It is the first underground and the third biggest bus interchange in Singapore. The old Woodlands Bus Interchange at Woodlands Centre Road was converted into a terminus for people leaving Singapore, as well as for Woodlands intra-town services that are serving the old town centre there. Later, it was deemed obsolete and ceased operations. Woodlands Regional Bus Interchange was the first underground interchange in Singapore to accommodate articulated buses and double decker buses. Double deckers made their debut appearance in 19 February 1996 as an off-service SBS bus, one of which it is a Leyland Olympian 2-Axle and Mercedes-Benz O305 double deckers. Woodlands Temporary Bus Interchange took over operations from Woodlands Regional Bus Interchange on 12 March 2016, which will be converted to air-conditioned bus interchange, called Woodlands Integrated Transport Hub (ITH). Unique OrientationWoodlands Regional Interchange has a unique orientation as it is divided into two sides, depending on which direction it will exit the interchange. Bus Services between Berths 1 to 8 will exit towards Woodlands Avenue 7 whereas bus services between Berths 9 to 16 will exit towards Woodlands Avenue 3. Although SBS Transit Services 161 and 168 exit towards Woodlands Avenue 7, they are located in Berths 15 and 16 due to space constraints. RedevelopmentDue to the construction of the upcoming Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) which goes underneath Woodlands Regional Interchange, alteration works would be carried out to the existing bus interchange together with the upgrade to a air-conditioned bus interchange thus, focusing to be an Integrated Transport Hub (ITH) in 2019. A temporary interchange is constructed next to Woodlands MRT Station for the relocation of all of the bus services currently serving Woodlands Regional Interchange. Woodlands Temporary Bus Interchange (TBI) was launched on 12 March 2016.[1] Bus Contracting Model{{see also|Bus Contracting Model (Singapore)}}Under the new bus contracting model, all the bus services were split into 4 route packages- Services 169, 856, 858, 963, 965, 966 and 969 under Mandai, Service 161 under Sengkang–Hougang, Service 168 under Bedok and the rest are under Woodlands Bus Package.
