From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Geylang Lorong 1 Bus Terminal (Chinese: 芽笼1巷巴士终站) is a bus terminal located within the Kallang planning area, at the eastern border with Geylang. Names after the road it is adjacent to, it sit opposite the Kallang MRT Station, and is operated by SMRT Buses, although rival bus company SBS Transit also operates routes from this terminal.
The terminal design is based on one whereby a small boarding and alighting area and terminal office are located within space largely reserved for bus parking space, as opposed to contemporary interchanges where terminal space dominate. Its location just outside the central restricted zone has part of early bus routings aimed at reducing congestion in the central area by siting terminals at the fringes instead of having a large number of bus routes congregating in downtown terminals. Downtown services were also operated from this terminal. With the introduction of the Park and Ride scheme, the terminal was selected as a designated transfer point for car drivers to park their vehicles and transfer to buses or the MRT.
