SINGAPORE - A track fault caused delays of up to 25 minutes for early morning commuters on the North-South MRT line between Choa Chu Kang and Yishun stations on Monday.
Transport operator SMRT first announced the delay in a tweet at 5.50am, when it told commuters to expect an additional travel time of 10 minutes from Marsiling to Admiralty stations towards the direction of Marina South Pier. In subsequent updates, commuters were advised to add 15 minutes and later 25 minutes to their travel time between Yishun and Choa Chu Kang stations. Free regular bus and free bridging services were available between the stations. Commuters were also advised to take alternative lines or the Thomson-East Coast Line to the city area.“We apologise to all commuters who were affected this morning,” it said in a tweet.
In a Facebook post at 7.22am, SMRT said a track fault had occurred near Woodlands station on the NSL just before the start of service. “Train services are available, with trains moving at a slower speed between Choa Chu Kang and Yishun stations,” said SMRT, adding that free regular bus services are also available between those stations in both directions.
