Getting In to & Out From NTU
Whether you're going home or heading in for the week, here's some tips & tricks to commuting.
By public transport, you basically have three (four) options: 199, 179, or Campus Rider (& Weekend Rider on Weekends). However, there's also external shuttle buses! Read on for more.
Public Transport
AT A GLANCE
Here's a handy map from NTU - with all the bus routes inside:
From Boon Lay Interchange, you'll be able to catch both 199 & 179. The former comes less regularly than the latter, which is available at least every 10 minutes.
​
From Pioneer station's bus stops, you'll also be able to catch 179, or Campus Rider (green) (& Weekend Rider (brown) on weekends)
​
For those staying in North Hill Halls (Tanjong, Binjai or Banyan), you can catch 199 on the way in & drop off at PUB Sub-Stn for a short walk in. On your way out, simply cross the road to Hall 10 & 11 for 199.
​
The last SBS buses out are at 2330.
