Shorter operating hours along the North South Line (NSL) between Yishun and Newton will take place on selected days of May 2018 to facilitate additional engineering hours for intensive railway maintenance and improvement works. This will involve early closures and late openings along the NSL.
These closures in May 2018 are on top of full-day closures on the Bukit Panjang LRT between April to June 2018.
