Outram Park station in detail

Outram Park MRT station in Singapore — East West Line, North East Line, Thomson-East Coast Line (EW16 / NE3 / TE17)
EW16NE3TE17

Outram Park is a three-line interchange linking the East West Line, the North East Line and the Thomson-East Coast Line, making it one of the more complex stations to navigate on the network. It sits at the edge of Chinatown and near Singapore General Hospital, so its passenger mix spans hospital visitors, Chinatown-bound tourists and commuters interchanging between lines. The layout spreads across several levels, so allow a few extra minutes when changing lines here compared with a simple cross-platform transfer, and follow the overhead signage closely rather than guessing the route between platforms.

Changing lines here is free. You stay inside the paid area and the fare is worked out once, from the distance of your whole journey.

Outram Park — frequently asked questions

Outram Park is a three-line interchange: East West Line (EW16), North East Line (NE3) and Thomson-East Coast Line (TE17), making it one of only a handful of triple-line interchanges on the entire network.

Chinatown is within walking distance, though Chinatown station on the North East and Downtown Lines sits closer to the main heritage streets, so many visitors prefer to ride one more stop rather than walk the whole way.

Yes, one of the station exits leads directly towards the hospital campus, and it is the closest MRT interchange to the main SGH buildings for patients and visitors arriving by train.
