The extension consists of 1 new station at Changi Terminal 5 and new tunnels of 7.6km that will connect the 6th phase of the line to the existing stations along the Changi Airport Line (CAL). The three existing stations along the 6.4km long CAL will be absorbed into the TEL as well.

TEL5 - A snapshot in June 2025

A view of the two TEL5 stations as of June 2025.

With half the year since past, how have works on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL)'s final phase progressed? As the stations have largely been completed, changes these days appear to be more minor in nature as compared to station progress along the Jurong Region Line (JRL) or at Xilin station on the Downtown Line (DTL) for example. Join us as we explore the slight progress seen in the first half of the year after the jump.
