Several small general updates are also provided within. In summary, station structural works are substantially completed with the works now shifting towards the construction of station exits at street level, the architectural components and mechanical installations.

You can read the newsletter here.

C882 - Keppel update November 2023

 

25 November 2023 - A view of the lift shaft for the exit next to the eastbound carriageway of
Keppel Road.

Ahead of major disruptive work for the Circle Line next year, we pay the Keppel station a visit to check in on progress made. Backfilling work is continuing with a significant difference noted over the station's roof slab. In our previous update in August, parts of the concrete roof slab could still be seen exposed to the elements. These have since been covered over with soil and demolition work is ongoing for the earth retaining & stabilising system (ERSS) - a system of temporary walls installed to allow for the excavation and casting of the station box within.
