Layar MRT station
SK LRT · SW6
Layar station in detail
Layar, whose name means "to sail" in Malay, is one of the plainer stops on the West Loop, serving HDB blocks in the Fernvale and Anchorvale area without a mall, hospital or park directly attached to draw extra footfall. It's the kind of station where the description really is just the description: a coffee shop, a run of small shops, residents coming and going. Six stops out from Sengkang, it's late enough on the loop that the ride back toward Sengkang, three stops through Tongkang and Renjong, is noticeably shorter than the ride out.
