History

First announced on 23 May 2016, this terminal was constructed and built on land formerly owned by Malayan Railways,[13] and replaces the former New Bridge Road Bus Terminal, as the site will be redeveloped into a new elective surgery centre by the Singapore General Hospital.[2][5][9][10][13][14] Originally, the opening was slated for end-2017,[14] but it was then delayed to March 2018.

Opening

The terminal officially began operations on 10 March 2018, with existing services from New Bridge Road Bus Terminal amended to originate from this terminal on that day.[2][3][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] The terminal is located about 500 metres from the former site of New Bridge Road Bus Terminal.[1]
