The North East Line extension (NELe) comprises a 1.6-kilometre extension from the existing Punggol Station to the new Punggol Coast Station. The station will be integrated with JTC’s business park in the Punggol Digital District. It will also bring rail connectivity closer to the area and support plans to develop the district into an attractive live-work-learn-play destination for residents, workers and students.

2          Punggol Coast Station will also support numerous other upcoming developments in Punggol North. These include new residential estates at Northshore District and Punggol Point District, as well as the Singapore Institute of Technology’s (SIT) new campus.

3          Punggol Coast Station will bring the total number of stations on the NEL to 17. It will enhance connectivity from Punggol North to the city centre as well as other parts of Singapore, cutting down travel time by up to 15 minutes.

4          LTA has put in place several measures to minimise construction impact to the public. Instrumentation, real-time monitoring and rigorous survey checks are put in place to ensure the safety of the surrounding infrastructure. Works to construct the tunnels began in 2017, and the station is on track to be completed by 2023.
