What Tuas is
Tuas is the westernmost planning area on URA's map, in the West Region. At 47.70 square kilometres it is the third-largest planning area after the Western Water Catchment and the North-Eastern Islands, and much of it is industrial land; it also takes in the site of the new Tuas Port. SingStat recorded 80 residents in June 2026; the age and dwelling breakdowns are all published as nil or negligible.
Rail
Four East-West Line stations have exits inside the boundary.
| Station | Code | Line |
|---|---|---|
| Tuas Link | EW33 | East-West Line |
| Tuas West Road | EW32 | East-West Line |
| Tuas Crescent | EW31 | East-West Line |
| Gul Circle | EW30 | East-West Line |
These are the stations of the line's Tuas extension: Gul Circle, Tuas Crescent, Tuas West Road and Tuas Link, the western terminus. Gul Circle has one exit in Tuas and one in neighbouring Pioneer. For workers, the line gives a direct ride to Jurong East, Buona Vista and the city.
Facilities
MOH's June 2024 CHAS list places four clinics in Tuas. There is no MOE school, NEA hawker centre, polyclinic, community club or NParks park in the planning area on the agencies' lists, which is consistent with land used for work rather than homes.
Where people who work here live
The closest large residential areas are Jurong West and Jurong East, further east along the East-West Line. Jurong West, with 250,890 residents, is the most populous planning area in the West Region.
Why it has a page
SingStat publishes a resident figure for every URA planning area. Tuas is included here so that the full set of 55 adds up to the national total, and so that anyone looking up the area knows what is, and is not, there.
