SINGAPORE: Train services on the North East Line were disrupted for about three hours after a power fault was reported late Tuesday morning (Aug 12).

The Sengkang-Punggol LRT, which is connected to the NEL, was also affected.
“We apologise to all affected commuters for the inconvenience caused,” said Mr Jeffrey Sim, group CEO of transport operator SBS Transit. “We take this matter very seriously and are looking into the cause of the incident.”
