History

The Keppel MRT Station was first announced on 29 October 2015 as part of the Stage 6 of the Circle Line.[1] It would be located along Keppel Road, near the Keppel Distripark and Keppel Terminal.[2] It was announced that the station would enjoy a unique landscape theme; an undulating green roof (with tree-like columns) in a natural setting. An underground bicycle park was also planned, which would allow cyclists direct access to the concourse.[3]
