The Bukit Panjang LRT Line is a 7.8-kilometre (4.8 mi) automated guideway transit line opened on 6 November 1999 as part of Singapore's LRT system. As an elevated people mover system, it is fully automated, and the project was contracted to Adtranz, Keppel Corporation and Gammon Construction. The line uses Innovia APM 100 rolling stock supplied by Adtranz (now Bombardier). A complete loop journey on the line (excluding Ten Mile Junction LRT station) takes 28 minutes.

There are three services on the line: A and B terminate at Choa Chu Kang, and C ends at Ten Mile Junction.

All stations, except Choa Chu Kang and Ten Mile Junction, have two facing side platforms. Choa Chu Kang has an island platform, similar to most Singapore MRT stations, while Ten Mile Junction has only a single platform and is the only station with platform screen doors (supplied by Horton Automatics). Bukit Panjang and Choa Chu Kang have half-height platform barriers. Choa Chu Kang station will have two additional platforms and a new set of fare gates to ease crowding during peak hours. Between 2016 and 2017, they will install Half-Height Platform Barriers to the remaining 11 LRT stations.

As of April 2017, the Half-Height Platform Barriers are installed at Choa Chu Kang, South View, Keat Hong, Teck Whye, Phoenix, Petir, Pending, Bangkit, Fajar, Segar, Jelapang, Senja and Bukit Panjang station.
