Bishan Bus Interchange

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bishan Bus Interchange (Chinese: 碧山巴士转换站) is a bus station serving Bishan New Town in Singapore. The interchange commenced passenger service as Bishan Bus Terminal in 1988, serving 2 SBS services: 56 and 58. Located at Bishan Street 13, it is designed in a unique squarish configuration with the building wrapping around the bus parking area. Maintained by SBS Transit, it features a cafeteria as well as car parking facilities above the interchange, it is also linked to the neighbouring Junction 8 Shopping Centre, which is further linked to Bishan MRT Station. The Ministry of Education Language Centre (MOELC) lies across the field to the north.

Construction works are ongoing at one corner of this interchange. Therefore, the boarding berths for a few services were shifted to another corner of the interchange. When completed, passengers would be able to transfer to the Circle MRT Line from an entrance located right outside the interchange.
