SINGAPORE: Train service at Pasir Ris MRT station was delayed twice during morning peak hours on Thursday due to signalling faults on the track near the station.
SMRT said the first delay happened at 7.06am and lasted for about 14 minutes.
It said commuters were informed of the delay through announcements and notices at the station, as well as Twitter.
SMRT staff were on-site to rectify the track fault immediately.
Some trains were turned around at Tanah Merah and Tampines to maintain westbound service on the unaffected stretch between Tampines and Joo Koon stations.
The fault was fixed at about 7.20am.
But it recurred at about 8.20am and was rectified at 8.50am.
SMRT said passengers at Pasir Ris MRT Station experienced general delay of four to five minutes due to the faults and the volume of passengers using the system during the morning peak hours.
It said commuters were kept updated of the situation through announcements at the stations and trains, Traffic Watch on the radio stations and Twitter.
SMRT apologised for the inconvenience caused.
