Up to five stations from Admiralty to Yio Chu Kang MRT stations will be closed for parts of three days during the Vesak Day long weekend to facilitate the construction of a crossover track at the upcoming Canberra station.

The 72m-long crossover track, which will be built between Sembawang station and the new Canberra station, will allow trains on the North-South Line to cross from one track to the other, thereby increasing the resilience of the line, the Land Transport Authority said in a statement yesterday. LTA director of rail expansion Chuah Han Leong said it is not viable to have early closure and late opening of the MRT stations as the works involved have to be done in a continuous process over 72 hours.

Canberra MRT Station site visit The Shuttle 10 bus service will serve the route between affected stations when the works are ongoing. The buses will arrive at the stations every one to three minutes.
