Renders - Indicative of station locations

Recently, we came across a few renders for stations along the Cross Island Line (CRL) and Jurong Region Line (JRL - you can view these here). Two of these show Ang Mo Kio station and potentially how it integrates with the existing North South Line (NSL) station.

From the render, it can bee seen that there are new links to the NSL platforms on the southern end. A new station extension on the east can be seen, on a portion of Ang Mo Kio Town Garden East. Bicycle paths stretching across Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3 and integrated with the station architecture can be seen as well - this remains to be seen as to whether the final station design will incorporate such features.

A further two renders show the interiors of Ang Mo Kio and a Tampines Road station. We figure that the Tampines Road station may be located where our post on a Defu station may be. The Ang Mo Kio station render shows a wide island platform, with half the width capable of accommodating a bank of 3 escalators. It is expected that these may lead to the NSL transfer.

Based on the render, this is the potential layout of Ang Mo Kio station.

Tampines Road station appears to be of a side platform configuration. With reference to the post on construction firsts - where it is mentioned that a single bore tunnel constructed using a large diameter tunnel boring machine is being explored for CRL construction - the use of such construction techniques would require the stations to use a side platform layout the reduce the need for extended sections of disruptive cut and cover construction. This site does a great job of explaining the design process in greater detail with reference to the Washington DC Metro.
