Wenya Bus Depot
Coordinates: 1°21′40″N 103°42′18″E / 1.361019°N 103.705100°E Wenya Bus Depot will be the fourth and the first SMRT Buses bus depot to be built by the Land Transport Authority. It will be located off Jurong West Avenue 2.
The depot will accommodate about 500 buses and will be equipped with facilities for daily bus operations, bus maintenance and a rest area for bus drivers. It is scheduled for completion by 2015.[1]
History
Announced by LTA on 23 April 2013, the bus depot will be the first depot that LTA is developing and funding, as part of the review of the enhanced structural assistance that Government is providing the bus industry announced in Committee of Supply (COS) 2012. The depot is intended to accommodate the additional buses that it is bringing in over the next few years. The operator’s existing bus depots and bus park are reaching full capacity, and the new facility is necessary to support the higher number of buses as the overall bus capacity is progressively increased under the Bus Service Enhancement Programme (BSEP).[1]
