The station is located between the Clementi MRT Station and the Buona Vista MRT Station, and was opened on October 18, 2001 with test runs from October 13, 2001 to October 17, 2001 when the trains stopped at the station but did not open its doors. The first station to be built over an operating rail line with no disruptions to train services, with the exception that trains drove by the site at a reduced speed during the construction phase, it was also the first elevated station with two side platforms on either side of the tracks, as opposed to having a island platform in all other elevated stations.
