J109 - Pandan Reservoir year-end update

 

18 December 2022 - A view of the first viaduct pier in the vicinity near the new junction of Teban
Gardens, Jurong Town Hall Road & Pandan Gardens.

Pandan Reservoir is the last stop of phase 2 of the Jurong Region Line (JRL). Progress here has come some way along with the first viaduct pier now visible on site. Come 8th January 2023, the junction of Teban Gardens & Jurong Town Hall Road will be shifted further north to form a cross-junction with Pandan Gardens. Preparatory work is currently underway to shift the junction & extend the existing alignment of Teban Gardens to facilitate station works.

2023 will bring about further changes as the roadway gets realigned roughly in the first week of the new year. The station structure and other viaduct piers should also become more visible as works progress along. We'd like to thank our readers for riding along with us through 2022 and look forward to a greater 2023 with you as well. Do stay tuned as we complete the wrap up of 2022 rail construction sites in the next week or so.
