Stages 1, 2 and 3 of the Circle Line are completed. It is only Stages 4 and 5 that are left.
Most of the cunstruction are not very disruptive, but some are rather messy. For example, the Farrer Road station. It is situated right under the junction of Farrer Road and Empress Road. Farrer Road is part of the Outer Ring Road System (ORRS) and is a major road, usually conjested during the peak hours.
One thing good about construction in Singapore is that roads are rarely closed during construction. The area surrounding the junction of Farrer Road and Empress Road is already built up and there is little free space. However, the junction kept shifting location from day to day, depending on the construction that needs to be done, but the road was never closed.
Similarly for the Holland Village station, no roads there were closed and the configuration was kept, though the roads were always realigned.
