Sungei Kadut station in Singapore

Sungei Kadut MRT station (IPA: /ˈsʊŋ ˌkɑːdt/ SUUNG-eye KAH-doht) is a future Mass Rapid Transit interchange station on the North–South (NSL) and Downtown (DTL) lines, located in Sungei Kadut, Singapore. The station was first announced as a provisional station on the NSL Woodlands Extension in the 1990s. In 2019, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) confirmed plans for its construction as part of the Land Transport Master Plan (LTMP) 2040. The station is expected to be completed in 2035.

History

The future station will be built where the train is.

When the NSL Woodlands Extension was announced in the 1990s, Sungei Kadut (then named Kadut under station code N19) was unveiled as a provisional station as part of the extension. The station was planned to only be built in conjunction with the redevelopment of the Sungei Kadut Industrial Estate.[1][2]

In LTMP 2040, LTA announced that Sungei Kadut station will be built as an infill station between Kranji and Yew Tee stations, serving upcoming industrial developments in the area by JTC Corporation and the 18 hectares (0.18 km2) Agri-Food Innovation Park. In addition, the station will interchange with the DTL, serving as the line's new western terminus after it is extended from Bukit Panjang station.[3][4] Sungei Kadut will be the third purpose-built station connecting both elevated and underground rail services, after Sengkang and Punggol.[5]

A 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) viaduct is planned to connect the NSL after Sungei Kadut station to Gali Batu Depot.[6] Construction of the station is planned to commence around the end of 2025, with an expected operational date of 2035.[7]
