Punggol MRT station.

Punggol is both an underground and an above ground station. The underground section belongs to the North East Line and Cross Island Line (Future). Above ground is the Punggol LRT. This station acts as the Terminus for the North East Line for now, the other being HarbourFront.

### History

Contract 712 for the constructing of Punggol NEL station was awarded to Hock Lian Seng Group at a contract sum of S$85.86 million. The government gave the green light to construct the North East line in 1996. The station was constructed in tandem with the developments of Punggol New Town in 1999. The site of the station was in the middle of the forest, which was eventually cleared to make way for the construction. A track road was created to transport people and equipment to the site.

In 2002, both of the LRT station and the MRT station were completed. Access roads of Punggol Central from Punggol Road were built at the same time. The station opened with the rest of the line in 20 June 2003. After finishing the construction of underground platforms at Punggol (at basement 2), construction began on the Punggol LRT in 2000, which had a middle platform on the LRT side (at level 2). The Punggol LRT station was opened on 29 January 2005 and served only the East Loop before the opening of the West Loop on 29 June 2014.

On 27 February 2020, a power fault along the NEL resulted in service disruptions to the Punggol, Sengkang and Buangkok stations. At 5:36 am, a shuttle train service was provided which operated on a single platform between the Punggol and Buangkok stations. In order to facilitate maintenance functions, the power source to the tracks between the Hougang and Punggol stations was switched off. Additionally, free regular and bridging bus services were provided to serve these stations. The repair works were completed by 11:49 am and usual service along the entire NEL resumed at 12:14 pm. Investigations later revealed that a broken contact wire affected the power source to trains launching from Sengkang Depot, causing the service disruptions.

Pasir Ris

Pasir Ris

**Pasir Ris MRT station** is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the East West line in Pasir Ris, Singapore.

Situated along Pasir Ris Central adjacent to Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, it is the eastern terminus of the East West line and currently the only MRT station within Pasir Ris.

By 2029, this station will be an interchange with the Cross Island line and have the code, CR5. By 2031, this station will be also be the terminus for the future extension to Punggol on the Cross Island line and will have the code CP1.

### History

Pasir Ris MRT station was one of the many elevated stations built in the past with no platform screen doors to prevent commuters from falling off the platform and onto the train tracks. Hence, on 13 August 2009, Pasir Ris MRT station became the first elevated MRT station in Singapore to begin installing half height platform screen doors. On 1 November that year, the platform screen doors were fully completed and began operations.

High-volume low-speed fans were installed above the station's island platform and these began operations on 9 July 2012 together with Simei.

The Land Transport Authority announced on 29 June 2018 that the East West line overrun viaducts will be extended by 150 metres. A new crossover, in conjunction with the implementation of CBTC will allow trains to turnaround quicker. The station's operations will be unaffected by the works as the enhancement works will be done away from the station itself.

The contract 1503 for the partial removal of existing overrun tracks, and construction of new overrun and crossover tracks was awarded to China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation Branch Office Singapore / Gates PCM Construction Ltd (JV) at a sum of S$56.7 million in March 2019. Construction to commence in 2019, with completion in 2023.

### Cross Island

On 25 January 2019, LTA announced that Pasir Ris station would be part of the proposed Cross Island line (CRL). The station will be constructed as part of Phase 1, consisting of 12 stations between Aviation Park and Bright Hill, and is expected to be completed in 2029.

On 10 March 2020, LTA announced that Pasir Ris station serve as the eastern terminus for the proposed Cross Island line (CRL) Punggol extension. The station will be constructed as part of the 7.3 km, Punggol extension, consisting of four stations between Pasir Ris and Punggol, and is expected to be completed in 2031. Construction is expected to start in 2022.

### Incidents

On 22 March 2016, two SMRT maintenance trainees were killed, having been run over by a terminating C151 train reportedly travelling at about 60 km/h at around 11:10 am. They were part of a group of 15 personnel tasked to investigate a possible signalling system fault near the tracks of Pasir Ris station. The incident took place 150m away from the station. This led to a 2.5-hour train service disruption between 11:10 am to 1:56 pm from Pasir Ris and Tanah Merah, and had affected at least 10,000 commuters.

