๐Ÿ›ค๏ธDirections

The direction code of a line is a line code-number combination (Such as EW-1), where the number refers to the terminus as specified by the LTA MRT / LRT Systems Map.

For branch lines such as the Changi Airport Branch (EW-2), the direction that heads towards the terminus (e.g. Changi Airport) uses the line code-number combination (EW-2) whilst the direction that heads towards the main line (e.g. Tanah Merah) has a dash appended to the end of the direction code (EW-2-).

For lines where the terminus number has not been officially announced (e.g. Cross Island Line), placeholder numbers are used instead.

The full list of possible directions can be found at https://api.mrtinfo.sg/js/directions.js.
