Hillview Station

Hillview MRT Station is an MRT station in the Downtown Line and the Overground. The previous Upper Bukit Timah Station was being built in 1984, and was renovated by blasting the hills between 11 January 2008 and 20 December 2008, to make it two levels - one at the platform (L2), and one at the concourse (L1).

The station serves the Upper Bukit Timah corridor, at the junction between Upper Bukit Timah Road, Dairy Farm Road and Hillview Avenue. The vicinity is largely residential, with commercial buildings such as the Rail Mall and Hillv2 within walking distance.

The section of tracks between Hillview station and Beauty World MRT Station is the longest between any two MRT stations on the Downtown Line. There are basic structural provisions for a possible future station (also known as a "box station") along this section of tracks near Hume Avenue. It is also the place where the adjoining Singapore Overground, as well as the Downtown Line splits the tracks, similar to Jalan Anak Bukit and Upper Bukit Timah Road.
