History

[edit]

Tengah Bus Interchange commenced operations on 21 July 2024.

Before September 2023, transport options were limited to a free shuttle bus, after which Feeder service 944 was extended and renumbered to trunk service 992.[3][4][5] Then on 26 November 2023, in tandem with the opening of Jurong Town Hall Bus Interchange, trunk service 870 was introduced to connect Tengah with Jurong East.[6]

Bus contracting model

[edit]

Under the bus contracting model, all bus services operating from Tengah Bus Interchange are under the Bulim bus package, operated by the anchor operator, Tower Transit Singapore.

When Tengah Bus Interchange commenced operations, both services 870 & 992 were extended to serve the interchange. In tandem with the interchange opening, a new bus service, trunk service 871, was introduced to better connect Tengah with Bukit Batok West & Beauty World.[2] On the same day, Services 870 and 992 was extended to Tengah Bus Interchange, connecting residents to Jurong East and Bukit Batok.[7]

A new bus service, 872, began operation on 10 August 2025, connecting the bus interchange with Chinese Garden MRT station.[8] New services 452 and 453 began operation on 17 November, connecting to Beauty World MRT station and Bukit Batok Bus Interchange respectively.[9] On 8 March 2026, new bus services 831G and 831W began operation, looping around Tengah town and serving the new Parc Point neighborhood centre. Existing bus services 97 and 97e were also extended from their previous terminus at Jurong East Bus Interchange to Tengah Bus Interchange.[10] Service 181 was extended from Jurong West to Tengah on 14 June 2026.[11]
