SINGAPORE — The Circle Line (CCL) and Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) will run on shorter operating hours on some days due to rail expansion works from October 2023 to May 2024.

A series of works will be done to integrate Stage 4 of TEL and Stage 6 of CCL with the existing network, which require temporary service adjustments on these lines, said the Land Transport Authority and transport operator SMRT in a joint news release on Thursday .

As such, one platform each at Telok Blangah and HarbourFront stations will be temporarily closed from Jan 20 to May 24 next year. During this period, passengers can use the 11 public bus services —10, 30, 57, 61, 93, 97, 100, 143, 166, 188 and 963 — as an alternative to the Circle Line trains. For the single platform service, about 43,000 commuters, on average, travel from Labrador Park to HarbourFront stations per day, LTA spokesperson added.

“However, for safety and to avoid impacting service on the rest of the CCL, some works can only be carried out after CCL service hours, including testing and commissioning of the new connection,” said the spokesperson.
