History


The original interchange was built at a cost of S$2 million, and it opened on 23 August 1987. It was the first bus interchange in Singapore purpose-built for the Trans-Island Bus Service.[1]

The shops at Block 923 were closed and subsequently demolished in 2012 due to the development plans. Residents who were residing at Block 923 were transferred to a new residential area.

On 17 June 2013, the Housing and Development Board (HDB) released the land parcel where the former interchange and then-demolished HDB flat, Block 923, was located. The land parcel was launched for sale on 28 June 2013.[2]

On 27 February 2015, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced the construction and co-location of a new air-conditioned bus interchange with the new Northpoint City integrated development, named the Yishun Integrated Transport Hub (YITH). The new interchange is slated to open in 2019.[3] The Integrated Bus Interchange will be linked to the existing Yishun MRT station by a new underpass under Yishun Avenue 2.

As such, to make way for a new Integrated Transport Hub (ITH), the interchange was relocated to a temporary site across Yishun Central 1 behind Northpoint Shopping Centre on 14 March 2015. The ITH opened on 8 September 2019.[4][5]


Management


Since 5 September 2021,[6] Yishun Bus Interchange is managed by Tower Transit on a five-year term.[7]
