History[]
The station opened on 18 January 2003, along with the rest of the Sengkang LRT line East Loop.[1]
On 21 February 2020, transport operator SBS Transit launched made a police report after it was reported that the lift buttons at the station were spat on. SBS Transit has condemned the incident as an "abhorrent act" and "more than mischief". The lift has already been cleaned and disinfected. This incident was significant especially in light of the COVID-19 virus outbreak in Singapore, and the importance of good personal hygiene and being considerate to others.[2][3] Three male teenagers were being investigated by the police related to the incident.[4]
