This past weekend, Tanjong Pagar - Tiong Bahru CCC organised a Tok Panjang (long table feast) event at Blair Road on 16th September 2023. As part of the event, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) had set up a booth to reach out to residents and provide them with updates on the construction progress of Cantonment station.

Contract 882 for the construction of Keppel station has seen progress with the first of 3 station exits becoming visible at street level. The slope upon which the escalators and staircase will sit can also be visible, signaling that progress is leading towards the exits achieving basic structure completion soon. At the eastern end of the station, back filling works are also in progress. We take a closer look at the progress made at the station over August 2023.

Today we check in on the progress made at Contract 883's Cantonment station in the month of August 2023. Works have proceeded to reinstate the former Keretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM, Malayan Railways) platforms that were removed to allow works for the Cantonment station to proceed. The removed platform canopies were conserved & stored off site till works were sufficiently completed for their reinstallation at the original site. Besides this, the station exits are slowly becoming more apparent as well. We'll take a closer look at these in this post.

The recent visit to the Westin Hotel not only gave great views of Prince Edward Road station, but also of the cut & cover tunnels linking to Marina Bay station as well. Being built under contract 886, the tunnels will also feature a turnback siding, from where trackworks are taking place.

In early August, we managed to get some incredible views of the Prince Edward Road station site from the Westin Hotel's lobby at level 32. Overlooking the western downtown area, the lobby provided the perfect vantage point. Here's our pictorial update for the site as of early-August.

Structural works at contract 886 appear to be almost done with the site being handed over to the trackworks contractor. Known as a temporary staging area (TSA), this will form the base for trackworks to be carried out. Through the duration of the track installation work, some gantry cranes and other support equipment may be used.
