On 9 Nov, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) shared a video on its social media, showcasing the interiors of the upcoming MRT stations on the Downtown (DTL) and Thomson-East Coast (TEL) Lines.
Transport Minister Jeffrey Siow announced on 4 Nov that the Sungei Bedok, Xilin, and Bedok South stations will open on 26 Dec.

Sungei Bedok Station is coloured more simply.
The TEL platform, with its high arches, is mostly clad in plain, bright white, with patches of dark blue used to make designs along the walls.
The hoarding at the DTL platform, meanwhile, is themed with polished blue walls.
The station bridging the DTL and TEL also features some walls with iridescent tiles, made up of shiny gold and silver, paired with pastel shades of green and yellow.

Xilin Station is simpler still, with stylised squares across the station’s walls and ceilings as the core design theme.
A reflective yellow wall along one of the walkways also provides a pop of colour.
At the time of writing, LTA has yet to announce an open house for the three upcoming stations for public viewing.
Commuters eager to see Bedok South, Xilin, and Sungei Bedok Stations with their own eyes will have to wait for their opening day on 26 Dec.
This new link between DTL and TEL is set to bring greater accessibility to the East.
