Fault on North-South Line causes delays; service at several stations affected for over 5 hours
SINGAPORE: Train service along a section of the North-South Line was disrupted for about six hours on Wednesday due to a track point fault - a glitch affecting a switch that allows trains to change tracks.
Commuters were initially told to add 10 minutes to their travel time between the two stations."Free regular bus and bridging bus services are also available between those stations," SMRT said. A point machine is used to control train movements at rail junctions when trains move from one track to another.
