Serangoon station in detail

Serangoon MRT station in Singapore — North East Line, Circle Line (NE12 / CC13)
NE12CC13

Serangoon is one of the busiest interchanges in the north-east, where the North East Line meets the Circle Line beneath NEX, the largest shopping mall in the region and one of the biggest suburban malls in Singapore. Since the Circle Line's loop closed on 12 July 2026, Serangoon has become a genuine cross-network hub, with trains reachable in both directions without doubling back through the city centre. NEX itself spans seven retail levels above the station, with two supermarkets, a cinema and a rooftop public library — enough to make the station a destination in its own right, not just a place to change trains.

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

With the Circle Line loop now complete, check the platform display before boarding — a Circle Line train here can be going either way round the loop, and the wrong direction adds a long detour instead of a quick hop to your next stop.

Serangoon — frequently asked questions

Serangoon is an interchange between the North East Line (NE12) and the Circle Line (CC13), both running beneath the NEX shopping mall in the heart of the town centre itself.

Yes, NEX is built directly above Serangoon station and both line concourses link straight into the mall basement, so you never need to step outside at all, even in the rain.

Since Circle Line Stage 6 opened on 12 July 2026, trains run in both directions around the completed loop through Serangoon, so travellers heading to stations like HarbourFront or Marina Bay can choose whichever direction is faster.
