Sengkang LRT line

About

The Sengkang LRT line (SKLRT) is a 10.7-kilometre (6.6 mi) elevated automated guideway transit line in Sengkang, Singapore. The driverless line consists of 14 stations on two loops, with Sengkang station serving as the interchange for both loops and linking to the North East Line on the Mass Rapid Transit system. It is the second Light Rail Transit (LRT) line in Singapore after the Bukit Panjang LRT line, and the first LRT line operated by SBS Transit.

The SKLRT was planned in tandem with the development of the Sengkang estate in the 1990s. Construction of the LRT stations and viaducts was completed in 2001, and the Land Transport Authority transferred operations to SBS Transit in September 2002. The east loop began operations on 18 January 2003, followed by the west loop on 29 January 2005, with Kupang station being the last to open on 27 June 2015.
