The history of the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system of Singapore commenced with its planning in the 1960s, which finally led to its opening in 1987 with the launch of the 6 km section of the North South Line from Yio Chu Kang to Toa Payoh. At the time, it was the largest infrastructure project undertaken by the country during its early days of independence. The only choices of public transport available in Singapore in the early 60s were buses, taxis and trishaws and the lack of seamless connectivity of the public transport system resulted in long and inconvenient journeys. As of 2022, it now has six lines in operation with a total combined route length of 231 km (144 mi) and 134 operational stations. The Light Rail Transit (LRT) which first opened in 1999 also acts as a feeder service to the MRT network.

The Government has now taken a firm decision to build the MRT. The MRT is much more than a transport investment and must be viewed from its wider economic perspective. The boost'll provide to long term investors' confidence, the multiplier effect and how MRT will lead to the enhancement of the intrinsic value of Singapore's real estate are spin-offs that cannot be ignored." (en) This is like a 20-year affair from conception to delivery. Now the baby is born, to say that I am happy and pleased is an understatement. (en) This is going to be the most expensive single project to be undertaken in Singapore. The last thing that we want to do is to squander away our hard-earned reserves and leave behind enormous debt for our children and our grandchildren. Now since we are sure that this is not going to be the case, we'll proceed with the MRT, and the MRT will usher in a new phase in Singapore's development and bring about a better life for all of us.
