I thank Mr bus555 for his online forum reply ('Query on Jurong East Bus Interchange'; August 10).

As of now, the land parcel for the proposed new bus interchange is partly used for a temporary market (Pasar Malam).

I do not know if any tender is open for the sale of that land parcel.

If we assume a 5th September opening, we can expect the news to come about 2-3 weeks prior, so around 15-22 August.

UPDATE 19/8: Went to the bus interchange to take a peek. It's probably not going to open until November. Services 99, 182, 254, 255, 257 likely to start from Joo Koon, along with three "new" JIS services 253, 256, 258.

The bus service number signboards are up already uh?

Anyway, why can't 99 reroute to Boon Lay? If like that then don't need for a new route from Boon Lay to Street 93.

How did you come up with these numbers? Did you see it or speculation or insider info? Important to state so that it does not mislead others.

It's not official. There was just one plastic sample electronic display board hanging above one of the berths in there, with the "next arriving" timings shown, and the date was listed as "13 July". These were the eight routes on the board: 99, 182, 253-258. So my guess is that this was probably the preliminary plan LTA had in mind. None of the berths or route description boards are up.

Unfortunately I forgot to bring my phone in to take a snapshot, and I couldn't remember all the routes' destinations before I got chased out :(

I am sure jurongwestresident will make a trip and come back with pictures :))

Why always me? :(

Anyway, I do not think the opening day is after Q3, because they already say it is opening in Q3.

I guess the opening day may be delayed by one or two weeks because the upcoming General Elections may be in September. Many people say that it is on 12 September.

If the General Elections is on 12 September, the possible opening days are 5, 19 and 26 September.

However, until now, there is still no press release about it. So maybe not 5 September.

I have new pictures, but I feel that if I share it online, I may get into trouble.

because unlike previously, the bus interchange is already built. With road markings, road signboards, etcetera.

Why don't you do it? :)

Wow,Only 99 is out of Jurong area..

SBS 3010C SG

I heard that the bus stop opposite Blk932 bus stop is for service 99. So 99 will not be a loop service anymore.

I also heard that it is delayed and will only open on 21/11

wsy1234 SG

i thought jurong east interchange is belong to the new bus operator? maybe some services under sbst will move to boon lay and some old service from boon lay move to joo koon?
