The stretch where the two rigs are located sits between the Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS), formerly known as Singapore Institute of Management (SIM), and Maju military camp. With soil investigation works taking place in the vicinity, there is a possibility of a station being located here to serve the university and army camp.
