Happy New Year 2026! (CCL6 version)

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! This year is looking to be a momentous year with lots of rail stations scheduled to open. The first of these is slated to be the final stage of the Circle Line (CCL) - stage 6 - that bridges the gap between HarbourFront and Marina Bay stations. Enough of those "why is it called the Circle Line when it is not a circle?" questions. It's finally becoming a circle. But before we get there, here are some early looks at the interiors of Keppel and Cantonment stations. They look good. Major thanks to @stormfire_transport for the heads up.

We hope that these images give you a better idea of the progress of works at the stations as they enter into the last leg of finishing up works ahead of the commissioning of the line. Between now and the opening, there are still some hurdles to be overcome - including the tunnel strengthening works taking place between Mountbatten and Paya Lebar stations from 17 January to 19 April 2026.
