Punggol Coast station to open in December

This extends the NEL to a total of 17 stations along its 22-kilometre route.

Punggol Coast station on the North East Line (NEL) will begin passenger service at 3:00 PM on Tuesday, 10 December 2024. 

The new terminal station extends the NEL to a total of 17 stations along its 22-kilometre route.

Located in the Punggol Digital District, the station will improve rail connectivity to the JTC Business Park and the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT), serving over 28,000 employees and 12,000 students, as well as the upcoming Punggol Coast Mall. 

More than 200,000 households will be within a 10-minute walk of the station, leading to shorter travel times. 

The construction began in 2018 and the station was handed over to SBS Transit in August 2024 for operational testing.

Punggol Coast station will have two entrances: one on New Punggol Road and the other in the PDD. The station will also feature over 300 bicycle parking spots and is within walking distance of a bus interchange.

Designed by the Land Transport Authority (LTA), Punggol Coast station is pursuing Green Mark Certification for its energy-efficient design, which includes LED lighting and a hybrid cooling system.
