Brickland Station (NS3A Station) is an above-ground station along the North South Line (NSL), to be constructed from 1H 2026 (delayed from 2024). It will be located above Bukit Batok West Avenue 5, to the south of the junction with Brickland Road and Bukit Batok Road.
Both Brickland and Sungei Kadut stations were announced on 25 May 2019 as part of the LTA’s Land Transport Master Plan 2040. These stations are infill stations along the NSL targeted for completion before 2040. Previously, Dover and Canberra stations were built as infill stations along the EWL and NSL, opening in 2001 and 2019 respectively.
Additional details for Brickland station was announced by the Land Transport Authority in July 2023. It is projected to open in 2034.
Train Services & Platforms
| Platform A: North South Line towards NS1EW24JE5 Jurong East via NS3 Bukit Gombak (→) |

Brickland station has two elevated platforms in a side platform arrangement.
The middle track (existing southbound track) will be used as a cripple siding with no platform access, while a new track & viaduct will be constructed for southbound train services towards Choa Chu Kang & Marina South Pier.
Construction
Brickland station will be constructed under Contract 115 – Design and Construction of NS3A Station and Viaduct on the Existing North-South Line, which was awarded on 30 December 2025 to Obayashi Corporation at a contract value of around $281 million.
As part of the contract, a new viaduct and crossover tracks will also be constructed in addition to Brickland station itself. Construction works for the station and viaduct are expected to start in 1H 2026.
Engineering Highlights
According to the Land Transport Authority, significant engineering works are required for the addition of the new NS3A station to the existing rail network. This includes:
- A new viaduct that will be built to facilitate the staged diversion of train services from existing viaducts. This will allow modification works to be carried out safely on the existing rail infrastructure and systems, while still maintaining NSL train operations during the period of construction.
- New crossover tracks to be laid between existing tracks and new tracks, and the creation of a new siding which can be used in the event of train faults, thus improving service recovery and resiliency along this stretch of the NSL.
- Installation of a temporary protection enclosure over some stretches of the tracks during construction, as well as the carrying out of some works at night after train operation hours, to ensure the safety of our commuters.

Why does it take 10 years to built 1 station??
Actually, if it’s going to be so costly and complicated, and yet very limited economic effectiveness, they should just cancel this project.
Stop trolling. It’s good for us residents. Any public infrastructure is nett good for citizens. Go back to your own estate and speak for yourself
Hmm, it is built on the Gombak side instead of the Keat Hong side where it was originally planned?
What’s the new viaduct actually for? Bypass tracks?
It will be NS3A
LTA already announce is NS3A no need to worry
