Part of Keppel port terminal to be acquired for MRT line

8 Nov 2013

The government will acquire a portion of land at PSA Corp’s Keppel Terminal to make way for the construction of the sixth stage of the Circle Line, announced the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and Singapore Land Authority (SLA) recently.

SLA revealed that it had gazetted the land affected by the acquisition, which affects facilities on-site including a part of the internal circulation road as well as a one-storey port facility.

Stage 6 of the line will make the orbital a complete circle once it is completed in 2025, allowing commuters to enjoy a direct route between major employment areas within the central business district, shops and offices in the HarbourFront area, as well as upcoming developments in Marina Bay.
