Kembangan MRT Station is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit station on the East West Line in Singapore. The station is along Sims Avenue East, right above the Siglap Canal. It is near several private landed properties and condominiums.

History[]

On 16 March 1997, Monday, at 8.15am, a man in his late 60s leaped down from the platform and is believed to have died instantly as a westbound train approached at 50km/h. The impact threw him against the side of the tracks, and he sustained serious head injuries, a fractured left arm and a severed right foot. He was pronounced dead at the scene at 10.55 am. An SMRT spokesman said that the train was operated through an automated system, and all trains approaching the waiting area would have reduced their speed automatically. By 11 am, the entire area had been cordoned off. None of the 300 commuters on board the train was hurt as it made an emergency stop at 10.17 am. For two hours, all train services between Eunos and Tanah Merah were discontinued to allow cleaners to clear the tracks. Commuters affected were being directed to a nearby bus stop.

On 8 October 2010, at 7pm, passengers on board the westbound train evacuated on Friday evening after smoke was detected in one of the carriages. An announcement was made at Kembangan to wait for the next train.

As with most of the above-ground stations built in the past along the East West Line, it was built without platform screen doors to prevent commuters from falling onto the train tracks. After several successful test at Jurong East, Yishun and Pasir Ris and eventually, installation of the half-height screen doors. Installation started in December 2010 and the platform screen doors started operations on 25 February 2011 with Kallang and also installed high-volume low speed fans (HVLS) fans on 14 July 2012 together with Paya Lebar.

Privacy screens were installed from Kembangan MRT Station to Lorong Mydin to minimise noise impact from residents, from September 2016.
