-led Remaking Our Heartland initiative announced renewal plans for the town, including the construction of a mixed-use development on the west side of the existing Pasir Ris MRT station, which would include an ITH to replace the existing Pasir Ris Bus Interchange.
The site was tendered out via GLS in late 2018, and awarded by HDB in March 2019. The development, now called Pasir Ris 8, comprises a two-storey retail mall (Pasir Ris Mall), a 487-unit condominium with 7 blocks (Pasir Ris 8), along with a town plaza, bus interchange, polyclinic, and childcare facilities.
The interchange site is bordered by Pasir Ris Drive 3 to the north; Pasir Ris Drive 8 to the west; Pasir Ris EWL station to the east; and Pasir Ris Central to the south.
Based on available diagrams, vehicle ingress/egress routes at Pasir Ris ITH are via a signalised junction along Pasir Ris Drive 3, with backup access along Pasir Ris Drive 8. A dedicated MINDEF bus pick-up and drop-off (PUDO) point will be built north of the existing EWL station, beneath the rail viaducts.
The access route for most commuters would be via a through-block link connecting Pasir Ris ITH with Pasir Ris MRT Exit B (EWL). An underground link will also be built at Basement 2, connecting to the underground CRL station.
Originally targeted for completion in 2028 (as per LTA 2021 Press Release), the new Pasir Ris ITH will take over the existing Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, which sits on land earmarked for future development. The future Cross Island Line (Phase 1, Aviation Park–Bright Hill) is projected to open in 2030, with a further extension to Punggol due to open in 2032.
At the official launch of Pasir Ris Mall on 22 July 2024, the revised opening year for Pasir Ris ITH was announced to be in 2025, 3 years earlier than the initial estimated completion year of “around 2028” provided by LTA back in Jun 2021.
The interchange would open “in the coming months” as of March 2025, as mentioned by Transport Minister Mr Chee Hong Tat during the Committee of Supply Debate 2025. The interchange will open on 27 April 2025.

There were plans to outfit Pasir Ris ITH with electric bus charging infrastructure under Contract BD401 to support new electric buses procured in March 2023, which called for chargers to be installed at bus depots and ITHs. However, the tender concluded with no ITHs selected for charger installation.

Enquired Land Transport Authority Quality Service Manager [ 1800-2765751 ] today 2025-04-07 02:11 PM about the re-opening of the Pasir Ris MRT Station West Entrance/Exit which was closed due to the construction of the Pasir Ris Mall. Appreciate the LTA coordination on the re-opening of the Pasir Ris MRT Station West Entrance/Exit which is the nearest direct access route to the Pasir Ris Mall and the new Pasir Ris Bus Interchange.
The relocation of Pasir Ris Bus Interchange into the shopping mall would be the end of an era for older Singaporeans.
In the past, there was escape theme park. Singaporeans from all over Singapore would go to Pasir Ris just escape theme park. Therefore, we had quite a bit of memory about Pasir Ris Bus Interchange and the non-airconditioned bus plying that route, as well as the iconic scene whereby the bus loop outside escape theme park. Not sure if the route is still the same.
Honestly, it’s a new beginning. Pasir Ris ITH makes Pasir Ris more like a proper residential town, rather than some seaside holiday destination that it is always know for.
properly it will replace the old Pasir Ris Interchange when cross island line open.
Pasir Ris Integrated Transport Hub Bus Interchange will most likely to be opened on 27 April 2025.
