SINGAPORE: Seven MRT stations, from Khatib to Novena, will close earlier and open later on some days in May for maintenance and improvement works along the North-South Line (NSL), train operator SMRT announced on Thursday (Apr 19).
In a news release, SMRT said the stations will close at around 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays and open later at around 8am on Saturdays and Sundays in the month.
The additional hours will more than double the available time for engineering teams to intensify maintenance and accelerate rectification works along the NSL’s MRT tracks, the train operator said.
It added that during these planned closures, commuters can still travel on the NSL between Jurong East and Yishun MRT stations, and between Newton and Marina South Pier MRT stations.
