Eunos MRT station is an elevated Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the East–West MRT line in Geylang, Singapore. Operated by SMRT Trains, the station primarily serves the Eunos subzone of Geylang as well as the Eunos Bus Interchange.
Plans were first outlined in May 1982, and its construction was announced in October 1983 as part of Phase II of the MRT system. The contract for the station was awarded to a joint venture between the Okumura Corporation and Oh Teck Thye. However, during the construction of the station, the joint venture was terminated due to Oh Teck Thye being put under receivership, with Okumura taking over the project. The station opened in November 1989. In 2011, eleven years after a man died after falling onto the tracks and being run over, platform screen doors were introduced, along with high volume low speed fans in 2013.
The station's roof took inspiration from traditional Minangkabau architecture. Additionally, there are two murals created by local artist Erica Wee as a part of SMRT's heritage-themed Comic Connect public art display. The murals showcases the history of Eunos and Katong/Joo Chiat.
