The new station is planned to open by 2025, but MP Low Yen Ling has mentioned that construction work could start in the fourth quarter of 2020, with a veteran MRT contractor claiming that retrofitting of the station for operational service could take between "one and one-and-a-half years". Construction of the station began on 28 February 2021.
