Jurong East Modification Project (JEMP)

For the closure I hope SBST will provide its DD as shutters, bendy arent enough..Cuz only LKS, CMT and BGB got crossover switching tracks

SBS8214Z SG

both the northbound and southbound tracks need access to the new platform, so I guess they fenced out the extra space towards the road so they can build the connection to the tracks leading to bukit batok as well.

just my two cents.

They should seperate the two lines, then do a linkway to both the platforms. The current middle platform will be the middle platform for terminating at Jurong East. Then can do crossover :)

EWL + NSL SEPERATE

I think you guys got a wrong idea of how the platform would be like when it's done. Allow me to explain

Current:

EWL(Eastbound)

_______________

NSL

_______________

EWL (Westbound)

When Completed:

NSL

_______________

EWL(Eastbound)

_______________

NSL

_______________

EWL (Westbound)

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong anywhere.

agreed.

then the NSL will have two additional track to the new platform (of course merged into one at the new platform), one directly split from the east track (from bukit batok direction), another have to cross on top of the existing NSL, then merge with the west track (to bukit batok direction), the cross will be at somewhere the existing track intersect with boon lay way

guess they've built up a green shell outside blk 204, is it becoz the new track is too near to the HDB block?

It's a temp shelter to prevent any debries from falling on the track/trains while building a new SB track from new platform over the current track?

bus555 SG

it will look a-bit confusing for me? i mean why not juz like city hall and raffles place?

E5 SG

Because of technical constraint. The upgrading work must not affect the normal operation of the train during the construction period. If they were to built the station like City Hall or Raffles Place, then there would be two problem;

-One of the track will have to demolished and it's track realigned

-Jurong East station is already quite tall. Adding an additional storey pair of tracks will be a engineering challenge itself.

Beside, the above two points would mean that train operations will be compromised during the construction period, which goes against what I've said earlier.

Also agree.

SBS7322B SG

Ok. They are going to make a new platform. That would mean already an engineering challenge.

alstom metropolis SG

i think instead of an engineering challenge,the tilted pillar at the junction is going to fall off at some point.what are the green tunnel thing at nsl at ns2-ns1 anyway?

gd4u SG

IMO, they will be adding another track over it ???? ????

It's a temp shelter to prevent any debries from falling on the track/trains while building a new SB track connecting to current SB track.

Such temp shelter is also use while constructing Dover MRT Stn?

SBS8214Z SG

The new platform is actually at the Boon Lay Way side. Should be more of occupying JE St12

St 12 or St 13?

jcqh SG

As of Saturday, the pillars for the new track are all up, but do not look complete yet.

The covers (to prevent debris from falling onto the tracks/train) on the track has now been extended to the SB track as well.

brotherchen1982 SG

The pillar near the MRT entrance still not up.

The base of the new section is being constructed.

alstom metropolis SG

a guy was seen taking away those metal rods,revealing nothing instead of the pillar i expected.if a person was on a train that terminated at the most left platform(nsl)and he wanna board the ewl westbound,have to cross 3 entire platforms??

NickL_C151 SG

Yes, via the concourse.

This is the same in Hong Kong if you want to change from West Rail Line towards Hung Hom to Tung Chung Line towards Tung Chung at Nam Cheong, or East Rail Line towards Lo Wu/Lok Ma Chau to Ma On Shan Line towards Wu Kai Sha at Tai Wai.

yongjianrong SG

These are the bridges that you are referring to? How do they prevent debris from falling onto the tracks when there's nothing above the tracks which is under construction?

yongjianrong SG

New pillars. 20/10/09

brotherchen1982 SG

Parts of the tracks are connected
