The Johor Bahru/Singapore line is probably one of the most needed line. The traffic between JB and SG has gotten to absolutely ridiculous proportion. The car jam can last upward to 5-6 hours on particularly busy weekends, sometimes even longer. The number of people that have to transit between the two cities can go up 350k per day, with numbers as high as over 500k. Travelling between JB and SG has become stuff of legends. With a train line that can shuttle between the two stations at regular, high intensity interval, like 2 mins per train that can carry 500-700 passengers per trip, it will ease the burden on the existing border crossing routes. I can only hope they have the foresight to build extreme capacity to clear passengers at each custom.
Its insanely cool how well-connected the whole country is by metro and how much they plan to expand it to seemingly cover the entire surface area available!! lol
@buck rogers You have no idea what you're talking about.
Not cool. It is fast forwarding the sinking of our tiny island.
@@RonLarhz Are you 12? That's the most absurd thing I've ever heard. That's not how engineering works
@@RonLarhz dude lmao what
@@RonLarhz are we sinking? I tot is just sea level rising
I loved taking the Singapore MRT when I visited the country! Nice to see more stations continuously being built! From Australia 🇦🇺
Dude, I am in Australia right now and I am a Singaporean! I appreciate your commend for our MRT project.
Thanks for your comment about our transport system! We are experiencing equally hot weather tho 😂
Asian metros, the ones you can trust they will reach their expansion projects and even overdeliver.
And also expect extreme-overbudget.
@@mantis2179 nope American transit projects are the ones who tend to be overbudget all the time, look at new york second ave subway and east side access.
@@seananlinjunxi868 hes half right the one in hong kong was blatlantly bullshit due to construction scandals
@@maxmy2007 but singapore is in south east asia 🤨
Yes unlike the UK ones
Those "under planning" lines at the end seemed to cover some really interesting routes (as they are close to the coastline, or that green line that crosses the island horizontally). I'm surprised they haven't gave these lines the priority
Not that it hasn't been given priority, but land leases on many parcels where that line ( the Cross Island line) cuts through belonged to the military and private estates. Those leases, and it's facilities needed time to either expire or new facilities, such as a new air base needed to be developed, which means supporting facilities, housing, long term development and contracts so that an area doesn't become defunct.
Many of these stops are also once low density, high affluent areas. So the population there drove and preferred driving.
Attitudes have shifted, population along these places have grown. Now the need for public transport warrants the millions of dollars required to build that one station there.
So there you have it :)
It's insanely cool, from 1 expand to 12 lines within few decades, making travel within Singapore easier and fast. 👍🏽👍🏽
Its amazing to see you improve!
I like the zoom in station names feat you’ve got
Perfect video! Well done! Love showing every station name and new lines by fading in. Will you make one combining the past and future expansion of Singapore MRT?
I feel like they won't want to make another video that is just two old videos
Always been drawing this since I was 10. Good job!!!!!! :D
Nice of you to make this vid. I’m even not so sure about my own metro.(It’s the one in this vid)
This is a really good and detailed video!
However, there are some mistakes:
0:37 : Xillin & Sungei Bedok stations on the Downtown Line will not open in 2024, and will instead open in 2025, together with the opening with Bedok South & Sungei Bedok stations on the Thomson East Coast Line.
0:53 : As of May 2, 2022, Teck Lee LRT does not have a planned opening date, and will continue to be closed due to the lack of development & facilities in the area. It won't open in 2024. (unless LTA announces)
Tagore MRT (located between Springleaf & Lentor MRT on the Thomson East Coast Line) will be opened once the surrounding developments are ready. As of now,, it is currently a shell station.
2024/2023 is a reasonable time for teck lee to open cuz by then the SIT & BTOs nearby would be ready
You forgot one mistake i think... the seletar line is not supposed to end at marina bay. But at Greater Southern Waterfront
Will there be MRT serving residents living in Seletar Hills estate?
