Debated in Parliament on 4 Feb 2026.
Mr David Hoe asked the Acting Minister for Transport whether LTA will (i) consider improving pedestrian flow and safety at the Clementi MRT station link bridge to Clementi Mall through near-term measures given significant peak-hour foot traffic build-up and (ii) make longer-term infrastructure upgrades to the link bridge and access routes to increase capacity, given anticipated higher footfall with Clementi’s future Cross-Island Line interchange.
Two additional entrances and link bridges had already been built at Clementi station in 2015 to relieve pedestrian crowding along the two existing link bridges. During peak hours, service ambassadors are deployed to guide commuters and facilitate safe pedestrian flow along the link bridge to Clementi Mall.
As part of the Cross Island Line project, the Land Transport Authority plans to replace the existing link bridge with a new, wider link bridge to meet the anticipated higher footfall.
