Fengshan Single Member Constituency was a former single Member Constituency within Bedok, Singapore.

The constituency was created in 1984 from parts of Bedok, Changi & Kampong Chai Chee constituencies. As the population in Bedok grew, the constituency was absorbed into the Bedok Group Representation Constituency (GRC) in 1991.

In 2015, the constituency was carved out from East Coast GRC and became Fengshan Single Member Constituency.

In 2020, it was merged back to East Coast GRC.
