Early Closure, Late Opening of North South & East West Line (August & September 2018)

Shorter operating hours along the North South Line (NSL) between Bukit Gombak and Jurong East, as well as along the East West Line (EWL) between Dover and Pioneer will take place on selected days of August & September 2018 to facilitate additional engineering hours for track maintenance and renewal works along the affected sectors. This will involve early closures and late openings along the NSL and EWL.

These closures in August & September 2018 are on top of Late Opening of Bukit Panjang LRT on Sundays between July to October 2018.
