'''Gul Circle (EW30)''' is an elevated [[Mass Rapid Transit]] (MRT) station on the {{EWL}}.
'''Gul Circle (EW30)''' is a [[Mass Rapid Transit]] (MRT) station on the {{EWL}}. It is the tallest station with a height of 33m above ground level.<ref>[//www.straitstimes.com/news/singapore/transport/story/mrt-tuas-west-extension-soar-above-the-ground-20150203 "MRT Tuas West Extension to soar above the ground"]. Christopher Tan (Straits Times, 3 February 2015).</ref>
 
This station ceiling is 33 metres above ground - about the height of a 10-storey HDB (Housing Development Board) block, the highest elevated station along the MRT network. There are two reasons for the height. First, the 7.5km, $3.5 billion extension goes over the Ayer Rajah Expressway viaduct at the Pan-Island Expressway interchange. Second, a 4.8km portion of the line is being integrated with a road viaduct, which runs below the rail line.