@@williamlim8866 its couldbe planned but not confirmed. Hope that metro lines can reach out to every parts of singapore for easier access
teck lee will open very soon i spoke out to a member of lta in person
Great system, and video too. I love that they're planning well ahead of time. The Cross Island Line is the perfect finishing touch. As an aside, some fantastic station names. As an Aussie, I was shocked by Canberra Station but I also loved Beauty World and, best of all, Cashew.
Great expansions planning!
I like how you made these lines so accurate. Singapore would appreciate what you have done with adding extensions and new metro lines.
Uhh the plans were originally from SG, this is just a clean one. From Singapore.
Cannot imagine how convenient SG will be with these great transport networks.
Amazing video! Would love to see Shanghai or Barcelona next, both are great metro systems!
You forgot to add Tagore station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (between Springleaf and Lentor). It’s an unopened shell station like Bukit Brown on the Circle Line. Awesome video though!
Is anyone super excited that they will get to see this extension happen in their lifetime or is it just me lol
Yasssssss how i wish i could fly to singapore and explore their metro
Holy moly. And i thought connecting my place to city area is already enough, there is still more train lines that are still able to connect
Some future extensions not in this video but have appeared in some official publication or another (usually in the URA's concept plans):
- Extension of Cross Island line (Punggol Spur) from Punggol all the way to Sembawang or Yishun, and rebranded as the possible "Northshore Line"
- Extension of NEL from Punggol North into Ubin and Tekong before returning to the mainland via Changi (Likely linking at T5 station under the current configuration).
- Extension of Downtown Line in the north from Sungei Kadut into Lim Chu Kang.
- Extension of Jurong Region Line from Jurong Pier into Jurong Island.
- Extension of East-West Line from Tuas Link into Johor.
- Extension of Cross Island Line Westward into Tuas South.
Most of the ones you’ve listed in your comment has already been shelved or are just theories, no plans for these have been made official, that’s why it was not mentioned in the video.
-
As much as I want to see the north shore line, about 85% of the original plan has been shifted into the Seletar & Cross Island lines already, it’ll be more feasible to just extend the Punggol branch to meet at Seletar station and leave it as it is, there’s barely any space left for the extension to go further without running along side another line making redundancy in a Low density area. A tram style/ higher density LRT (similar to the JRL but 3 car trains) would be better in serving Sembawang - Yishun area but currently the busses are coping just enough and I don’t see them doing anything about it for a long time cause LTA wants to save ass after the whole LRT failure.
-
The plans for the NEL extending further than Punggol North, has been shelved for more than a decade now due to the modernisation restrictions on the satellite islands, currently there’s no plans on extending the NEL, EWL or CRL any further than what was presented in the video. Other than the EWL Jurong Port Branch Line that’s most likely benched due to its high costs and very specific riderships into a supposedly automated port, a cheaper alternative is most likely being considered.
-
Downtown line northern extension was “leaked” as a potentially feasible option that’s being looked into with a proposed station beyond Sungei Kadut, but currently no official plans has been made or announced nor was it mentioned to go into Lim Chu Kang since that area is highly undeveloped with no plans and the Low ridership wouldn’t make that feasible either.
-
The TEL wasn’t allowed to extend into Malaysia thats why they compromised with the RTS instead, there’s 100% no way the EWL would extend into the neighbouring country either without limitations and complete rework into RTS2. It’ll also be redundant when the HSRL plans comes back (if it ever does, Malaysia is very on and off about it but China is very confident in wanting to connect to Singapore, so we won’t know for a long time.)
Or another plan is to extend the East West Line from Tuas Link via Wrexham, Poyan Reservoir, Murai, Sarimbun, Sungei Gedong, Neo Tiew and terminating at Kranji. My views and plans since 2008.
Jurong Region Line can branch into Lorong Danau and go all the way to Lim Chu Kang?
I also have another plan, branch the EWL at Pioneer to go via Upper Jurong, Pasir Laba, Wrexham and go all the way to Malaysia.
I'm so jealous of places like Singapore that continuously invest in public transit.
Which country do u live?
