Bukit Panjang Bus Interchange is a bus interchange serving Bukit Panjang New Town, Singapore. It is diagonally opposite Bukit Panjang Plaza. The nearest station is the Bukit Panjang LRT/MRT Stations.

The bus interchange was served directly by existing LRT station and the existing Downtown Line MRT Station.

Since 16 December 2012, all services originating from the current bus interchange had been re-routed, as it has been closed to make way for the development of the Bukit Panjang Integrated Transport Hub (ITH). The new ITH is expected to be completed by 2nd Half 2017.

The current bus interchange will be developed into a new integrated transport hub. It will be integrated with the Bukit Panjang MRT and LRT stations as well as retail, F&B and residential developments co-located on the same site. It will provide commuters, residents and shoppers with easy access to the bus and rail network. Commuters in nearby residential developments and malls can look forward to running errands or shopping conveniently and comfortably, before transferring to their connecting buses or trains. Bukit Panjang ITH will be the 9th Air-conditioned Bus Interchange and 1st along Bt Panjang LRT and Downtown Line. Hillion is partially opening on 24 February 2017 & fully on 10 Mar 2017

Under the new bus contracting model, with the exception of Weekday service 177 under Bulim Bus Package, the rest of the services are under Choa Chu Kang-Bukit Panjang Bus Package.
