Queensway Node

Discover plans for Queensway Node under the Master Plan 2025, including new homes, jobs, parks and better links to nearby hubs.

Last updated 22 June 2026

URA and the Singapore Institute of Architects (SIA) launched a design competition in September 2024. Architects were invited to form multi-disciplinary teams and submit design proposals for the Queensway node that demonstrate the following attributes for the site:

  • A distinctive and one-of-a-kind destination space

  • Potential to generate a strong sense of community ownership and pride

  • Welcoming, safe and accessible for users from all walks of life

  • Sensitively consider the surrounding context (i.e. Rail Corridor and the surrounding residential estates).

URA received submissions from a total of 20 multi-disciplinary teams, which were assessed based on their concept and vision, uniqueness of place-making characteristics, inclusivity, feasibility and safety.

About Queensway Node

Queensway node is in the heart of Queenstown, surrounded by Tanglin Halt, Mei Chin, and Queensway estates. The site includes a large and covered space beneath the Queensway Flyover, with the Rail Corridor trail running through the site.

Queensway node consists of three key areas: 

A. An elevated earth mound west of the trail, which opens into an expansive, sheltered space under the viaduct structure.
B. The Rail Corridor trail and the sloping sides along it.
C. An open space at the interface between the Rail Corridor, surrounding access points, and the future residential developments.
