10 new launch condos within an 8-minute walk of the upcoming Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) MRT stations

One major aspect that buyers look out for when buying property is accessibility to public transport. Especially for those who don’t drive, living close to the MRT will cut down travelling time.

A major exciting MRT development is the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL), which has opened progressively and is estimated to be completed by 2025. It will consist of 32 stations, with eight interchange stations connecting to major MRT lines such as the North-South Line, Circle Line and East-West Line.

Connecting the north, south and east regions of Singapore, the Thomson East-Coast Line is expected to serve one million residents in the long term.

For now, stations from Stages 1 to 3 have been opened, stretching from Woodlands North MRT to Gardens by the Bay MRT. 

Using 99.co’s search filter function, we’ve narrowed down several new launch condos within an 8-minute walk of a Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) MRT station.
