Oasis LRT station
Oasis LRT station is an LRT station on the Punggol LRT line East Loop in Singapore, located at Punggol Drive between the junctions of Edgefield Plains and Edgedale Plains. It was opened on 15 June 2007, more than two years after the rest of the line opened (except for Damai) on 29 January 2005 after more residents had moved into the HDB flats adjacent to the station. Previously, residents in the area had to take a ten minutes walk to the nearest bus stop, as there were no bus services serving the station's vicinity.[1][2][3] It is located next to Oasis Terraces and Punggol Polyclinic.
