To Save Face, AssMRT Stopped Annoucing Train Delay Even When Safety Compromised!
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
SMRT AVOIDS MAKING ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT TRAIN DELAYS ON EAST-WEST LINE .node-article .field-name-link-line-above-tags{float: right;}.node-article .field-name-ad-box-in-article {float: left;margin: 15px 15px 10px 0;}.node-article .field-tags{clear: both;} Post date: 22 Oct 2014 - 10:11pm  At about 7:30am on Monday morning, commuters travelling on the East-West Line were met with large crowds and delays yet they were left completely in the dark about what was going on. SMRT failed to make any official announcement on the trains affected and they did not publicise the issues on their social media accounts. The only warning that commuters received was on the platform itself when the notice wrote that there were 5 to 10 minute delays on the trains travelling from Outram to Joo Koon. A TRS Reader who was caught up in the congestion explained that one of the trains had stopped and did not move for over 10 minutes. Then, passengers were asked to disembark and this lead to massive congestions on the platforms. In fact, it even caused a safety issue at the top of the escalator as commuters coming up the escalators were unaware that there was no room on the platform and they were being squashed into each other as the escalator pushed more and more people onto the platform. See the video here: The TRS reader who took this video explained that SMRT staff also failed to stop people from going up the escalators despite there clearly being no more room on the platforms. Because SMRT also never updated their social media accounts about the problems, mainstream media also did not cover the issue at all. Perhaps they feel that the safety issues faced by commuters on the platform were not worth reporting because the delayed only lasted 5 to 10 minutes. In reality though, despite the train only coming to a stop for about 10 minutes, the build-up of commuters on the platforms meant that commuters were forced to wait up to 20minutes before they could even board another train.
