The Downtown Line (DTL) is the fifth Mass Rapid Transit line in Singapore. The 4.3-kilometre (2.7 mi), 6 station Stage 1 of the line opened on 22 December 2013, with Stage 2 on 27 December 2015 and Stage 3 due to open in 2017. The line will connect the North-Western and Central-Eastern regions to the new downtown of Singapore.
The Downtown Line interchanges with the North East Line at Chinatown and Little India, with the East West Line at Bugis, with the Circle Line at Bayfront, Promenade and Botanic Gardens, with the North South Line at Newton, and with the Bukit Panjang LRT at Bukit Panjang.
