Cheng Lim LRT station

Cheng Lim station in detail
Cheng Lim is named after the former Cheng Lim Farmway and the farms that once stood here before Sengkang's new town swallowed them, and it opened comparatively late, in 2013, once enough of the surrounding development was ready. Its standout feature is a direct pedestrian bridge to Sengkang General and Community Hospital, about a minute's walk from the platform, making this the closer of the two LRT stations serving the hospital campus. It's the first stop out from Sengkang on the West Loop, so getting here is quick — and since West Loop trains run in both directions, getting back to Sengkang is also a single stop — or a short walk.

Facilities at Cheng Lim
For the hospital, walk — the pedestrian bridge from the platform takes about a minute, which beats waiting for a train even if you technically could ride one stop. If you take the train, check the platform display: trains run both ways round the loop, and only one direction is a single stop to Sengkang.
Cheng Lim — frequently asked questions
Cheng Lim (SW1), linked by a direct pedestrian bridge about a minute from the platform — the closest of the two hospital-adjacent stations, the other being Compassvale on the East Loop.
One, heading out on the West Loop. West Loop trains run in both directions, so the return trip is also one stop; the other direction goes the long way round, Farmway through Renjong.
It’s a short walk along the road, sometimes quicker than waiting for the next train back to the interchange.
