History
Contract C851A for the construction and completion of Bartley station was awarded to Wan Soon Construction Pte Ltd at a sum of S$63.5 million in July 2003. This station is being built in tandem with the Outer Ring Road System project which consists of extending Bartley Road to Eunos Road via a viaduct over the part of the underground site of the Kim Chuan Depot. On 13 August 2003, a section of Bartley Road was realigned for the construction of the station.

As part of the project, Upper Paya Lebar Road was rebuilt and opened on 17 January 2010 as an underpass heading towards MacPherson and Paya Lebar. The station opened first on 28 May 2009 along with the rest of Stage 3 of the Circle line.

Before the station opened, Singapore Civil Defence Force conducted the third Shelter Open House at this station on 4 April 2009, together with Bishan and Lorong Chuan stations. It also held an open house for the SMRT staff on 1 May that year. This station was the eastern terminus for the Circle line until Stages 1 and 2 to Dhoby Ghaut opened on 17 April 2010.
