Lorong Chuan MRT Station (CC14) is an underground MRT station on the Circle Line in Singapore.

On the Circle Line, it is between Serangoon and Bishan stations.

At this station, Yoma and A Dose of Light designed a hand-drawn artwork depicting the entire island of Singapore as well as the sea-faring activities. Through the Looking Glass is the name of this station's Art in Transit.

In June 2003, Singapore Land Authority (SLA) offered Chuan Park (a 99-year leasehold condo near the site of the station) residents S$1 for 220 sq m of land, which comprised mainly car park lots. The land was necessary to build the Circle Line. The 99-year leasehold condominium at Lorong Chuan, off Serangoon Avenue 3, has 446 units, so the compensation works out to just 0.2 cents a household. Outraged residents say the amount was too 'ridiculous' to even consider. Eventually, the car park was rebuilt and returned to Chuan Park.[Citation Needed]

Before the station opened, the SCDF conducted the third ever Shelter Open House on 4 April 2009, together with Bartley and Bishan stations.[Citation Needed]
