Please note that you can only get to Dhoby Ghaut Circle Line station via Bras Basah Circle Line station. You will not be able to access the Circle Line Discovery Open House from Dhoby Ghaut Circle Line station as the station is within the paid areas of the North South and North East Lines
meaning?

It means that the entrance in Dhoby Ghaut Circle line station is probably not ready for public access. So which also means that the train doors of the circle line arriving at Dhoby Ghaut might not open, or if not movement till the division between NSL and CCL.

Thanks. No wonder where is Dhoby Ghaut CCL station.. far from NSL and NEL right?

It will open la. The shutter between paid area and the CCL area will be down.
Just yesterday, as I travelled on CCL, I suddenly realised that the station numbers e.g. CC14 are actually stickers, alike those such at 8 Bartley and 9 Marymount. This means that there will be another station number to all those stations...

I don't think there's a dedicated exit for Circle Line. It'll probably just use the existing exits, that's why we can't go in from there.

We'll be evacuating from the train via the emergency ramp!!!

Where? CCL station?
i felt that they take so long to construct the circle line...i remember when i went to bouna vista mrt four years ago, it was begain construction for CCL, can see that they block roads, digging underground, etc. till now, it is still not completed...it is not one of the stations that is slated to open on apr 4.
paya lebar ccl station was very long as well, not sure of which year they actually started, but i know that it has been a few years coz has been complaining of very bad jams (coz of the road blocks). at least it is opening apr 4.
ccl is good as we dun need to go a big round form the east to north east or north east to central. i heard there is another sort of mrt line that is planned to be built...something to do with marina bay ir? like to find out more...=)

What u trying to say is Downtown Line for the next MRT line after Circle -- that has something to do with Marina Bay IR. Also, you maybe referring to Circle Line Marina Bay Extension (Promendae, Bayfront -- Which is where the IR located, and Marina Bay)

if it involves marina bay, then it is the marina bay extension, where 1 stations will be built after CCL 4 and 5, the stations is Bayfront. for marina bay , i guess they likey be doing the same thing as to bishan station.
bayfront might take longer since they might incorperate DTL together with it, after all DTL promenade is already still under construction.
DTL stage 1 is currently at the city area of SG, the stations involve in stage 1 is bugis,promenade, bayfront, downtown, kreta ayer(somewhere near lau pa sat i think), and laslty chinatown. actual stations fully built from scratch is actually kreta ayer and downtown. while bugis, bayfront promenade nad chinatown will undergo upgrades around the station existing premises to accomade the DTL part of the station.
i heard LTA might be announcing the operator for DTL soon, but when the announcement will be made is still out of my knowledge.