@@bsgalaxybrawler28 Los Angeles
I'm also a mrt fan thanks for your video
excelent, the evolution Buenos Aires underground please
Normal people simp for girls, I simp for MRT
...
WHAT THE HECK
Would love to see a video on Kaohsiung and its combined rail solutions
Can you do Milan next please?
Can you do a video about KL's metro?
Can you do Milan metro and suburban train system next?
You should do this history of Northern Ireland Translink railways. Or do future plans
cross island phase 2 has been announced and will open in 2032 The stations include Turf City, King Albert Park (Interchange) Maju Clementi (Interchange) West Coast and Jurong Lake district
Insane
For the Cross Island Line, LTA announced that it will extend from Bright Hill to Jurong Lake District
May i know anyline alone Yio Chu Kang Rd to Seletar to AMK? If so, when?
Instead of building so many lines, I suggest sg should have one Expresss loop line to connect heartlands
this is a good idea tbh. The DTL is basically a non-express version of that, and the CIL seems to be semi-express for the north east, and the circle line covers semi-central bit of sg. Woodlands to Khatib just gets no love i guess. Think the struggle with an "express" loop line is that it wouldn't really be that expressy in the grand scheme of things since that would be missing out a lot of places, unless they build a line solely to interchange with other lines, but then that wouldn't make sense because they'd want to build lines to increase accessibility to the MRT for neighbourhoods that lack it, like the East Coast portion of the TEL and the CIL, both of which are now completely dependent on buses for travel (along Marine Parade Road - Upper East Coast and the TPE section from Tampines to Punggol)
Except that it does not reflect the main movement of people on a daily basis in Singapore.
This is all really convenient and all but at a certain point it feels so like just added convenience that isn't exactly necessary but is just a luxury to have
Incredible that one of the smallest countries in the world has a expansive metro system
By 2040 getting from one point to another point in Singapore maybe as fast as taking private vehicles.
2026
Thomson-East Coast Downtown Line
Extends to Sungei Bedok
I love to watch this video. BTW I am from #singapore where this video is from.. 😂🇸🇬📹
I really love watching your videos! Only one thing I would change is to remove the thing where the lines "bloat up" when they get extended, because that is very distracting and makes it difficult to track the progress of the metro system in the video.
It's so hard to track progress without the bloat up
I respectifully disagree. The "bloat up" makes it much clearer in terms of what line is being focused on.
Can I repost your video? thank you. 😘
pls do future of new york subway
2:48 East West Line Changi Airport Branch becomes Thomson-East Coast Line.
2032
Cross Island Line
Extends to Jurong Lake District
that is a lot of holes dugged up in the central areas.
Kuala Lumpur next?
When your home/workplace district gets mentioned
When the country is so small and when you have a lot of money, every corner can be covered easily.
And the Buenos Aires metro? For when?
2034
Brickland opens as infill station
can you do the Bangkok Metro
1:07 I knew it this was gonna happen
Can you please do the MALAYSIA MRT LINE?🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
2:55 East West line: Hey u steel my line Thomson East Coast line: I don’t care I want yours Both: I want I want!! I WANT!!!
can you do istanbul
Will they connect Punggol to Sembawang?
The Northeast, Tampines, Pasir Ris, Punggol and Sembawang need to be connected, for direct travel to Woodlands and the Causeway.
there is a planned extension of the punggol branch of the cross island line that will go to yishun or sembawang as well as serve seletar airport
there is no need to connect to the north east as that area is just military training grounds, tengah airbase and farmland.
@@seananlinjunxi868 are you talking about the northeast or the northwest?
the circle line will finally be a complete circle
cool though
What's the reason for making the JRL above ground? They have better noise reduction technology now?
Taken from a May 10 2018 Straits Times article, "The LTA explained that an above-ground line can be built at a lower cost within a shorter period of time."
0:31 When the Punggol Coast will open 0:38 And this 0:45 and this too 0:55 this too
Can you do evolution of Kuala Lumpur Integrated Transit System and Hong Kong MTR?
