Peng Kang Hill MRT station is a proposed Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the Jurong Region Line in Western Water Catchment, Singapore.[1][2][3]

It will be the Northern terminus of the West Branch of the Jurong Region Line. Trains entering service at this station will terminate at Choa Chu Kang via Bahar Junction.

On 9 May 2018, LTA announced that Peng Kang Hill station would be part of the proposed Jurong Region line (JRL). The station will be constructed as part of Phase 3, consisting of a total of 7 stations. A 4 station extension to Jurong Pier at Boon Lay and a 3 station extension to Peng Kang Hill from Tawas. It is expected to be completed in 2028.[4]

This station was named after the nearby Peng Kang Hill, in the SAFTI Live Firing Area.

It is located in the Western Water Catchment planning area,[5] serving the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (Yunnan Garden Campus), Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information, and School of Electrical and Electronics Engineering.
