Sam Kee LRT station (PW1) is an LRT station on the Punggol LRT Line West Loop in Singapore. The station's main entrance is directly opposite to the Punggol Waterway Park and the SAFRA Punggol clubhouse.[1]

The station has a unique design compared to the other stations as it is not built on a road median.

The name was derived from a former village in the station's surrounding area, which is located at the former Sam Kee area.

History

On 18 February 2016, SBS Transit announced that the station will be opened to provide access to the Punggol Waterway Park and SAFRA Punggol Clubhouse. The station opened on 29 February 2016.[2]
