Aljunied MRT Station (EW9) is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit station on the East West Line in Singapore. It serves the urban neighbourhood of Aljunied. Its livery is blue.

History

From the start, Aljunied had no physical barriers between the platforms and tracks. In view of many incidents over the years, the Land Transport Authority made the decision in 2008 to install half height platform screen doors for all above-ground stations in phases which is operational on 11 February 2011.[1]
