When this station is ready, it will be the third station in Singapore that serves both an above ground line and an underground line after Paya Lebar and Buona Vista together with Expo.There is no paid link between the East West Line station and the Downtown Line station, meaning that commuters are required to tap out and then tap in again when transferring between the two lines from Exit A to D .