The artwork in the North East line side of the station under the Art in Transit programme is *Memories of Childhood* by Eng Joo Heng. The artwork featured in the Circle line side is called *View of Life* by Sarkasi Said. The author used 18 original batik paintings on cloth which were photographed and printed onto a sheet of glass.
Bishan

Bishan on North South Line

**Bishan MRT station** is a Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) interchange station along the North South line and Circle line in Bishan, Singapore, which the station is named after. It is located along Bishan Road. The name in turn is derived from the Cantonese term for large burial ground, *Peck San Theng* (Chinese: 碧山亭; pinyin: *bìshāntíng*), which literally translates as "pavilions on the green". It was originally planned to name the station San Teng. Opened on 7 November 1987, Bishan station is one of the first five MRT stations on the network.

Located within the town centre area, it is connected to Bishan Bus Interchange and Junction 8. It is also in close proximity to schools such as Raffles Institution and Catholic High School.

## History

Contract 103 for the construction of Teng MRT station was awarded to a Belgian and Singaporean joint venture on 16 December 1983. This $32,882,507 contract, the first involving cut and cover construction awarded by the MRT Corporation, also includes 3.2-kilometre (2.0 mi) of tunnels between San Teng MRT station and Braddell MRT station. On 21 September 1984, the MRT Corporation renamed San Teng station to Bishan station to reflect the name of the new housing estate that was being built around this MRT station.

Bishan MRT station was completed on 23 October 1985 and was one of the first MRT stations on the network to be opened for service on 7 November 1987.

## History

On 28 July 2004, a 31 year old accountant died after falling on the track in front of an oncoming train at this station, disrupting train services on the northbound MRT line for an hour. Another such incident happened to an elderly man on 15 September that year.

On 7 October 2017, water got into a section of the tunnel between Bishan and Braddell MRT stations during a heavy downpour in the afternoon, which disrupted train services along 13 stations on the North South line for several hours. This case of water entering MRT tunnels is believed to be the first time it has affected train service along the NSL. Separately, at about 5.55 pm, a small fire was spotted trackside in the tunnel between the Marina Bay and Raffles Place stations, but it had died down by itself. It is not clear if it is linked to the flood, although electrical short circuits caused by water had sparked tunnel fires before. Train services between Marina South Pier and Newton were restored on the day itself at about 9.20 pm. Train services between Newton and Ang Mo Kio were fully resumed at 1.36 pm the following day after overnight efforts to clear the water in the tunnel, after nearly 21 hours of service disruption, being one of the worst disruptions in SMRT's history. It was revealed that the overflowing in the tunnel was caused by a malfunction in the water pumping system, which has since been repaired.

During the coronavirus epidemic in Singapore, a Singaporean female worker at Bishan MRT station was infected with the virus.

Downtown Line

The **Downtown Line** (**DTL**) is a medium-capacity Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) line in Singapore operated by the SBS Transit company. It currently runs from Bukit Panjang in the north-west to Expo in the east via the Central Area. Coloured blue on the rail map, the line serves 34 stations, all of which are underground. The DTL is the fifth MRT line on the network to be opened and the third line to be entirely underground. It is the second MRT line to be operated by SBS Transit, after the North East Line.

Originally planned as three separate lines, the lines merged into the Downtown Line in 2007 and construction began in three stages. The first section, from Bugis to Chinatown, opened in December 2013, followed by the second section from Bukit Panjang to Rochor opening in December 2015. The third and final stage, from Fort Canning to Expo , opened in October 2017. At 41.9 kilometres (26.0 mi), the DTL is currently the longest underground and automated rapid transit line in Singapore. The train utilises the Bombardier Movia C951 which runs in a three-car formation on the line.

   The line is set to be further extended in the near future. **Stage 3e**, an extension of the line to Sungei Bedok, is under construction and is scheduled to begin operations in 2024, while a new infill, Hume , is planned to open in 2025. An extension to connect with the North South line at Sungei Kadut is also being planned and set to open in the 2030s. When fully completed in 2024, the line will be about 44 kilometres (27 mi) long with 36 stations.

