History
In the 1980s, Lim Chu Kang Road End Bus Terminal was served by Services 172 (to Shenton Way Bus Terminal and later shortened to loop at Jalan Anak Bukit) and 206 (to Jurong Bus Interchange and later amended to Boon Lay Bus Interchange).
In 1993, Service 175 was introduced to loop at Upper Bukit Timah Road while Service 172 was amended to Boon Lay Bus Interchange. Service 206 was withdrawn shortly after. In 1999, Service 175 was handed over from SBS to TIBS (now SMRT Buses) and renumbered to 975. In 2005, Service 975 was amended to start at Bukit Panjang Bus Interchange and loop at Lim Chu Kang Terminal. The terminal has since converted to a bus stop.
Then, Service 175 became the only bus service to use the terminal. In 1999, 175 was handed over to TIBS (from SBS) and renumbered to 975. In 2005, the route was amended to start from Bukit Panjang Bus Interchange and loop at Lim Chu Kang Bus Terminal, downgrading the terminal to a bus stop.
Service 975 is under Choa Chu Kang- Bukit Panjang BCM package.
