Jurong Island is an artificial island off the south coast of Jurong Port, created through land reclamation and the joining up of seven smaller islands. Today, it is home to many petrochemical industries, and access is limited to staff and visitors with valid security passes.
The boarding point for all Jurong Island Bus Services is at Bus Stop 28061, J Gateway, along Boon Lay Way. The bus stop is next to Westgate Shopping Centre. Dedicated queue line markings are painted on the floor to allow smooth boarding and passenger flow.
Previously, Jurong Island Bus Services used to start from Jurong East Temporary Bus Interchange, before being moved out to Boon Lay Way in August 2015 due to a lack of parking lots for the increasing number of public bus services at Jurong East.

The bus 716 is supposed to arrive at 0640hrs, not to arrive at 0636 or 0637 and leave at 0639hrs. Everyday this is happening. Pls advise. All the commuters are not happy. This isnt right. Pls reply. I will need to complain to the relevant authorities if this still persists. People are travelling from very far early morning. 0640hrs is already too early and your driver is inconsiderate. PLS REPLY. THANKS…
