Admiralty MRT Station

Admiralty MRT Station (NS10) is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit station on the North South Line in Singapore. The station is located in Woodlands.

History

The government came up with a proposal to build the Woodlands extension line in 1990 with the aim of extending the then existing North-South and East-West lines, thus connecting Choa Chu Kang in the West to Yishun in the North. Admiralty was one of the four stations in the initial proposal which was later expanded to six. Construction commenced in 1991 and the station was opened on 10 February 1996.

Admiralty MRT Station had no physical barriers between the platforms and tracks since the start. Following numerous incidents of commuters falling on the tracks and unauthorized intrusions, the Land Transport Authority made the decision in 2008 to install half height platform screen doors for all above-ground stations in phases. Installtion starts on Oct 4 2011. The screen doors had been live since December 22, 2011 with Marsiling.
