👷🏽‍♀️ Depending on the terrain and location, different types of Tunnel Boring Machines (#TBM) are deployed for our underground projects.

#DidYouKnow that a new rectangular TBM was used for the first time in the construction of #TEL3 Havelock station instead of the conventional circular one? #EngineeringWOW 🏗💪🏽

👀 Check out how the RTBM allowed us to expedite the construction of a pedestrian underpass connecting to Havelock station with fewer disamenities to residents and other stakeholders in the area! 🤝

🚆 #DidYouKnow that the Thomson-East Coast Line (#TEL) intersects with all existing lines in our MRT network?

🤔 However, constructing interchange stations comes with many challenges. For example, to construct the #TEL3 Stevens interchange station, we had to build new stacked tunnels between existing #DTL tunnels with ‘live’ train services running every single day. #EngineeringWOW 🏗💪🏽

👀 Check out this video made by one of our engineers to see how we managed to pull off this seemingly impossible feat!

#PSA 📢 Since the opening of the Thomson-East Coast Line Stage 3 (#TEL3) last year, the average weekday ridership on TEL has almost tripled from 60,000 in Oct 2022 to 177,000 in Oct 2023!

With more commuters using TEL3 (hello shorter travelling time! ), the overall ridership for some bus services 🚌 plying along TEL segments has ⬇️ by ~30-40%. #ChangingTravelPatterns

To reduce duplication of bus services with TEL and to reallocate finite resources to better serve residents from new estates 🏡👪, some bus services will be adjusted from 🗓️10 Dec 2023.

Check out our visuals for more details.
