Route amendment for Service 5

The route of Service 5 will be amended to better serve the travel needs of commuters who are residing in the Flora Drive and Mariam Way neighbourhood. With the route amendment, it will be more convenient for them to get to the Downtown Line Upper Changi MRT Station as well as the Pasir Ris and Simei estates.

Effective from Sunday, 21 July 2019, Service 5, which plies between the Pasir Ris Interchange and Bukit Merah Interchange, will call at four additional bus stops, including a pair of new stops along Flora Drive:

Road Name

Bus Stop Code

Flora Drive

Parc Olympia

98299

Opposite Parc Olympia

98291

Mariam Way

Before Mariam Walk

98311

After Ballota Park

98319


On the amended route, Service 5 will skip these two pairs of bus stops along Upper Changi Road North, which it currently serves:

  • After Jalan Bena (97031) and Before Jalan Bena (97039)
  • Ballota Park Condo (97041) and Changi Prison (97049)

Commuters can still get to the skipped stops by transferring to Service 2 upon alighting from the amended Service 5 at either the bus stop in front of the Japanese School (97011) or the one outside the Changi Women’s Prison (97059), depending on their direction of travel.
