Cantonment MRT Station (CC31) is a 28-meter deep underground station located along the Circle Line (CCL) Stage 6. It is built along Keppel Road, near the junction of Cantonment Link, bringing rail connectivity to Tanjong Pagar Distripark, Cantonment estate, Spottiswoode Park Estate and future developments in the Keppel area.

The station is named after the nearby Cantonment area, formerly used as lodgings assigned to troops and hence its name. The Keppel Port area south of the station is planned to be redeveloped after 2030, once the container port has fully moved to Tuas Port. The future Greater Southern Waterfront region currently under planning will provide more options for city living.

As the station box lies underneath the old Tanjong Pagar Railway Station platforms, about 290 metres of each platform were dismantled to facilitate construction works. They were repaired and fully reinstated after the completion of Cantonment station in 2026. The first 80 metres of each platform extending from the railway station building were unaffected and protected throughout construction works.

The station will open for passenger service on 12 July 2026.

    The meaning of Cantonment is temporary living quarters built by the army for soldiers or military base. It has nothing to do with Canton (Guangdong) 广东 or Cantonese people 广东民. Using this for the Chinese obliterates the original meaning and suggests a different or mistaken understanding of the original name. Would a different transliteration or a translation of the original meaning have been more appropriate?

    Cantonment, Keppel and Prince Edward Road is the next station to open! I’m most excited for new track crossings being made! So excited! Also, I think that, in the “Platforms and train services”, it shouldn’t say “via Marina Bay” and “via HabourFront” because the next station is Cantonment, and Keppel, not Marina Bay and HabourFront respectively.
