==History==
Before its opening, bus services terminated at scattered parts of Sembawang town, such as Admiralty Road West Bus Terminal for Service 980, Sembawang Road End Bus Terminal (near [[Sembawang Park]]) for Service 167 and the pair of bus stops outside [[Sembawang MRT Station]] for Service 981. When the bus interchange opened, these bus services, along with Service 859, which operated from [[Yishun Bus Interchange]], were amended to terminate at the newly opened bus interchange. A replacement bus service, Service 882, was created to replace the lost link between Sembawang and [[Sembawang Park]]. Services to the former Admiralty Road West Bus Terminal from Sembawang were covered by Service 856, which passes by both places along its route between [[Yishun Bus Interchange]] and [[Woodlands Regional Bus Interchange]], and bus Service 981, which passes by both place on its route to [[Senoko]] Industrial Estate. Double deckers made their debut in Sembawang Bus Interchange, on 11 June 2007 using Volvo B9TL / CDGE double deckers before service 117 and 883 began operation under the Bus Services Enhancement Programme in December 2015 and October 2016.<ref>[https://www.sbstransit.com.sg/press/2016-01-07-01.aspx New bus service 117]</ref>
