More about Paya Lebar MRT Station

Paya Lebar MRT Station is a Mass Rapid Transit interchange station on the East West Line and the Circle Line in Geylang Singapore. It is the first MRT station in Singapore that serves as an interchange of both an elevated line and an underground line .Despite its name, the station is not physically located in Paya Lebar, while it was also located near to SingPost Centre. The name is derived from the nearby Paya Lebar Road instead.HistoryPaya Lebar MRT Station opened on 4 November 1989, serving the East West Line.On 4 April 2007, a man died after being hit by a train along the East West Line sector at about 10.20 am. Police said the victim, a 52-year old Chinese, was pronounced dead by paramedics at 10.45 am. East-bound services were disrupted from Aljunied to Eunos for 41 minutes but resumed by 11.02 am.On 17 April 2010, the Circle Line platforms opened, shortening the travelling time from the station to Bishan where commuters can transfer to the North South Line, to 13 minutes.As with most of the above-ground stations along the East West Line, the station was built without platform screen doors. Installation of half-height platform screen doors which prevent commuters from falling onto the train tracks started on 28 October 2010 and commenced operations on 11 January 2011 with Bedok. The Circle Line side of this station has been equipped with full-height platform screen doors since the operations started on 17 April 2010. It is the first underground MRT station to have a middle platform, and is only usable until 14 January 2012, where short-trip service between HarbourFront & Paya Lebar were extended to Marina Bay. The middle platform is only usable when trains are withdrawn after evening peak.
