History

Date Event
17 April 2010 Station officially opens

Nicoll Highway collapse

On 20 April 2004, a section of tunnel being built for the Circle Line collapsed, apparently when a retaining wall used in the tunnel's construction gave way. This occurred near what was to become the Nicoll Highway station, not far from the Merdeka Bridge.

The accident left a collapse zone 150 m wide, 100 m long, and 30 m deep. Four workers were killed, with three more injured and one body which was never recovered. The collapse set back the completion of the Circle Line 1 from 2008 to 17 April 2010.[1]

Artworks

  • Circle Line: Re-Claiming The Peripherals by Khiew Huey Chian
    Four large reliefs above the platform doors showcase overlooked wild plants that play a key role in holding soil together on reclaimed land, which the station was built on. The artwork gives a starring role to these unappreciated plants and aims to remind commuters of how there is value in everything if they just take a closer look.[2]
