Redhill MRT station is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station in Singapore on the East West line (EWL). Operated by SMRT, the station serves nearby landmarks such as the Delta Swimming Complex and Thye Hong Centre. Like other elevated stations on the Tiong Bahru–Clementi stretch, the station feature grilles and a pink colour scheme.
First announced in May 1982 as Alexandra, it was renamed to Redhill in June 1983. The station commenced operations along with the entire MRT system on 12 March 1988 by Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew. Bicycle facilities for the station were expanded in July 1990. Half-height platform screen doors and high-volume low-speed fans were installed by August 2011 and the first quarter of 2013, respectively. In March 2017, a linkway was installed between Redhill and the Enabling Village, a community space for the disabled to be integrated into society.
