Dover MRT station is an elevated Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the East West line (EWL) in Singapore. Located along Commonwealth Avenue West, the station is directly linked to Singapore Polytechnic and serves various residential developments in the area. The station is operated by SMRT Trains.
The station was first planned in 1988 before construction of the station was announced in 1997. The first infill station on the MRT network, contractors had to ensure safety without disrupting services on the EWL, which included building a temporary steel tunnel over the tracks. The station opened on 18 October 2001. Designed by RSP architects, the station has a distinctive arched roof supported by steel columns and floor-to-ceiling glass panels along the concourse.
