The Sungei Kadut MRT station (NS6/DT) will be a new train station in Sungei Kadut, Singapore. It will be an important connection point for two major train lines. These are the North South Line and the Downtown Line. This station is still being planned and built.

When Will Sungei Kadut MRT Station Open?

This station is expected to open in the middle of the 2030s. It will make it easier for people to travel around Singapore. The station will help connect different parts of the city.

The History of Sungei Kadut Station

The idea for Sungei Kadut station first came up a long time ago, in 1990. It was planned as part of an extension for the North South Line. However, at that time, there weren't enough people living or working in the area. So, the station was not built.

Years later, on May 25, 2019, the station was announced again. It is now part of a big plan called the Land Transport Master Plan 2040. This plan helps Singapore improve its public transport system. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is in charge of this plan.

What Train Lines Will Serve Sungei Kadut?

  • The Downtown Line (DTL) will link you to areas like Bukit Panjang, Botanic Gardens, and Chinatown.

Having two lines meet here will make travel much more convenient.
