Longer journey times at 7 Circle Line stations in June, July for tunnel strengthening maintenance​

Maintenance work will be carried out on a tunnel segment that had been found to be "subject to greater pressure", said LTA.
SINGAPORE: Train services at seven stations along the Circle Line (CCL) will be adjusted in June and July because of extra maintenance work, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said on Wednesday (May 24).
Routine inspections by LTA and public transport operators found that a "small segment" of the tunnel between Promenade and Nicoll Highway stations had been "subject to greater pressure", said LTA.
The affected stations are Dhoby Ghaut, Bras Basah, Esplanade, Promenade, Nicoll Highway, Marina Bay and Bayfront. The services will be adjusted over a six-week period.
From Jun 11 to Jul 20, services at the seven stations will only operate from one platform after 9pm, except from Jun 16 to Jun 18, Jun 28 to Jun 29, Jul 1 to Jul 2, Jul 7 to Jul 8, and Jul 14 to Jul 16.
“This will result in longer headways, and commuters will experience additional travel times of up to 30 minutes,” said LTA.
During the single platform service period, shuttle train services will be available between Dhoby Ghaut and Promenade (Shuttle Service A) at 15-minute intervals, and between Marina Bay to Stadium (Shuttle Service B) at 20-minute intervals.

LTA said it assessed that the affected tunnel segment posed no safety risks to CCL train operations.
“Nonetheless, LTA will carry out precautionary maintenance and strengthening works including installation of steel supports to the tunnel rings to ensure the long-term integrity of the tunnel,” said LTA.
“LTA and the operators will continue to regularly monitor tunnels used for rail operations as part of our maintenance regime.”
It advised commuters to plan their journeys ahead of time and use other rail lines or bus services to minimise inconvenience.
They may refer to LTA’s MyTransport.SG mobile application and LTA’s and SMRT’s social media pages for more details.
Posters and station announcements will also be rolled out at all CCL stations and selected stations on alternate MRT lines that interchange with its stations, said LTA.
Station staff will also be deployed at the affected stations.

Also to boost the GDP whenever a major construction project (MRT stations, MRT lines) is undertaken.

Build, demolish, rebuild, that's the only way a totalitarian regime knows how to grow the economy.

that sextion between promenade and nicoll highway is sextremely sensitive. it’s the “cervix” area in the “uterus” of the sg cb. can see the 2 fallopian tubes going east and west from the marina reservoir uterus. one is the sg river and other is the kallang river. the vulva and vagina are where the marina barrage is, almost acting like a barrier or hymen. but it’s already severely devirginized by too much discharge and penetration. thus no longer virgin.

Oh dear, I will tell my grandkids to not use MRT services that run on this circus line, whatever that is. It sounds very dangerous.

Because some one had died during the nicol highway collapse. SG Govt may have long forgotten the pain of the average joe but the dead will not allow karma to be erased

Probably turning the underground system into a makeshift bomb shelter, or water storage facility. Another 40 years before jiu hu gets its water reserve land back which is about the size of sinkie island. And with it, its right to use the water fir local consumption.
