List of Singapore MRT stations
The Mass Rapid Transit system is Singapore's principal metro system. Owned by the Land Transport Authority, there are six lines as part of the system: the North–South Line, the East–West Line, the North East Line, the Circle Line, the Downtown Line, and the Thomson-East Coast Line. SMRT operates the NSL, EWL, CCL, and TEL, whilst SBS Transit operates the NEL and DTL. As of 2024, the MRT system spans approximately spread across the six operational lines, the 19th highest in the world.
Studies for a rapid transit system first commenced in 1967, where it was concluded that constructing more roads to meet transport was not feasible due to Singapore's limited land; a rapid transit system would be needed by 1992. Announced in 1982, construction for the MRT began in 1983 with 42 stations, of which 26 would be elevated, 1 at grade, and 15 underground. The MRT opened with stations from Yio Chu Kang to Toa Payoh on 7 November 1987, followed by Novena to Outram Park on 12 December 1987, and Tiong Bahru to Clementi on 12 March 1988, with the system officially launched on the opening of the Tiong Bahru-Cementi stretch. The system was extended to Lakeside and Yishun on 5 November and 20 December 1988, respectively. The east side of the system opened on 4 November 1989 with stations from Bugis to Tanah Merah. On the same day, an extension to Marina Bay was opened. The system was extended to Pasir Ris on 16 December 1989, Choa Chu Kang from Jurong East with the opening of the Branch line on 10 March 1990, and Boon Lay on 6 July 1990.
In February 1991, it was announced that the system would be extended to Woodlands. On 19 January 1992, after being delayed since January 1989 over costs and the prioritisation of the Woodlands extension, it was announced that the NEL would be built. The Woodlands extension opened on 10 February 1996, with the Branch line merged into the NSL. Expo and Changi Airport stations opened on 10 January 2001 and 8 February 2002, respectively, as an extension of the EWL to Changi Airport. Dover station also opened on the EWL as an infill station on 23 October 2001. On 20 January 2003, it was announced that the CCL would be built after merging several planned MRT and LRT lines. The NEL opened on 20 June 2003 from HarbourFront to Punggol stations, with the exception of Woodleigh and Buangkok stations, which would later open on 15 January 2006 and 20 June 2011, respectively.
Station naming
From 2004 to 2017, the Land Transport Authority has conducted various public consultation exercises with Singaporeans across the internet and survey forms as to what new station names should be. However, future lines announced after 23 November 2018 do not have station naming exercises, such as the Jurong Region Line and the Cross Island Line.| Line | Public feedback | Shortlisted for public polling | Finalised date |
