Choa Chu Kang West station in Singapore

Choa Chu Kang West MRT station is a proposed Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the Jurong Region Line in Choa Chu Kang, Singapore. There will be two station names in the JRL naming exercise - Brickland and Choa Chu Kang West.[1][2][3]

History

On 9 May 2018, LTA announced that Choa Chu Kang West station would be part of the proposed Jurong Region line (JRL). The station will be constructed as part of Phase 1, JRL (West), consisting of 10 stations between Choa Chu Kang, Boon Lay and Tawas, and is expected to be completed in 2026.[4]

Contract J102 for the design and construction of Choa Chu Kang West Station and associated viaducts was awarded to Shanghai Tunnel Engineering Co. (Singapore) Pte Ltd at a sum of S$465.2 million. Construction will start in 2020, with completion in 2026.[5] Contract J102 also includes the design and construction of Choa Chu Kang station and Tengah station, and associated viaducts and A&A works to the existing Choa Chu Kang Station complex.[6]

Location

The station will be straddled over the existing Choa Chu Kang Avenue 3, just east of the junction with Choa Chu Kang Avenue 1. It is located within the Choa Chu Kang planning area between the Keat Hong and Peng Siang Subzones,[7] nested within an existing housing estate, near to Sunshine Place.

Access to the station will be via 2 exits, 1 of each side of Choa Chu Kang Avenue 3.[8]
