Singapore MRT Map Expansion

Фильм және анимация

As the Singapore rail network continues to expand, its visual representation in the form of System Maps has to change to fit new lines and stations while maintaining a clean look. Watch how the System Map has evolved four times in more than 30 years since the opening of the first stretch in 1987.
Proposed future lines and line extensions and their interchanges are speculations based on locations and alignments of soil investigation works. As of December 2021, no official announcement has been made on the exact route alignment. These lines are denoted as dotted strokes in this video.
The dates for the commencement of rail services from 2022 are to be advised. Names, station codes and colours of future lines and stations are to be announced.
Map History:
0:00 Version 1 - 1987
2:03 Version 2 - 2001
4:18 Version 3 - 2013
6:07 Version 4 - 2020

    This is the highest quality animation I've seen for evolution of any rail network evolution and definitely much better than the last one on your channel! Loved the style that changes through the ages, that's unbelievable effort right there.

    I love how the present-day (2022) is just slightly after the halfway mark; in a way, it's symbolic of how much the MRT network has grown, and how much it still has to grow. You've done an incredible job sticking as close to to the official styles used by the LTA as possible.

How I wish to see mrt going to the different islands too in the future like Semakau, Tekong, Bukom, Jurong Island, etc. There are still so many mega projects Singapore is capable of doing! What a great country! 👏👌👍

    NE2 has most likely been canceled and the station code may be given to Outram Park instead, since there’s no use for the station to be built when the CCL will be serving the same area when the extension opens. We may even see a whole network station code rework in the future as many more infill stations & extensions are being added as well. (might happen right before the next Map Redesign or before the Seletar/Central line finalises.)