Singapore 🇸🇬 has land Advantage over its Rival Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR that has Natural obstacles like Mountain ⛰️ made construction difficult for Expansion of Subways train 🚆.
Can you do Baku Metro Map (Azerbaijan) ?
Please do other Asian cities metros by mentioning Km and stations
I would like to see barcelona metro system!!
Sad but how many of us will live to see 2040?
Exciting but like how are we gonna figure out which one to take
Can you draw MRT Kuala Lumpur/Valley Klang?
that's why a car there cost as much as a house.
Singapore is so cool, I wish lived in a city where I don't need to own a car
Same. Cars are so high-maintenance and tedious to deal with constantly.
@@SuperValue350 And the fact that Cars are super damn expensive here in Singapore
@@kohwenxu I'm pretty sure that was by design to not gridlock the roads
@@SuperValue350 Yes and also ERP (Electronic Road Pricing)
@@SuperValue350 This also has led to Singaporeans using public transport as well, it’s not like this cars being expensive was just to not gridlock the roads
I wonder what will happen to the circle line’s branch once the rest of the line becomes a full circle?
Make Hong kong mtr,kcrc(2007) pls there have light rail on 80s to now.
the malaysia one will be so cool to see how itll be like travelling by the metro to it
CRL3
Under Planning
You missed out on the Tuas South Extension of the East West Line, it will connect to the upcoming Tuas Seaport
That extension was cancelled due to lack of development leaving the extra platforms at Gul Circle station unused
@@hrithikrk4826 Where did you hear that from? It wasn't cancelled at all, they will only announce the Tuas South Extension when there are more developments around that area. Having an MRT line in Tuas South will certainly benefits those that are working at the PSA Tuas Harbour in the future as the port at Keppel and Pasir Panjang are due for redevelopment of Southern Waterfront corridor.
Also ask yourself why the Gul Circle MRT Station are constructed on 2 different levels for both eastbound and westbound train? The stack platform are usually more common for underground stations such as City Hall, Raffles Place and Bayfront MRT stations. Such a design is the first for an aboveground station for Gul Circle
@@lxy315lxy Yea I meant that there are no plans atm for the extension 😅
Make the metro saint-peterburg 1955-2030-s
2:50, TEL extend to Airport in 2040？？
They should extend lines to some of the islands
Nah, Pulau Ubin is a nature reserve (reduce foot traffic to the island), Pulau Tekong is a military base, Pulau Semakau is a Landfill, Jurong Island is an industrial district that has restricted entry to non staff, and St.Johns, Kusu, Lazarus are too far away.
Most of the population lives on the main island, other islands are not for residential, except small private housing in Sentosa and a small village in Ubin. Others a Rd e either military bases or nature reserves
@@alexandernikolo4631 I guess I meant Sentosa mainly
@@linusfotograf XD if that’s the case Sentosa already have a light rail line, which is connected to the rest of the system at Harbour Front station.
@@alexandernikolo4631 It does? I was there in 2016 and I had to take the bus.
TEL3 opens 13 November 2022
Downtown line stage 3 extension to be like: Am I a joke to you?
can u make hong kong?
Can’t believe the circle line isn’t a circle!
Another few years time will be full circle
MOST trains in singapore are going to be Bombardier and ALSTOM by
Do mtr map
make MTR
me still waiting for an australian video
İstanbulu bekliyoruz 🇹🇷
bruh it felt like not long ago when I remember the bloo line was new
same lol but it's been almost 10 years already since it started opening
Keppel is NE2
0:41 Downtown Line Stage 3E will be opened by 2025 not 2024 due to Covid-19 Pandemic of Singapore.

Is there any place left for Singapore to build
underground
Please, Prague metro🇨🇿🇨🇿 please
Hey Singapore Metro train with me
But why not connect Punggol to Yishun?
There is provision for that.
Technically there are buses for that.
who knows maybe all the way to KL .
No matter how many lines are there, there will always heavy traffic everywhere. People won't give up their cars and driving.
That is until Singapore adds express services running parallel to the main network with trains running at higher speeds
