Marine Parade MRT Station (TE26; GPS: 1.30411, 103.90685) is an underground Mass Rapid Transit station on the Thomson–East Coast Line (TEL) in Singapore, located beneath Marine Parade Road and serving the bustling town centre of the Marine Parade planning area with its shopping malls, eateries and residential neighbourhoods. This modern station blends convenience, connectivity and local heritage for residents and visitors alike.
The station is situated at 101 Marine Parade Road, Singapore 449971, underneath the busy Marine Parade town centre. 1 It lies within the Marine Parade Planning Area – part of Singapore’s Central Region – and falls in the traditional Postal District 15, covering the Katong, Joo Chiat and East Coast neighbourhoods. 1
The station was announced as part of the TEL’s eastern extension (Stage 4) and was constructed under Contract T307 awarded in 2015. 4 Although originally planned to open in 2023, its opening was delayed and the official commencement of operations took place on 23 June 2024. 2
Marine Parade MRT Station is served by the Thomson–East Coast Line (TEL) with station code TE26. 1 Travelling along the line: the preceding station (towards Woodlands North) is TE25 Tanjong Katong, and the following station (towards Bayshore) is TE27 Marine Terrace. 3
While the station does not have an integrated bus interchange, multiple bus stops are located adjacent to the station exits (e.g., Bus Stop 92049 at Marine Parade Road) serving many east-coast and city-bound routes. 4
The station sits amid a lively commercial and residential zone: popular landmarks such as Parkway Parade mall, i12 Katong, and the Marine Parade Promenade stretch are all within walking distance, making the station a convenient access point for shopping, dining and seaside leisure on Singapore’s east coast. 1
One of the distinctive features of Marine Parade Station is its underground bicycle parking facility which offers 364 parking lots and a dedicated bicycle kiosk — part of Singapore’s efforts to integrate cycling with public transport. 2
Another point of note: the station box also serves as a civil-defence (CD) shelter, similar to other TEL Stage 4 stations, built with reinforced structure, blast doors and emergency systems for national contingencies. 1
With its modern design, strategic east-coast location and integration with the local town centre, strong Marine Parade MRT Station both enhances connectivity and supports one of Singapore’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. Whether commuting to the city or exploring the Katong/Joo Chiat area, the station is a key node in the MRT network and a welcome addition to the Marine Parade townscape.
