Located underneath Serangoon Road just after the traffic junction with Towner Road and Boon Keng Road, Boon Keng station primarily serves the Boon Keng subzone and more importantly the residents residing in the area. Other than the HDB dwellers, residents of condos such as Eight Riversuites, Regent Residences and The Arcady at Boon Keng also benefited greatly from the convenience. The station was named after Lim Boon Keng, a Chinese physician who promoted health and educational reforms in Singapore.
