Despite being equipped with commuter facilities (2 sawtooth berths and 1 linear berth), the terminal is not open to the public. It serves as the starting and ending point for Services 75, 75A, and 184. Service 971 will not layover here. Service 974 will not end at the terminal, but it has been amended to loop at Bukit Panjang town center. The bus park consists of 20 rigid/double-decker bus lots and 10 articulated bus lots.
In August 2020, Gali Batu Bus Terminal was used as a COVID-19 testing facility for SMRT staff. Towards the end of 2020, it was used as a space for LTA Storage Buses under the Bus Contracting Model (BCM) scheme.
Despite its closure to the general public, Gali Batu Bus Terminal "has been designed with boarding and alighting facilities to serve developments around the bus terminal in future", said an LTA spokesperson. It is unknown when the terminal will be opened to the public.
