Marsiling MRT Station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marsiling MRT Station (NS8) is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit station on the North South Line in Singapore. It serves residents living on the western side of Woodlands New Town. Because of the station's proximity to neighbouring Housing and Development Board apartment blocks, a barrier has been built along the tracks at the side of the station facing these apartment blocks so as to ensure the privacy of the residents.
