Train service on the Punggol LRT Line resumed at 8.10am on Sept 13, about three hours after a systems fault led to a disruption.

Free regular and bridging bus services have also ceased, train operator SBS Transit said in a social media post on X at about 8.18am.

Preliminary findings indicate that the fault arose from a premature failure in the new signalling control system which manages train movements, SBS Transit group chief executive Jeffrey Sim said in a statement on Facebook at about 9.10am.

"When the system is down, trains are unable to operate," he said, adding that trains could not be launched from the depot at the start of operations.
