Thomson-East Coast Line Stage 3 to open in second half of 2022

11 Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) stations are expected to open in the second half of 2022, as announced by Transport Minister S Iswaran (9 Mar 2022) during the Committee of Supply debate.

The line will open on 13 November 2022.

On 17 August 2022, the Land Transport Authority handed over the stations to SMRT, marking the completion of all civil and structural works, as well as systems integration and testing activities. Operational testing will be carried out over the next few months in preparation of passenger service by the end of the year.

Originally announced to be open in the Year 2021, the opening of TEL Stage 3 was delayed due to material supplies and manpower disruption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The third stage of the Thomson-East Coast Line comprises 13 stations, including 4 interchange stations. However, Marina South and Mount Pleasant stations will open at a later date in tandem with developments in the area.
