The future Changi Airport Terminal 5 could be linked to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal to make multi-modal journeys convenient, as part of bigger plans to transform the area around the airport and grow air traffic.

Other ideas being explored include a live airport environment for aviation-related research and development, and developing the area around T5 to offer work and living spaces. A waterfront district with recreational and tourism potential is also being considered.
