==History==
==History==
Before (and during) the erection of Fajar Station, residents of this part of Bukit Panjang Town were served by bus service 179 that called on the bus stop just next to the Fajar Station. This bus brought passengers around Bukit Panjang Town and towards the [[Choa Chu Kang MRT Station|Choa Chu Kang]] [[Mass Rapid Transit (Singapore)|MRT train station]] where they could transfer easily to the train system mentioned.
