Eunos MRT Station (EW7) is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit station on the East West Line in Singapore. It is located next to the Eunos Bus Interchange.
Contents |
[edit] Design
The station is designed with a traditional Malay roof structure and shape, but using modern materials such as steel beams, similar to that of the Eunos Bus Interchange. This is to provide a sense of identity to the area, as Eunos bus interchange lies close to Geylang Serai and the Malay Village.
This station, as well as Tanah Merah station, has a different style of architecture from other stations on the eastern part of the East West Line which feature white round semicircular roofs.
[edit] Platform Screen Doors
As with most of the above-ground stations along the East West Line, it was initially built without Platform Screen Doors to prevent commuters from falling onto the train tracks. The installation of Half-Height Platform Screen Doors started on 5 October 2010 and operations started on 16 December 2010.[1]
