Potong Pasir MRT Station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Potong Pasir MRT Station (NE10) is located on the North East Line, Singapore. The station is located in the Potong Pasir area and on the southern end of Upper Serangoon Road and Potong Pasir Avenue 1. The station is also located near the Saint Andrew's Village, a mega cluster of schools from the Saint Andrew's family of schools.
The intended name for the station was actually Sennett, mainly because of political reasons, as it was in an opposition held ward. It was also rumoured to continue staying closed when the North East line opened. However it eventually opened, and the station was renamed Potong Pasir as it was claimed "the name made more sense". There is another Sennett Estate in the eastern part of Singapore and is located along Upper East Coast Road.
