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.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
