Sengkang station in detail

Sengkang MRT station in Singapore — North East Line, Sengkang LRT (NE16 / STC)
NE16STC

Sengkang is a full interchange between the North East Line and the Sengkang LRT, whose two loops — East and West — wrap around the new town and feed commuters into this hub before they continue into the city. The station sits directly beside Compass One, a shopping mall with cinemas and a wide range of dining, and the integrated Sengkang Bus Interchange. Changing between the MRT and LRT here is free, since both are inside the same paid area — a detail that matters if you are connecting onward to one of the LRT's smaller stops. The Sengkang Sports Centre, with its pools and stadium, is a short ride further west.

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.

Tip

Because the Sengkang LRT runs as two separate loops, a train can only travel one direction around whichever loop it's on — check the platform display before boarding so you don't end up circling the wrong side of town before reaching your stop.
