Eunos MRT station

Eunos MRT station is an elevated Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the East–West Line in Geylang, Singapore. Operated by SMRT Trains, the station primarily serves the Eunos subzone of Geylang as well as the Eunos Bus Interchange. Plans for the station were first outlined in May 1982, and its construction was announced in October 1983 as part of Phase II of the MRT system. During construction, one of the contractors, Oh Teck Thye, was put under receivership, resulting in its joint venture with the Okumura Corporation to be terminated and Okumura taking over the project. The station opened on 4 November 1989. Platform screen doors were introduced in 2011, along with high volume low speed fans in 2013. The design of the station's roof took inspiration from traditional Minangkabau architecture. Additionally, there are two murals created by local artist Erica Wee as a part of SMRT's heritage-themed Comic Connect public art display. The murals showcase the history of Eunos as well as Katong and Joo Chiat.
