Which Circle Line Station has 3 platforms?

iamgoondu SG

I was surprised to note that Paya Lebar Circle Line Station has 3 platforms and was asked to alight to switch to another train on another platform in order to proceed my journey to Dhobby Ghaut ...

I wondering which other Circle Line Station has 3 platforms?

Did the PA system in the train announce for the switch to another train? I didn't hear anything other than seeing a SMRT Staff screaming for commuters to switch over to another train if going over to Dhobby Ghaut.

The announcement can be heard at the platform however.

The train that you boarded was a SWT train. Always see the RATIS before boarding

What's so suprising? the middle track is for the trains to return to KCD

The middle track is also to stablise 2 trains, so that these trains can start their service from Paya Lebar once it reaches the opening hour. (To make the first train arrive between Paya Lebar to Dhoby Ghaut earlier)

Don't you mean stabling? Stabilizing is a different thing altogether.

As far as I know, no other Circle Line stations will be triple-tracked. Bedok Town Park station on the Downtown Line will, though, also for terminating trains to return to KCD.

I'm not sure which "stable" I'm referring, but you get what I mean :P

And yeah, no other Circle Line stations will have 3 platforms.

Actually it's 2 platforms & 3 tracks.

yellowflip999 SG

Nah, CCL (2 Platforms) + EWL (1 Platform) = 3 Platforms

The other one is Dhoby Ghaut. Hahah.

But here referring to CIRCLE LINE PLATFORM. DHG CCL only got ONE platform Get it?

A triple platform is an overhead one; FUTURE Jorong East MRT station(don't say I off-topic).

Even if u say Stage 4 / 5 of CCL, I don't think so. Read up please.

ERL dun think would serve Paya Lebar.

tranquilice SG

It is actually 4 platforms (platform A to D) and 3 tracks. If you think it should not be 4 plaforms, write in to LTA or SMRT.

tranquilice SG

There is no MRT stations here with only one platform. All MRT stations have at least 2 platforms.

This is shown in the photo below, with "Platform A" and "Platform B".

Sad, none of the stations at CCL4 or 5 have more than 2 platforms (tracks). Hopefully the trains won't be as packed as EW trains when arriving at HV or BV CCL stations.

To me, I'm guessing BNV or HBF will have three platforms..

No, not at all. I have somehow checked the feasibility of these stations NOT to have middle track because it can extended to nowhere.

Yes, the rumour, whether is an ERL extension or CCL extension, nobody could say for sure but such rumour are not baseless despite not reflected in 2001 plans (But reflected on 1996 plans).

The only 1 platform station is at Ten Mile Junction LRT.

I dun think it would be crowded. CCL stns, I describe some of them as 'got place to serve but dun serve the area'.

E.g.:

Overall, I think CCL may NOT make $$ (Nevermind la, SMRT still got its first two lines to make up the $$.).
