Route confirmed for Singapore’s Cross Island Line Phase 3 SINGAPORE: The Land Transport Authority has announced the alignment and station locations for Phase 3 of the Cross Island Line metro project, which will extend the future line by 10 km from station CR19 in Jurong Lake District to CR23 at Gul Circle. On July 31, LTA said commuters travelling to and from the western parts of Singapore can expect time savings of up to 50 min once the line is completed. Two of the four underground stations on Phase 3 will be interchanges, with station CR21 connecting commuters to the Jurong Region Line and CR23 connecting to the East-West Line. A second CRL depot of approximately 23 ha will be constructed at the former Raffles Country Club site. This will be co-located with a multi-storey bus depot. Construction works for CRL3 are expected to commence in 2027, for opening by the late 2030s. The CRL will be Singapore’s longest fully underground MRT line at around 67 km long when completed. Construction works for the 29 km Phase 1 with 12 stations are in progress and expected to be completed by 2030. The 7 km CRL-Punggol Extension with four stations is targeted for completion in 2032. The 15 km CRL Phase 2 with six stations is targeted for completion in 2032. Works are also underway for a 6 km extension from CR2 station to CR1/TE32 station at Changi airport Terminal 5. CRRC Qingdao Sifang and Singapore CRRC Sifang Railway Vehicles Service are supplying 44 six-car automated trainsets, and there is an option to order up to 11 more to support future ridership growth. The line is expected to have a ridership of at least 600 000 passengers/day in the initial years, growing to 1 million in the longer term.
