SMRT adds 150 extra train trips from March 22

11 March 2010 / CNA

SINGAPORE: From March 22, commuters can look forward to shorter waiting times and less crowded trains as SMRT rolls out another 150 train trips.

SMRT said these extra train trips are introduced as a result of its regular monitoring of train service capacity and in anticipation of growing train ridership on the North-South and East-West train lines.

This latest round of service enhancements will bring about a reduction of waiting times of between half a minute and two-and-half minutes on weekdays and weekends.

From March 22, passengers who take the weekday early morning northbound train from 6.15am to 7.15am will find their waiting times reduced by 1 to 2.5 minutes.

Passengers heading to the heartlands from the city area on weekday evenings between 6.30pm to 7.00pm need not wait more than three minutes for a train to arrive.

Between 7.00 to 10.30 pm, additional trips will be added at various times to maintain waiting times at no more than five minutes at stations within the city.

This is the sixth time SMRT has enhanced its train services since February 2008.

SMRT said these service enhancements bring the total number of additional train trips to around 1,110. - CNA/vm

Why? Vehicle COE quotas reduced making car very Xpensive so more people will take public transport. SMRT share will continue to go up.
