Originally planned to be built later than the other stations of the Woodlands extension, the station's construction was brought forward when plans were revised in November 1992. Completed along with the other Woodlands extension stations on 10 February 1996, Sembawang station has the most number of bicycle stands for cyclists working at Sembawang Shipyard. The number of bicycle parking spaces further increased through the National Cycling Plan in 2010. The station features a kampung-style roof and is also integrated with other transportation modes.
