Woodleigh MRT station
NEL · NE11
Woodleigh station in detail
Woodleigh station has an unusual history: it was built with the rest of the North East Line back in 2003 but stayed closed for eight years, waiting for the surrounding Bidadari estate to be developed, before finally opening to the public in June 2011. That estate has since grown into one of Singapore's newer residential districts, and Exits A and E now lead straight into The Woodleigh Mall, a retail centre set among landscaped gardens. The nearby Woodleigh Bus Interchange, part of the same integrated development, opened in April 2025, and Alkaff Lake and the Bidadari Park green spaces are both within easy walking distance.

Woodleigh station stood finished but shuttered for eight years before it opened in 2011 — if you want to see how the area has changed since, the information boards in Bidadari Park are worth a look on your way to Alkaff Lake.
Woodleigh — frequently asked questions
No, Woodleigh (NE11) is served only by the North East Line, running between Potong Pasir and Serangoon, with no other connecting rail lines nearby to change onto at this stop.
The station was completed in 2003 with the rest of the North East Line but kept closed because the surrounding Bidadari area had not yet been developed. It finally opened to the public on 20 June 2011.
Take Exit A or Exit E — both lead directly into the mall on different levels, so you do not need to cross any roads at all to reach it.
