The Bukit Timah Expressway (abbrev: BKE; Chinese: 武吉知马高速公路; Pinyin: Wǔjízhīmǎ Gāosù Gōnglù; Malay: Lebuhraya Bukit Timah) is a highway in Singapore that starts at the PIE in Bukit Timah and travels north to the Woodlands Checkpoint and the Johor-Singapore Causeway.

Before the KJE was completed, BKE was the shortest expressway in Singapore, at about 10 km (6.2 miles). This expressway is a six-lane dual carriageway, with three lanes on either side. In 2003, the LTA began work to convert a section of the expressway, from the intersection with the KJE to that with the SLE, into a four-lane dual carriageway. This was completed in mid-2005.
