History
The station was opened on 6 July 1990. On the day of opening, a ceremony was held at the station to mark the completion of the initial MRT network.
This station was built to serve residents living in the then-undeveloped Jurong West New Town and people working in the then mostly-undeveloped Tuas and Jurong Industrial Estate. These areas have since become more developed and the passenger volume has increased, leading to much congestion at this station during peak hours.
However, the condition was improved when the Boon Lay MRT extension was constructed and commenced service on 28 February 2009 with an addition of Pioneer MRT Station and Joo Koon MRT Station. With Pioneer MRT Station serving the western portion of Jurong West New Town and Pioneer Sector, and Joo Koon MRT Station serving Joo Koon, Tuas and Tuas South, Boon Lay MRT station now serves only the eastern portion of Jurong West New Town and the Jurong Industrial Estate and ceased to be the western terminal of the East West Line.
Etymology
This station was named after Boon Lay Way, the street along the station, although Boon Lay Place is located about 1 kilometre away.
