LTA noted in a Facebook post on Saturday that poor weather and lightning risks prolonged the service recovery. Thirty-six buses were deployed in total alongside more than 160 additional employees to guide commuters to alternative rail and bus services. Nevertheless, LTA said it has taken note of the feedback from commuters on the areas for improvement.
It concluded that SMRT had responded in accordance with the standard operating procedures on Jun 3, noting that the transport operator"promptly disseminated information" about the disruption and advised commuters on the alternative travel options.
