Fajar LRT station is an elevated Light Rail Transit (LRT) station on the Bukit Panjang LRT line in Bukit Panjang, Singapore, along Fajar Road. It serves the residents of HDB flats located along the northern part of Bukit Panjang Ring Road. The station is right next to Fajar Shopping Centre and near the Chi Hock Keng (Buddhist) Temple. Etymology This station is located along Fajar Road. Fajar means "dawn" in Malay. History Before (and during) the construction of Fajar Station, residents of this part of Bukit Panjang were served by a bus service that called on the bus stop just next to the Fajar Station, namely the late TIBS Service 179. This bus brought passengers around Bukit Panjang and towards the Choa Chu Kang MRT/LRT station where they could transfer easily to the train system mentioned. TIBS Service 179 had been withdrawn on 26 December 1999 as part of BPLRT rationalization. Now, two other daily services continues to run along Fajar LRT Station, these are service 922 and 972. Incidents A man was found dead on the LRT tracks at Fajar station at about 1 a.m. on 24 March 2017. In an emailed statement, SMRT said it was alerted that a body was spotted on the tracks at the station after the last train in service left the platform. He was the third person to be killed along the Bukit Panjang LRT line since the line commenced operations in 1999.
