Safety and security are two key determinants of commuters’ experience. To enhance safety on Singapore’s rail system, half-height platform doors will be installed at above ground MRT stations, starting with Yishun, Jurong East and Pasir Ris Stations.
With the fundamental transformation of the global security climate, there is an urgent need to ensure the security of our public transport system. To enhance the security of Singapore’s public transport system, measures such as the installation of closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras and introduction of security officers at RTS stations and bus interchanges has been implemented.
Going forward, we will continue to work closely with the various security agencies and public transport operators to further secure our public transport system against terrorist threats.
