List of bus stations in Singapore
This is a list of bus interchanges or terminals that are part of Singapore's bus system. Bus terminals and interchanges serve as important nodes in the transport system as bus services start and end at these stations. Over time, there are several bus stations that have been shut down due to geographical retention or the introduction of new town centres, or creation of consolidated transportation hubs. The list of former bus stations are found here.
Overview
In the 1970s with the formation of Singapore Bus Service, the terminals of private companies were inherited by SBS. Many of these terminals were makeshift constructions without adequate facilities. The SBS embarked on a terminal improvement programme to build facilities such as more parking space, timekeeper's booths, rest areas for bus crew members, proper platforms with adequate shelter, toilets and food facilities. It also planned to construct new depots and terminals, so as to eliminate parking of buses in residential areas. Makeshift and roadside terminals were to be phased out.The development of bus terminals was closely linked to town planning in Singapore. Densely inhabited new towns were built along major roads and a bus terminal was allocated at a suitable point inside each of them. Feeder services were used to carry passengers within the new towns to the bus terminal. With the opening of the MRT system in 1987, bus terminals were sited close to subway stations so as to integrate the subway and bus services. The 1980s also saw the building of larger bus interchanges in new towns, such as the one at Ang Mo Kio which was twice the size of the existing terminal it replaced.

Buona Vista Bus Terminal
Buona Vista Bus Terminal is a bus terminal located at Holland Drive in the Buona Vista area of Singapore. The terminal is located adjacent to Buona Vista Community Centre, and close to the Buona Vista MRT station. Unlike most other terminals, it does not allow passenger boarding or alighting on the site itself.Previously, the Buona Vista area was served by the Commonwealth Avenue Terminal, located at the intersection of Commonwealth Avenue and North Buona Vista Road. Due to the construction of the Commonwealth Avenue extension in the 1970s, a portion of the terminal was affected, resulting in the creation of a temporary terminal at Holland Drive. The temporary Holland Drive terminal, started operating in November 1975 for certain bus routes. In 1982, SBS had to vacate the Commonwealth Avenue terminal and move to a temporary terminal called North Buona Vista Terminal. By the late 1980s, the present Buona Vista terminal had become operational, and bus services to the nearby Ayer Rajah Industrial Estate were introduced.
Changi Airport Terminal 2 Bus Terminal
The Changi Airport Terminal 2 Bus Terminal is a bus terminal located at the basement of Changi Airport's Terminal 2. There are also bus stops located at the basements of Terminal 1 and 3.Unlike typical terminals in Singapore, bus services do not stop for extended periods, due to the lack of bus parking facilities. Buses looping at Changi Airport first stop at Terminal 3, before proceeding to Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. The bus stops at Terminals 2 and 3 are connected to the Changi Airport MRT station.
Due to heightened security concerns, buses can only enter the basements after auxiliary police officers have physically boarded and inspected them. Bus services that serve this terminal have only single-deck and articulated buses in their fleets, due to height restrictions, even though these services are high-demand.
Only some bus services stop at Terminal 4 and a dedicated bus stand has been built. Bus 24, 34, 36 and 110 were amended here.
Some berths are reserved at the terminal for Singapore Police Force and Changi International Airport Services vehicles.
