The RTS Link will run four kilometers between Woodlands North Station on the Thomson East Coast Line (TEL) of the MRT in northern Singapore and Bukit Chagar Station in Malaysia. The contract is the first of the two civil works by LTA on the Singapore side. Penta-Ocean Construction will be responsible for the construction of Woodlands North Station, the tunnels, and the customs, immigration, and quarantine building.

Construction will begin sometime between January and March 2021 and will be completed by the end of 2026. The remaining works including the viaduct are scheduled to be awarded in January through March next year.
