1950's to1960’s
Simple & sturdy concrete bus shelter design.

No lightning rod protection on the roofing unlike present ones, today.

Instead of the modern spaced out bollards, there is a small concrete wall to prevent vehicles intruding into the bus stop.
And an unfriendly one at that.
Where if one notice, the potential passenger needs to first mount down the platform before he/she can enter the bus. 
In the past, no such thing as elderly or disabled friendly.

The concrete roof is also slightly slanted to the rear of the bus stop for efficient rain-flow drainage.

Today, Year 2024, this is what remains of Lorong Kemunchup road

This area once housed many factories. Including the famous Ford factory and Hume industries concrete pipes for civil engineering works.

1990's

The benefit of an expansive shelter is its enhanced capability to shield commuters from rain. However, a notable drawback is the presence of only two round stone seats, which limits seating availability. Consequently, only two or three commuters can observe the approaching bus, while others are unable to view the arrival of the buses.

2000's Shelter Design

1st generation of the new bus shelter and seating.

This initial generation features more spacious seats adorned with chrome-plated accents. Additionally, the seats are supported by robust chrome legs.

Distinctive chrome inserts and stainless steel legs

Year 2024 Improved. Location opposite HDB Tampines GreenGem BTO

The bench seats, positioned near the back of the shelter's roofing, are protected from rain by large glass panels featuring a bus directory, which effectively keeps these seats dry.

This earlier model, lacking a glass panel, is susceptible to moisture accumulation on the seats.
