[edit] Platform Screen Doors
As with most of the stations along the East West Line, it was initially built without Platform Screen Doors to prevent commuters from falling onto the train tracks. After several successful test at Jurong East, Yishun and Pasir Ris and eventually, installation of the half-height screen doors started on 14 August 2010 and operations commenced on 1 October 2010.[1]
