NEL Delay today.. Taken at Sengkang

Train dwell time at every station: 5mins

All late for school and work. Delays up to 50 mins, people at Sengkang, Hougang, Serangoon can't board the train in the morning. No choice but to take to Punggol and u-turn back. I was expecting bridging bus svcs, but nothing. Lucky my ride was free.

Stupid SBS Transhit, disconnecting people. Cut and withdrawn svcs, in the end train fail.

NEL Delay today.. Taken at Sengkang

There IS bus bridging services, FYI.
But it only started when the second signalling fault was discovered.
Still, SBST does a better job at handling situations like this than SMRT.
Better, re-edit your insult... Later the company can sue...
Like what I did for the citaros... Kena edited.

Those are SBST die hard fans. If NEL and PGL/SKG LRT brokedown, they will keep quiet. If CCL/NSL/EWL brokedown, they will open new thread and start to make noise.

Bridging service only in the evening, not many people rushing back home. Try to be in my shoes. Stuck in Sengkang Station for more than half an hour. Imagine if students got exam on that day, confirm fail.

Go look at news yesterday, got one uncle complaining, no bridging service in the morning. SBST got many spare buses, no bridging service in the morning.

Times are bad.

While a welcomed improvement, commuters Channel NewsAsia spoke to gave SBS Transit the thumbs down for the way the delay was handled.

They still raised questions over the announcement of the delay earlier in the day.

The morning peak-hour crowd at Hougang Station was told to expect an average of 20 minutes' delay for service in both directions.

But for some commuters, the wait was as long as 50 minutes!

Over at Chinatown Station, there were similar frustrations that the wait was longer than announced.

"If it's going to take more than 10 to 15 minutes, just be honest about it so I can make an informed decision and not be so late...Don't keep promising it's going to be 10 or 15 minutes (delay) and it turned out to be 40 minutes," said a commuter.

Another commuter said: "I am from Sengkang and it took me like one hour and 20 minutes" compared to the usual "30 minutes".

One passenger, Mr Toh told MediaCorp that he was late for work and ended up leaving his job earlier than planned.

"I come late, at around 9.20am...late for around 20 minutes...start arguing (with the boss)...because of this thing...suddenly, I lost my job! Because of the MRT (delay). If nothing happens, I (can work) until Monday..."

In the afternoon, commuters were told to brace for more delays - of about 30 minutes - after SBS Transit found another fault, this time on the signalling system.

By the time the evening rush hour kicked in, some commuters said they would have to wait for multiple trains before they were able to board one because the station was packed.

One commuter also said he waited for about 10 minutes before he decided to take a shuttle bus.

TIBS Service 806 route details in 2002. No operation on Sundays and public holidays and does not ply Yishun Avenue 6. Now very high demand svc with fleet of 10 bendies..

SBS 1000U SG

I agree. At least no one gets stuck in the train for hours suffocating. SMRT still epic fail

But Singaporeans got to reaffirm themselves that buses should be the primary option instead of rail because in the end, you still have to rely on buses. Rail is not reliable at all.

And SBST please reinstate 82, 97 and 111 back to Hougang and Punggol.

Lucky 857 still alive.

TIBS Service 804 route details in 2002. U-turning at Yishun Avenue 1 with full fleet rigids at that time. Taken from my Yishun Town Guide
