The Land Transport Authority (LTA) said that the station box for Hume station was completed as part of the second phase of the DTL.
Works to fit it out as an operational station began in January 2021. Construction has since been completed, and operator SBS Transit will conduct operational testing ahead of passenger service.
Hume station will have two entrances: One facing Upper Bukit Timah Road and the other facing Hume Avenue.
“To enhance first-and-last mile connectivity to the station, covered linkways have been constructed to provide sheltered access to nearby bus stops and pick-up/drop-off points,” said LTA.
The station will also have 60 bicycle parking lots near the entrances.
LTA noted that the station has achieved the BCA Green Mark Gold certification for its green features including a rooftop with solar panels, energy-efficient lighting and a hybrid cooling system.
With the completion of Hume station, the DTL will have 35 operational stations.
