Marymount MRT station (CC16) is an underground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the Circle Line in Bishan, Singapore.

Located underneath the traffic junction of Marymount Road, Marymount Lane and Bishan Street 21, this station provides MRT access to residents living in the western part of Bishan New Town, as well as students and staff of the nearby Raffles Institution.

History

On 10 February 2004, Marymount Road was temporarily closed for realignment works. The options for station names are - 'Marymount' and 'Shunfu', in the end Marymount was chosen.

This station was a terminus for the Circle Line until the opening of the HarbourFront portion of the Circle Line on 8 October 2011. Before the future Upper Thomson opens in 2020, this station is the nearest MRT station within the Thomson area.
