SBS Transit Express Service 174e is a peak-hour express route variant of bus service 174 connecting residential estates of Jurong West and Bukit Batok to Orchard and Outram areas while taking shortcuts and skipping bus stops along the Bukit Timah sector.

Despite charging express fares, Service 174e attracts significant loading for workers and students in Jurong West heading to Bukit Batok to reach their destinations, with several schools and Bukit Batok along its route. Similarly, this route also gives passengers time savings between Bukit Batok and Orchard, with bus captains taking the Pan Island Expressway (PIE) from Napier Rd to Beauty World during evening peak hours.

On the eves of Christmas, New Year, and Chinese New Year, evening peak-hour departures will be brought forward to the afternoon. Revised timing will be announced by the operator closer to the respective dates.
