The Interchange:
Plans for the interchange were first mooted as part of the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA)’s 2019 Draft Masterplan and also in the Land Transport Master Plan 2040. The interchange would be sited within the Punggol Digital District, Singapore’s pilot Enterprise District comprising JTC’s mixed-use developments, and the Singapore Institute of Technology’s (SIT) new campus.
The bus interchange would be developed by JTC Corporation, the statutory board that develops Singapore’s industrial land. Within the PDD, the interchange is sited at ground level just west of Punggol Coast MRT station (designated JTC Parcel CC1 in planning diagrams), a business park development comprising PDD Towers 1, 2 and 3.
Based on available diagrams, the bus interchange will have a combined vehicular ingress/egress via a signalised junction along Sentul Walk. The site is bounded by Punggol Way to the north, the Punggol Heritage Trail (former Punggol Road) to the east, and Campus Boulevard to the south.
The Land Transport Authority referenced the name ‘Punggol North Bus Interchange’ in a travel guide for residents of Punggol Point Woods housing estate (dated September 2023).
However, in June 2024, the operator poster for the amendment of Service 84 indicates that the interchange is named as “Punggol Coast ITH”. Locality maps at the newly opened Teck Lee LRT Station also indicated the bus interchange as “Punggol Coast”.

It is certain
If this ITH only has 24 parking lots then i think Punggol Temporary Interchange is to stay.
Punggol Coast Int was never meant to replace Punggol Temp Int. The latter will be redeveloped into an ITH at a later date.
If 84G/W were to be amended to Punggol Coast ITH, then the route would have a big change as some sectors would lose connection to other sectors. The only efficient way I see this could happen is:
84G: Punggol Coast ITH – Sentul Walk – Punggol Way – Northshore Cres – Northshore Dr – New Punggol Rd – Punggol Rd – Punggol Ctrl – Punggol Walk – Sumang Lk – Punggol Way – Sentul Walk – Punggol Coast ITH.
In this scenario the Punggol Coast Estate—SIT—Punggol MRT sector is conserved, but the whole Sam Kee LRT sector is lost due to 84 needing to still serve Punggol MRT. The sector between Punggol Coast Estate—Punggol Point LRT is lost too.
Thus I think it is better that if 84 was amended to Punggol Coast, need to introduce a new feeder 383 to cover up lost sectors between.
