Single-loop service was rolled out from Dec 1, 2019, with the BPLRT functioning only on Service B from Choa Chu Kang station to Bukit Panjang, via Petir station, during off-peak hours to enable renewal work, which began in 2018 to improve the line’s reliability. Dual-loop service resumed in March on Saturdays, from 11am to 1pm and 5pm to 7pm. In June, service resumed during the same hours on Sundays.Since Sept 28, there have been all-day dual-loop services on weekends and public holidays. With LTA’s latest announcement, the BPLRT will resume dual-loop services for the entire day on weekdays as well, from Dec 30.
The early closure, which was announced on Nov 1, is to allow the upgrading of the BPLRT’s signalling system, and the testing of new and retrofitted light-rail vehicles.
