In case you still do not know, there will be no train service between Jurong East and Clementi on the 4th and 5th of September. And also no train service between Bukit Batok and Jurong East on the 18th and 19th of September. Not to worry, there will be 70 bendy buses ferrying the passengers affected.

I think this is the first time ever in SMRT history that they shut down services between 2 stations for upgrading works. But I’m glad they are FINALLY doing the upgrade works. The train is really getting more and more overcrowded. Hope this will improve everything. The news say it will shorten waiting time from the current 2.5 to 4.5 minutes to 2 to 3 minutes.

But this also means that my house will be more or less disconnected from the rest of civilization this weekend. Or maybe I should just cancel all appointments this weekend and stay in Pulau Jurong. Hmmm……
