Singapore has over 160 MRT stations across six lines – including the new Hume MRT Station and the addition of the extensive Thomson-East Coast line. The expansion doesn’t end there. Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat announced on March 5, 2025 that feasibility studies by the Land Transport Authority for two potential new rail lines are in the works. 

Details have yet to be confirmed, but here’s what we know so far. The first line, Tengah Line, covers the west and northwest sectors of Singapore. It will potentially cover Tengah, Bukit Batok, Queensway and Bukit Merah. The other line, Seletar Line, is set to cover Woodlands, Sembawang, Sengkang West, Serangoon North, Kallang, Whampoa and the Greater Southern Waterfront. 

There’s also a possibility that these two rail lines will connect at the Greater Southern Waterfront.
