Haw Par Villa MRT and the Circle Line from The Hillshore

The nearest station to The Hillshore is Haw Par Villa on the Circle Line, which the developer’s brochure puts about five minutes away on foot. In July 2026 the line it sits on became a complete loop.

The Walk from The Hillshore to Haw Par Villa

Haw Par Villa station (CC25) sits beside Pasir Panjang Road, south-east of the site and next to the Haw Par Villa gardens it is named after. On OneMap its Exit A is about 470 metres from the development in a straight line, and the station centre about 510 metres. The route follows Pasir Panjang Road, so there is no climb over Kent Ridge to reach the train.

Kent Ridge station (CC24) is the next stop north, about 870 metres from the site in a straight line but on the far side of the ridge, so most residents will use Haw Par Villa for both directions.

The Circle Line Loop and The Hillshore

On 12 July 2026 the Land Transport Authority opened Circle Line Stage 6, adding Keppel, Cantonment and Prince Edward Road stations between HarbourFront and Marina Bay. With that link in place the Circle Line runs as a single loop of 33 stations and 12 interchanges, and LTA notes that Pasir Panjang and Kent Ridge gain shorter trips to the city centre.

For a resident of The Hillshore the practical change is simple: Marina Bay is now eight stops away on the same train, through Keppel and Prince Edward Road at the southern edge of the CBD, where before the journey meant a change at HarbourFront or Buona Vista.

Stops along the Circle Line, with Stage 6 in service from 12 July 2026 (LTA).

Interchanges Within Reach of The Hillshore

Three stops north, Buona Vista connects to the East-West Line for Jurong and the east; four stops south, HarbourFront connects to the North East Line and to VivoCity and the Sentosa link; and at Marina Bay the North-South and Thomson-East Coast Lines meet the loop. The developer’s brochure also counts the National University Hospital one stop away and one-north two stops away, which suits residents working on the research campuses.

For drivers, the brochure puts West Coast Highway about two minutes away and the Ayer Rajah Expressway about seven. The location page maps the station and the roads, and the science parks guide covers the campuses along the line.
