Prince Edward Road MRT Station (CC32) is an underground station located along the Circle Line (CCL) Stage 6. It is built along Shenton Way, near the junctions of Keppel Road an Palmer Road, bringing rail connectivity to the Shenton Way business district, nearby places of worship, and future developments in the Keppel area.

The station is named after the nearby Prince Edward Road. The Keppel Port area south of the station is planned to be redeveloped after 2030, once the container port is moved to Tuas. The future Greater Southern Waterfront region, currently under planning, will provide more options for city living when it is developed in the future.

As the station box lies underneath the old Shenton Way Bus Terminal, the bus terminal was relocated to a new site further north to facilitate construction works. The station is targeted for completion and opening in Year 2026. The station is also constructed with a turnback tunnel northeast of the station.

Prince Edward Road MRT Station has four platforms in which only two are utilized by the Circle Line for trains traveling in either direction. The other two unused platforms are provisions for a future MRT Line. Arranged in two island platforms spanning two underground floors, the future cross-platform transfer layout allows for quicker transfer between lines and optimized commuter flow based on their direction of travel.

A set of turnback tunnels, 350m long, are constructed to the east of Prince Edward Road MRT Station, facilitating the turnaround of trains in the Circle Line loop service.
