Unveiled sections of the Cross Island Line as of July 2024. Source: LTA |
With more contracts under the Cross Island Line (CRL)'s phase 2 being awarded, several new Telegram channels have been established to provide residents & stakeholders with updates on construction works. We felt that it was timely to provide a renewed update on the blog as well, for ease of reference should you wish to join the official channels. These groups allow the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and contractors to quickly disseminate information when necessary - for instance, when a road diversion is due to be implemented - allowing stakeholders time to receive the information and understand the changes coming in their vicinity.
