Bus Interchanges - SBST vs SMRT
-
Which interchanges belong to SMRT?
-
From what I understand, neither SMRT nor SBST owns the interchanges. LTA does. SBST and SMRT merely leases out the interchanges from LTA. I have no idea about the bus terminals.
AFAIK, SMRT leases Woodlands Regional Interchange, Yishun Interchange, Bukit Batok Interchange, Choa Chu Kang Interchange and Bukit Panjang Interchange. The rest is leased by SBST. -
Clarification.. not all interchanges are under LTA. Those in HDB town centres are under HDB. Operators have a license to operate from these interechanges.
It's really a confusion relationship , and I believe.. due to this confusion, these interchanges are under utilised. I believe if the relationship was clearer, these high traffic areas can be used to generate more revenue to cross subsidise public transport costs, like in HK.
Look at Junction 8. A good example of how private enterprise capatilises on public transport facilities. Commuters benefit from having an airconditioned and brightly lit passageway! -
Okay....
What about bus terminals? I don't understand which ones belong to whom. I'm assuming SBS owns all the TERMINALS? -

I called Transitlink (since SMRT and SBS hotlines are closed now) and they said ALL the terminals belong to SMRT.
Is this true? If not, which TERMINALS belong to SMRT? -
Hmm.. not all the terminals belong to SMRT.. from wat i noe, only Sembawang Road End, Admiralty Rd West, and Lim Chu Kang terminals belong to SMRT cos these 3 terminals only have SMRT bus svcs around.. Corrrect mi if i'm wrong.. thanks!Originally posted by ilovebuses:I called Transitlink (since SMRT and SBS hotlines are closed now) and they said ALL the terminals belong to SMRT.

Simply saying, those terminals n interchanges under the areas of purview of SMRT, ie, the northern n northwestern areas, r under the control of smrt.
Under SMRT:
Yishun Int
Sembawang Rd End Ter
Admiralty Rd West Ter
Sembawang Int (upcoming)
Woodlands Reg Int
Bt Panjang Int
Choa Chu Kang Int
Lim Chu Kang Ter
Bt Batok Int
plus AMK/WDL/KRJ Depots
