There’s good news for over 17,000 households living in Sembawang and Yishun — Canberra MRT is set to open on 2 Nov 2019.
Finally the missing link to the Sembawang-Yishun MRT puzzle is complete.
This also means that residents in the area no longer need to take feeder buses to Sembawang or Yishun MRT, now that Canberra station is just a stone’s throw away.
Despite the announcement earlier this year, Land Transport Authority (LTA) has graciously reminded residents in the north that they can look forward to the station’s opening on 2 Nov.
They even made a cute infographic video announcing this in a Facebook post on Thursday (10 Oct).

Both Jurong East and Orchard will be just 10 stops away.

Residents in the area will surely find travelling a lot more convenient with all the amenities in place.
