Cross Island Line is a high capacity line of the Singapore MRT currently under development in Singapore. It is expected to run in an east-west direction from Changi to Jurong. The Cross Island Line will carry the code CRL. The line is colour coded lime.
The Cross Island Line was first announced in 2013. On 25 January 2019, 12 stations of this line was identified spanning 29 kilometres (18 miles), from Aviation Park MRT Station to Bright Hill MRT Station. On 10 March 2020, a branch of the Cross Island Line, 7.3 kilometres (4.5 miles) in length, was announced from Pasir Ris MRT Station to Punggol MRT Station. In December 2021, it was announced that the western half of the CRL will have 11 stations, with interchanges at the King Albert Park MRT Station, Clementi Station and Jurong Pier MRT Station. The terminus will be at the Gul Circle MRT Station. However, after the announcement, the map was taken offline, with the Land Transport Authority (LTA) stating that the actual route has not been finalised.
On the map below, I show the approximate route of the Cross Island Line. As this project is under development an on going, I will update this page from time to time as it progresses.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
