Having cleared our updates on the quicker-moving phase 1 of the Jurong Region Line (JRL), we're now starting our updates on the 7 stations that will form phase 2 of the line. The first of these is the hardest to reach - Tengah Plantation - which is sited in the middle of Plantation Crescent in Tengah new town. There is good news though, as the area is set to open up from around August with the home owners receiving their keys shortly. This means that the area will gradually become accessible in addition to having several vantage points from which the construction can be observed. We'll definitely be making use of these to bring you some updates.

| 15 July 2023 - A view of Tengah Plantation station and the progress of viaduct pier construction. |
Over the past quarter, the viaduct piers on either side of the station have progressed significantly, with most of the columns reaching the crown level. The section to the north appears to have most of the piers cast, though work has not commenced on the crosshead construction as yet.
At the southern end, a few piers still remain between where the line veers off from Bukit Batok Road into Tengah estate. For the moment, the launching gantry "Magnificent Mammoth" has been taking a break after completing launching of the viaduct spans next to Tengah Park station. A portal pier needs to be constructed before works can continue launching the viaduct spans towards Tengah Plantation station.
With all this work still remaining, it will be an interesting opportunity to see the works up close once Tengah Plantation estate begins opening from next month onwards. Do stay tuned as we bring you more updates in time to come.
