Pasir Ris Bus Interchange 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. It is located off Pasir Ris Drive 3,[1] adjacent to Pasir Ris MRT station and near White Sands Shopping Centre. It also serves as a pick-up/drop-off point for shuttle buses ferrying NSFs heading to the SAF Ferry Terminal for their shuttle ferry to Pulau Tekong.

History

The former Pasir Ris Bus Interchange

The interchange was built at a cost of S$2.7 million[2] and opened on 10 December 1989, along with the Eunos Bus Interchange. The interchange provides bus connections around the Pasir Ris estate. Bus Service 403 was the first bus route in Pasir Ris from 1979, which previously terminated at Tampines Road terminus before being amended to the current route of looping at Pasir Ris Road.[1]

Bus contracting model

Under the bus contracting model, all bus services operating from Pasir Ris Bus Interchange were divided into five bus packages, operated by two different bus operators. Services under the Loyang bus package started operations on 18 September 2016.[3]
