Construction Progress of King Albert Park, Sixth Avenue and Tan Kah Kee Downtown Line 2 Stations

Mr Christopher de Souza asked the Minister for Transport if he will provide an update on (i) the construction progress of the King Albert Park, Sixth Avenue and Tan Kah Kee Downtown Line 2 stations; (ii) the estimated construction completion date; and (iii) when the train system will be operational there.

Mr Lui Tuck Yew: The construction of the King Albert Park, Sixth Avenue and Tan Kah Kee stations and their connecting tunnels have progressed well following the appointment of new contractors. Barring further unexpected events, we should be able to open Downtown Line 2 by mid-2016.
