Train service on the North South East West Line (NSEWL) will start at 10am on Sunday, 18 December, instead of 5:30am to allow for a full inspection of tracks and trains on Saturday evening, the Land Transport Authority announced.
The move follows three train disruptions this week which have sparked public outrage. The latest two disruptions were on the North-South line while the earlier one was on the Circle Line.
In a press statement, LTA said that it has directed transport operator SMRT to conduct a full inspection of the tracks and trains after end of revenue service on Saturday night "to determine if any obvious impairment are visible arising from the two incidents resulting in train service disruptions on Thursday and Saturday."
LTA said initial investigations point to misalignment between the train track and "collector shoes" causing a fault in the power rail.
The government agency said it will mobilise its team of engineers to assist SMRT to conduct visual checks of collector shoes assembly for all trains to ensure they are intact.
Concurrently, another contingent of inspection teams will examine the third rail assembly on the NSEWL, it added.
"The teams will comb through the entire third rail assembly. This work will be conducted up to 10am the next morning. The delayed opening hour of 10am is necessary as it is estimated that the team will need at least eight hours to conduct this review," it explained.
Meanwhile, LTA said that to facilitate travel on Sunday morning before 10 am, free bus bridging will be provided.
SMRT said passengers can take the MRT shuttle buses that will run from 5:30am to 10am on Sunday
