The new Tampines North bus interchange opened on Nov. 27, 2022.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced the opening two days before Sunday to alert commuters to the amenities that cater to commuters and staff.
The bus interchange, managed by SBS Transit, is located along Tampines Street 62.
Inclusive features
Some of the inclusive features include wheelchair-accessible toilets, an accessible changing room and a separate baby care room for parents, barrier-free access at all the entrances and dedicated priority queue zones with seats at each boarding berth, as well as auto-sliding doors that operate by touchless sensors.
There is also a commuter care room for those with sensory needs who might need a quiet and calming space.
