In September 2016, an Artist’s Impression released by the Housing and Development Board (HDB) indicated that Tengah MRT Station would have 3 tracks with 4 platforms in a double-island configuration. However, the 2019 Draft Master Plan suggests a stacked island platform configuration for Tengah Station which will serve the eastern and middle track for Jurong Region Line (West & East).
The artist impression released by LTA in September 2019 confirmed that Tengah Station would be in a stacked island configuration, similar to that of Gul Circle station.
The station platforms are built to four-car length to cater for future expansion, although trains will only operate in a three-car formation.
Exits
Tengah MRT station will have several exits leading to ground level. More details will be confirmed closer to the opening of the station.
