🗓️ From 1 January 2022, the Downtown Line (#DTL) 🚇 will transit to the New Rail Financing Framework version 2 (#NRFF2). This will bring DTL to the same version of the NRFF which is applied to most of our other rail lines.
Commuters will continue to enjoy reliable services when the operating model is rebalanced to ensure longer term financial sustainability.

Did you notice changes to the bus routes 🚌 near you and wonder why those routes were amended? 🤔 #PSA They’re all part and parcel of our wider urban transport planning process!
As new rail lines (like #DTL and the recent #TEL) open 🚆 and estates grow 🏡, we have to adjust our bus services to reduce duplication of routes. This ensures prudent use of taxpayer’s monies, while benefiting as many commuters as possible.
Learn about our bus planning process 🚌 and the intricacies behind it in the visuals above!

🚆 #DidYouKnow that the Thomson-East Coast Line (#TEL) intersects with all existing lines in our MRT network?
🤔 However, constructing interchange stations comes with many challenges. For example, to construct the #TEL3 Stevens interchange station, we had to build new stacked tunnels between existing #DTL tunnels with ‘live’ train services running every single day. #EngineeringWOW 🏗💪🏽
👀 Check out this video made by one of our engineers to see how we managed to pull off this seemingly impossible feat!

#PSA Train services on the #DTL are still running today. However, as an added precaution, train services will be temporarily stopped when the controlled detonation of the war relic is about to take place.
The first train passing Cashew - Bukit Panjang stretch (on both bounds) after the detonation will also proceed at a slower speed to check for any track abnormalities.
We seek commuters’ understanding that when this happens, you may have to wait 15 to 20 minutes in the train or at the station before you can continue your journey.
Do pay attention to station/train announcements when you’re travelling on the DTL today.
