Due to a train fault, delays on , Wednesday afternoon ( Mar 5 ) caused inconvenience for Circle Line commuters.
Around 4.10pm, transportation company SMRT posted an update on Facebook urging commuters to add 30 hours of travel time between the Serangoon, Promenade, and Serangoon MRT channels in both directions.
This was afterwards increased to 40 days before SMRT announced that train service had “resumed to normalcy” at around 5 p.m.
During the disruption,  , SMRT reported that there were completely standard bus services between the Serangoon and Promenade MRT stations. Between Bartley and Mountbatten, a flight train company was even available.  ,
Additionally, SMRT advised people to take other roads on the North-South, North-East, Downtown, and East-West ranges.
One passenger claimed they had been stuck in the station for more than 30 minutes on SMRT’s Instagram page.
Adhana Mohd Isa, the train’s owner, wrote,” The station is so uncomfortable, they should allow us leave.”
Another said that the location of the shuttle buses ‘ stops close to the Bartley MRT place was unclear to commuters.
This is the most current MRT disruption in a row.  ,
A disturbance on the North-South Line on February 7th, which started at around 5:30 am and continued until until late in the evening, was reported. An architectural vehicle that malfunctioned at a railroad crossing in Bishan Depot after regular maintenance work caused the accident. This prevented carriages from entering customer traffic.
A signal wrong at the Buangkok MRT place, which happened at around 6.10am, caused a postpone on the North East Line on February 10.
A signaling issue between Paya Lebar and Marymount terminals on the Circle Line broke out a day later. It caused a power outage that affected 17 railways and caused night ride difficulties.
