The Prince Edward Terminal wasn't a roadside terminal but there were bus bays and no alighting / boarding at the terminal itself. It is located along Prince Edward Rd opposite the former Singapore Polytechnic (Bestway Bldg).
Upon its relocation to Shenton Way, the Prince Edward Terminal was acquired for the consturction of the Benjamin Sheares bridge, which is part of the ECP. -
Sin Ming Bus Terminal
Former CSS 605
The terminal is somehow a roadside.

Sembawang Ter - located at the junction of Sembawang Rd / Mandai Rd for svc 171.
NOTE: The terminal was known as "Sembawang Ter". It is not to be confused or related with "Sembawang Rd End Ter" and "Sembawang Int". -

If I'm not mistaken, the original site for the terminal was just outside the Finger Pier Building. It was then relocated a bit further at Prince Edward Link; but I'm not very sure of this, though. When the facilites were moved to WTC, the terminal was also removed with services being amended to WTC terminal or Shenton Way Ter. The site was turned into a car park and if redevelopment has yet to claim the area, you should be able to see it today.

Long ago, there existed Anson Rd terminal. I've never seen the actual terminal so I don't know if it's a roadside facility or what. It should be located next to the Tanjong Pagar Complex. The terminal was where the First TIBS Service Flagging Off Ceromony was conducted. The service was 167. The site is now within the compunds of the Tanjong Pagar Container Terminal and I believe it's off-limits?

Or maybe it was moved further up? The terminal was located opposite the Ahmad Ibrahim Mosque and just outside the big army camp. I believe it was a roadside affair?

Closer to the look of St Mike's with only one row and the office on the right.
Alternatively, Kent Ridge with end-on berths.

I still remember from the 1985 street directory, there used to have a terminal along Sembawang Road. I'm not sure if this is the one.

I have some old photos of Rumah Tingi Terminal,Clementi, and Jurong. It is on film, i try to upload here.
Ulu Pandan Terminal is near my home. I took Sv 122 to Diamaru (Current Liang Court) when I was a kid. Before Clementi Interchange was builded, there are services parked along the Commonwealth Ave West , think 209 (??)

Before Clementi Int was built, there was a temporary terminal just outside the current Blk 437, Clementi Ave 3. A roadside terminal, precisely with busstops as boarding berths.
Svcs 74, 176, 185, 186, 191, 209 & 284 were the services terminate at Clementi Ave 3. -

I believe this was the Sembawang Ter. From what I know, service 171 next stop from the terminal is at Mandai Rd bef Meng Suan Rd. -

Anson Rd Terminal was never a roadside terminal. The terminal comprises only a bus bay lots (which means no alighting/boarding activities from that terminal) and a bus stop erected along Anson Rd. Passengers would have to board the services from Anson Rd Terminal from a bus stop at Anson Rd just near the terminal itself.
Previously, the location of the terminal was at the entrance of Tanjong Pagar Container Terminal, Scotts Green Rd.
Services from Anson Rd: 130, 131, 180, 186, 193, CBD1
As for 167, it used to terminate at Lim Teck Kim Rd. -
Not to forget:
- Jalan Kayu Ter
- Crawford Street Ter
- South Canal Ter
- Chai Chee Ter
- Commonwealth Drive Ter
- Jalan Eunos Ter
- Labardor Park Ter
- Potong Pasir Ter
- Redhill Ter (Where is the actual location since Bukit Merah Interchange was already existed back in the 1980s?)
- Sembawang Ter (Was this terminal also known as Nee Soon terminal as well?)

As far as i know, there was Redhill Close Ter where svc 41 terminates. Maybe someone can advise if there was a Bukit Merah Terminal before the interchange is existed.
Labrador Ter is now a lorry park. The hawker centre had been demolished recently

All the while its Sembawang Ter. Some people refer to it as Sembawang Rd Ter. -
Before all services were being consolidated to run from Bukit Merah Interchange when it began operations back in 1981, the bus terminal for Service 16 was at Telok Blangah Street 32 where it was an open air carpark. See map link for exact location http://www.onemap.sg/?SearchVal=78A%20TELOK%20BLANGAH%20STREET%2032&LW:Y&wO5d:fJIh_Y,JYhJf_b,aYqqf_R,hbqIh_I,q . Service 273 was then implemented to serve the residents after Svc 16 was cut back from the Telok Blangah estate.
There was also a roadside bus terminal for the original Svc 92 (from old paya lebar international airport to depot road via bukit merah lane) near the bus stop outside of the current ISS international school.

It is known as the Toa Payoh Garden Observatory Tower. It was built with the development of the new Toa Payoh Garden in the 1970s.
The temp interchange concourse was saved.
