Wadi Hana Depot is a future train depot in Johor Bahru serving the Singapore–Johor Bahru RTS Link. The train depot occupies a 2.83-hectare site in Wadi Hana, located around 1 km north of JB Sentral.
Facilities
Wadi Hana MRT Depot is designed for the stabling and maintenance of 8 four-car trains, servicing the Singapore–Johor Bahru RTS Link as its only depot.
History
In the initial plans for the RTS Link (as per 2018 Bilateral Agreement), the RTS Link would share subsystems (e.g. signalling system, rolling stock, communication systems, integrated supervisory control system, etc.) with Singapore’s Thomson-East Coast Line. A light maintenance facility at Bukit Chagar was planned, with the main depot being Mandai Depot.
However, revised plans as formalised in the 2020 Bilateral Agreement called for the RTS Link to be an independent light metro system fully decoupled from Thomson-East Coast Line. All 8 four-car trainsets would be based out of Wadi Hana Depot, with no maintenance facilities in Singapore. The cost of depot construction (~RM500 million) was fully borne by Malaysia, and is expected to offer between 400 to 500 job opportunities for locals.
