Tanah Merah MRT Station EW4

Tanah Merah MRT Station (26 July 2017)


Tanah Merah MRT Station (GPS: 1.32725, 103.94662; EW4) is an above-ground station on the East-West Line of the Singapore MRT. The station opened on 4 November, 1989. It is located between the Simei MRT Station (EW3) and Bedok MRT Station (EW5).

The Tanah Merah MRT Station has two island platforms with a total of three tracks. This is an interchange station where the East-West Line forks, with one branch going to Changi Airport.

The Tanah Merah MRT Station was initially not intended to open when the line went into operations in 1990. This is due to low population density in the surrounding neighbourhood. However, public pressure eventually forced the operator SMRT to operate the station. This is the case that repeated itself with the Buangkok MRT Station a decade later.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
