    As of 2024-04-17, the platform designations no longer exist.
    However, should Sentosa Express want to bring them back, VivoCity-bound platforms should be designated as Platform A (including arrival platform at S1 VivoCity and departure platform at S4 Beach), while Beach-bound platforms should be designated as Platform B (including departure platform at S1 VivoCity and arrival platform at S4 Beach).
    Unnecessary, but just some fruit for thought.
