Singapore’s extensive rail network spans some 200km, this is set to grow to 360km. We are on course to expand our rail network by a further 100km over the next decade, with 8 in 10 households within 10 minutes walk of a train station, to better connect people to places.

As a builder, LTA plans, develops and invests in the construction of the extensive rail network. Our goal is to meet the evolving needs of commuters as Singapore develops.

As a regulator, LTA works closely with public transport operators to offer commuters safe, reliable and comfortable train rides. All existing lines have been moved to the New Rail Financing Framework (NRFF). This means LTA is now the owner of the rail operating assets. We will be able to ensure more timely investments in capacity expansion, replacement and upgrading of the assets. Rail operators can also focus on providing reliable and well-maintained rail services. Together, this will offer commuters higher quality rides and a system that is more responsive to their needs.
