Reconfiguration of Pasir Ris Bus Interchange

The reconfigured Pasir Ris Bus Interchange will be opening on 3 July 2021. This marks the opening of a new concourse area at the eastern side of the existing interchange.

The western side of the existing interchange would be demolished to facilitate the construction of the Pasir Ris Integrated Transport Hub (ITH, projected completion around 2028) and the Pasir Ris Rail Turnback. There will be no route changes to existing bus services at Pasir Ris Bus Interchange.

The press release and interchange signages refer to East and West loops of Service 358 and 359 using the ‘E’ and ‘W’ suffix. It remains to be seen if the electronic display signs on buses will be reprogrammed to reflect this change.

Background:

The reconfigured interchange is bordered by Pasir Ris Drive 3, Pasir Ris Central, Pasir Ris Central Street 3 and Pasir Ris MRT. It retains the existing eastern half of Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, with a new concourse extension built to accommodate 23 end-on berth lots and a new dedicated pick-up and drop-off point for the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF), named BMT@Pasir Ris, for the frequent shuttle buses that operate between the interchange and the SAF Ferry Terminal near Changi Beach.

Interchange facilities affected by the partial demolition will also be relocated to the new concourse extension, such as the Passenger Service Office, interchange offices, the NTWU canteen, and public toilets.
