20 May 2019 Station closed due to the construction of Canberra station[1]

Construction

Contract 402 consists of viaducts between Yio Chu Kang and Yishun, as well as the Sembawang (now Khatib) and Yishun stations, was awarded to a French company, GTM Coignet, in November 1985.[2]

Incidents

On 22 December 2001, the Singapore embassies attack plot was discovered, and had included plans to bomb this station at several points, including the sewers near the station. This was brought up in a debate during a session of the parliament, during which new security measures were proposed, especially on the MRT system itself.[3]

On 19 January 2008 at about 3.30pm, a call was made from a public telephone at the MRT Station alleging that there was a bomb at the station.[4] Police arrested a 31-year old Chinese man believed to be linked to the crime on 23 February that year at 4pm. The man was charged for transmitting a false message that makes reference to a bomb.[5]
