Circle Line MRT services to end at 11pm from Sunday to Wednesday between June 15 and July 30

Train services at all Circle Line (CCL) stations will end earlier at 11pm from Sunday to Wednesday between June 15 and July 30.
This is to facilitate system renewal works ahead of the opening of Stage 6 of the line in the first half of 2026, said the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and rail operator SMRT on May 22.
CCL6 - which comprises the three new underground stations Keppel, Cantonment and Prince Edward Road - will close the loop between HarbourFront and Marina Bay stations.
The LTA and SMRT said train services on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays will remain unchanged.
At present, the last train departs from HarbourFront station between 11.03pm and 1.30am, and from Marina Bay station at 11.55pm.
The renewal works are required as the current integrated supervisory control system - which monitors and manages power supply, communications and station facilities on the CCL - has been in use since the opening of the line in 2009, said LTA and SMRT.
The system, which also supports communications between stations, control centres and trains, needs to be refreshed to ensure it is compatible with the new stretch of stations on CCL6.
