Eunos Link is a key arterial road in Singapore, stretching about 1.3 km in length. It connects Hougang Avenue 3 in the northwest to Jalan Eunos in the southeast, forming an important link between residential and industrial zones. The road lies in Postal District 14 and serves as a boundary separating the Geylang Planning Area in the west from the Bedok Planning Area in the east. Its proximity to both residential estates and industrial hubs makes it a busy and multifunctional thoroughfare.
Eunos Link was constructed in the mid-20th century, during a period of rapid urbanisation in eastern Singapore. The road was named after Mohamed Eunos bin Abdullah (1876–1933), a prominent journalist and politician who played a vital role in advocating for the Malay community in colonial Singapore. The name "Eunos" has since been associated with various places in the eastern part of the island, including Eunos Crescent and Eunos MRT Station.
The road itself was developed to provide improved connectivity between the growing suburban estates in the east and the industrial areas around Ubi and Kaki Bukit. Today, it continues to play a significant role in supporting traffic flow between residential, commercial, and industrial zones.
The name Eunos is pronounced as Yoo-nos, with the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) rendering as /ˈjuːnɒs/. The name pays tribute to Mohamed Eunos’s lasting legacy in Singaporean history.
Eunos Link has a mixed character, with portions flanked by industrial developments and others closer to residential neighbourhoods. On the Geylang side, the road borders automotive workshops, light industrial units, and warehouses, while the Bedok side features residential precincts and community amenities. The road is wide and typically busy, with a combination of commercial traffic from industrial vehicles and private cars heading towards the central and eastern regions of Singapore.
The area is also well known for its utilitarian, practical vibe—an area where commerce and everyday living intersect.
While Eunos Link is more functional than picturesque, there are several points of interest in its vicinity:
The property market around Eunos Link reflects the mixed character of the road. As of early 2025, HDB resale flats in nearby estates such as Ubi and Eunos average around S$520,000 for a 4-room flat (about 1,000 sq ft / 93 sq m)1. Private condominiums, such as those closer to Jalan Eunos, typically range from S$1,500 to S$1,800 per sq ft, meaning a 1,200 sq ft (111 sq m) unit could fetch between S$1.8 million to S$2.1 million2. Rental rates for such properties hover between S$3,500 and S$4,500 per month.
Compared to central Novena or Bishan, real estate along Eunos Link is relatively more affordable, appealing to families and working professionals who value proximity to industrial workplaces and easy access to the Downtown Line.
The closest MRT station to Eunos Link is Ubi MRT Station (DT27) on the Downtown Line. This provides seamless travel towards both the city centre and the eastern suburbs.
Multiple bus stops line Eunos Link, with services connecting commuters to destinations such as Bedok MRT Station, Eunos MRT Station, and central areas of Singapore. Bus services include both trunk and feeder routes, making the road well-integrated into the national public transport system.
One fun fact about Eunos Link is that despite its relatively short stretch of just 1.3 km, it serves as a crucial connector between two significant planning areas. It is also well-known among motorists as a convenient route to workshops and automotive service centres, making it popular with car owners across Singapore.
