SINGAPORE: Commuters in Singapore are facing significant transportation delays today due to a major disruption on the East-West Line, one of the city’s key MRT routes.

Train services have been suspended between Boon Lay and Queenstown MRT stations, affecting both eastbound and westbound journeys for the remainder of the day (Wednesday, September 25). While shuttle train services are being introduced to cover some stations, critical sections of the line, particularly between Jurong East and Buona Vista, will not be served, leaving many travelers stranded.

The disruption was triggered by a technical fault in an eastbound train near Clementi station at approximately 9 AM, causing chaos during the busy morning rush hour. Commuters are advised to expect delays and consider alternative modes of transport, as the situation is likely to lead to crowded platforms and longer wait times throughout the day.

In light of the disruption, local authorities are working tirelessly to restore full services and minimize the impact on commuters. Stay tuned for live updates on this developing situation as we continue to monitor the MRT services and provide information on alternative transportation options available for those affected.
