Map of Station Exits
The station will have 2 platforms, located in an island platform arrangement. Like all underground stations on the Singapore MRT, it will have full-height platform screen doors to contain air conditioning, and for safety purposes. These will be manufactured by GE Transportation, like all doors on the Thomson–East Coast line. There will be a mezzanine area of the station, where ticket machines, faregates, an information booth, and toilets will be located. Of the two exits this station will have, one will be built along Orchard Boulevard, with another on Grange Road next to the Tourism Court.
This station was first announced on 29 August 2012.
On 15 August 2014, LTA announced that Orchard Boulevard station would be part of the proposed Thomson East-Coast line (TEL). The station will be constructed as part of Phase 3, consisting of 13 stations between Mount Pleasant and Gardens by the Bay, and is expected to be completed in 2021.
