Completion of a station is a step closer to the opening of the Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System Link. The station is ready four months ahead of the link's scheduled opening in January 2027. The Land Transport Authority has shared photos of the completed station, noting its design was inspired by trees and incorporates a nature identity.
Engineering challenges were overcome during construction, including building the station's foundation on hard rock. This required rock blasting and the use of high-capacity drilling machines. Further details on the construction process are available from the Land Transport Authority.