Dover

Dover

Dover is an elevated station on the East West Line. It's the first infill station in the Singapore MRT. It's located near the Singapore Polytechnic.

## History

Dover was announced on 28 July 1997. Adjacent to the Singapore Polytechnic on one side, and undeveloped land on the other, the building of the station was met with reservations by some members of the public over the small area it serviced when construction began in June 1998. The Land Transport Authority, the government department in charge of public transport operations, proceeded with the construction anyway, to serve commuters along Singapore Polytechnic with Dover housing estate. Originally, the station was named Polytechnic in the planning stage. With the change of plans, it was renamed to Dover, after the nearby Dover Road.

Originally, the station was not assigned a station code. On 18 July 2001, with the introduction of the new MRT map, including new station codes, Dover was assigned with EW22. Trains were running slower due to the construction. There were test runs from 13 to 17 October 2001 when the trains stopped at this station but did not open their doors.

## Incidents

On 19 September 2009, a retiree Muhammad Osmail Paiman at 61 was pulled out to safety after he fell onto the MRT tracks at the station. A similar incident happened the next day when a retiree Carolyn Quek was saved by a man. The retiree felt giddy and fell into the tracks.

Little India

Little India

Little India is an underground station on the North East Line and Downtown Line. This station was originally named **Kandang Kerbau**.

### History

The station was first announced when the North East line stations were revealed on 6 March 1996. The announcement of the station was 'greatly welcomed' by the residents and shopkeepers in Little India, who hoped that the station will give the Little India district a 'new lease of life' with more developments around the station.

During the construction, on 7 October 1998, construction workers at the site unearthed human skeletons, alongside discoveries of gold, jewellery, coins and weapons such as machine guns and ammunition. Widely speculated to be massacred victims during the Japanese occupation, the exact origins of the remains remained unknown.

To facilitate the construction, Buffalo Lane, which connects shoppers to the nearby Tekka Centre, was set to be closed. However, the Moulmein Tekka Residents' Committee was concerned that the closure of the road will create inconvenience and road congestion around the station site. Eventually, a metal decking on the road was constructed to allow the public to utilise the road to access Tekka Centre as construction works continued underneath the decking. Although a simple solution, the road decking was needed to be shifted around five times during the construction. As the deck took up a notable amount of space at the worksite, the construction schedule has to be reworked which cost the Land Transport Authority (LTA) about $1 million (US$0.72 million).

Another challenge faced was the construction of the 53-metre (174 ft) underpass from the station to the opposite side of Bukit Timah Road underneath the Bukit Timah Canal. It was initially considered to use the conventional cut-and-cover method to construct the underpass but there were a few problems with the method. The method would involve disrupting the vehicular traffic on Bukit Timah Road, and obstructing the water flow of the canal, which could potentially lead to the flooding of the road, the station and the tunnels. An alternative method – the open-face tunnelling method used by miners – was then employed and was proven successful, without the need to disrupt the traffic on Bukit Timah Road.

Later on, it was opened on 20 June 2003 along with the other North East Line stations.
Bartley

Bartley

Bartley is an underground station on the Circle Line. It's between Tai Seng and Serangoon.

### History

Contract C851A for the construction and completion of Bartley station was awarded to Wan Soon Construction Pte Ltd at a sum of S$63.5 million in July 2003. This station is being built in tandem with the Outer Ring Road System project which consists of extending Bartley Road to Eunos Road via a viaduct over the part of the underground site of the Kim Chuan Depot. On 13 August 2003, a section of Bartley Road was realigned for the construction of the station.

As part of the project, Upper Paya Lebar Road was rebuilt and opened on 17 January 2010 as an underpass heading towards MacPherson and Paya Lebar. The station opened first on 28 May 2009 along with the rest of Stage 3 of the Circle line.

