SINGAPORE: Train service on the North-South Line (NSL) between Ang Mo Kio and Marina South Pier stations was disrupted on Saturday evening (Oct 7).
This is due to a track fault at Bishan station, announced transport operator SMRT in a tweet at about 5.35pm. It added that the fault is not linked to the new signalling system on the line.
The disruption initially affected three stations – from Bishan to Toa Payoh – but in an update about 30 minutes later, SMRT said there was no train service between Ang Mo Kio and Marina South Pier stations. That’s nearly half the stretch of NSL.
The transport operator added that free regular bus and bridging services are available. It also said commuters should consider alternative transport.