Before the station opened, Singapore Civil Defence Force conducted the third Shelter Open House at this station on 4 April 2009, together with Bishan and Lorong Chuan stations. It also held an open house for the SMRT staff on 1 May that year. This station was the eastern terminus for the Circle line until Stages 1 and 2 to Dhoby Ghaut opened on 17 April 2010.

### Exits

Bartley MRT station has two exits at ground level (A and B), both of which are accessible to the disabled.

About the Singapore MRT
The Singapore MRT is the national rail system of Singapore. It has a daily ridership of 3.4 million as of 2019. The first section of the MRT opened on 7 November 1987, and the network has since grown rapidly in accordance with Singapore's aim of developing a comprehensive rail network as the backbone of the country's public transportation system.

As of January 2020, the MRT network encompasses 203 kilometres (126 mi) of route on standard gauge, with 122 stations in operation, spread across six lines set in a circle-radial topology. The network is expected to double to a total length of almost 400 kilometres (250 mi) by 2040 as a result of ongoing expansion works to its six existing lines and the construction of three new lines. The network is complemented by a small number of local Light Rail Transit (LRT) networks in the suburban towns of Bukit Panjang, Sengkang, and Punggol that link MRT stations with HDB public housing estates, bringing the combined length of the domestic heavy and light rail network to 231.6 kilometres (143.9 mi), with a total of 159 stations in operation.

Featured Article

City Hall opened on the 12 of December, 1987. It was later an interchange with the East West Line. Along with Raffles Place, it was the first interchanges of the MRT. Before the construction, it was proposed to be named **St Andrew's** (from the St Andrew's Catholic Church). During the construction, they had many difficulties. One such issue was that they needed to cross the Singapore River. At that time, the river was polluted, making the soil acidic. The solution was to 'drain' parts of it and build an integral waterproofing tunnel.

The North South Line was opened on the 7th of November 1987, being 6 kilometers long. They had the first 5 stations, including Yio Chu Kang, Ang Mo Kio, Bishan, Braddell and Toa Payoh. It later on extended with Yishun and Khatib on the 20th of December 1988. Other stations like City Hall and Dhoby Ghaut were added the following year. In 1996, the North South Line connected with the Branch Line, forming a complete journey from Jurong East to Marina Bay.

Later in 2014, the line expanded until Marina South Pier.
East West Line

The first segment of what will be the East West line, between City Hall to Outram Park, was opened on 12 December 1987 as part of the North South line. It was extended westwards to Clementi on 12 March 1988. During the construction of the extension to Clementi, roads have to realigned for the new MRT line over Commonwealth Avenue West. The line later extended to Lakeside on 5 November 1988. The 15-kilometre (9.3 mi) eastern extension to Tanah Merah opened on 4 November 1989, and the opening ceremony was attended by then First Deputy Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong. At this point, the East West line was formed, reflecting the operational split from the North South line which has at the same time extended to Marina Bay, and uses a green coloured theme.

The 6-kilometre (3.7 mi) line extension to Pasir Ris station was opened ahead of schedule on 16 December 1989 with a sneak preview beforehand. Boon Lay station opened on 6 July 1990. Dover however, opened on the 18th of October, 2001. It opened between Buona Vista and Clementi, making it the first infill station of Singapore.

On 11 January 2011, the Tuas West extension, an extension of the East West line from Joo Koon to Tuas Link was announced. The extension has a span of 7.5 kilometres (4.7 mi), which spans a twin-tracked MRT viaduct, four above-ground stations and a 26-hectare depot to provide stabling and maintenance facilities for the additional trains that will be bought for the extension and to cater for future expansion of the line. The viaduct is integrated with part of a 4.8-kilometre-long (3.0 mi) road viaduct along Pioneer Road, which will increase the road capacity to cope with anticipated increase in traffic. The stations are Gul Circle, Tuas Crescent, Tuas West Road, and Tuas Link.

Braddell

Braddell

Braddell is an underground station on the North South Line. It serves the Toa Payoh area along with Toa Payoh. It's among the first five stations on the MRT.

## History

This station had construction issues at first. The HDBs (Housing Development Board) were mostly in the area. The station then had to be built under *Lorong 2 Toa Payoh* on the bent of the road. Due to this, two out of six lanes on *Toa Payoh Lorong 1 & 2* had to be closed temporarily. This station was then opened as the first five on the MRT.

## Incidents

1. On 7 May 2008, a robber tried to rob from the 7-Eleven convenience store within the station at 3:10 pm, but was instead locked in the shop by the cashier who dashed out of the shop. The robber could not escape and the Police arrived shortly but the robber threatened to commit suicide. The robber was finally apprehended by the police's taser gun and arrested.
2. On 7 October 2017, water got into a section of the tunnel between Bishan and Braddell during a heavy downpour in the afternoon, which disrupted train services along 13 stations on the North South line for several hours. This case of water entering MRT tunnels is believed to be the first time it has affected train service along the NSL. Separately, at about 5.55 pm, a small fire was spotted trackside in the tunnel between Marina Bay and Raffles Place but it had died down by itself. It is not clear if it is linked to the flood, although electrical short circuits caused by water had sparked tunnel fires before. Train services between Marina South Pier and Newton were restored on the day itself at about 9.20 pm. Train services between Newton and Ang Mo Kio were fully resumed at 1.36 pm the following day after overnight efforts to clear the water in the tunnel, after nearly 21 hours of service disruption, being one of the worst disruptions in SMRT Trains LTD history. It was revealed that the overflowing in the tunnel was caused by a malfunction in the water pumping system, which has since been repaired.

Bukit Panjang LRT

**The Bukit Panjang LRT line (BPLRT)** is a 7.6-kilometre (4.7 mi) automated guideway transit line in the residential town of Bukit Panjang, Singapore. The BPLRT is the only LRT line operated by SMRT Trains. As the name suggests, it serves 13 stations in the neighbourhood of Bukit Panjang and Choa Chu Kang.

The line is the first LRT line in Singapore, and was opened on 6 November 1999 by then Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Tony Tan who later became Singapore's 7th President. As an elevated people mover system, it is fully automated. The line uses Innovia APM 100 C801 and C801A rolling stock supplied by Bombardier, running in a two-car formation.

## History

The idea of Bukit Panjang LRT was first pitched in 1991 before the government announced (in 1994) that it would pilot the system there. Two years later, in 1996, construction began for the Bukit Panjang LRT, along which a few changes were distinguished from the MRT lines:

* It became the first (and at the time, the only) line with a fully automated train with no drivers (driverless trains would later become a prominent role starting from North East Line in 2003)
* There are 13 stations, a loop will be formed between stations for Bukit Panjang
* There was an integrated development at Ten Mile Junction, comprising a station, depot and shopping centre. The station was decommissioned in 2019.

The LRT was planned to run above ground to avoid the road safety issues of trams, and because to avoid obstructing the KTM railway tracks, according to Low Seow Chay. Recalling "terrible" traffic jams at the junction of Woodlands Road and Choa Chu Kang Road during the early 90s, he explained: "The Bukit Panjang residents had trouble accessing Choa Chu Kang and bus interchange including towards the city due to the poor traffic flow." The KJE was opened in 1994, diverting most of the heavy traffic and solving the problem. He also asked for a dedicated bus viaduct to be built to relieve congestion, but the request was rejected since LRT became the only main option.

Back in 1994, then-Transport Minister Mah Bow Tan, told Parliament of the need for "efficient and affordable" public transport, and that the potential of LRT as an internal feeder service was being studied. There are other intentions of the LRT to replace all the feeder buses. Today, residents have LRT and few feeder bus services.

The project, which was contracted to Adtranz, Keppel Corporation and Gammon Construction, was completed on 6 November 1999.

On 5 August 1997, the Land Transport Authority awarded SMRT a licence to operate the LRT due to its experience with the MRT system.

On 10 December 2010, Ten Mile Junction closed due to retrofitting of station, and reopened on 30 December 2011; however, due to the low demand, on 13 January 2019, the LRT station became the first-ever operational train station in Singapore to be permanently closed. Due to this, LRT Service C, which ran from Ten Mile Junction to loop via Senja, ceased operations.
