Ah Gong overheard some of the missy in my old age home starting to curse and swear at the SMRT CEO and the Transport Minister .

Lapses by SMRT maintenance staff brought disrepute to transport workers, says Khaw Boon Wan

PUBLISHED 3 HOURS AGO UPDATED2 HOURS AGO

Adrian Lim Transport Correspondent

SINGAPORE - The failure of a group of SMRT staff to carry out their maintenance duties - leading to an MRT tunnel flooding in October - had "negated the good work" of other SMRT workers, and "brought disrepute" to other transport workers, said Transport Minister Khaw Boon Wan on Tuesday (Nov 14).

"They have tarnished the reputation of Singapore and Singaporeans," Mr Khaw said in a speech at Bedok Town Square, during the first appreciation day for public transport workers.

While the event was to recognise and thank about 22,000 transport workers, Mr Khaw had stern words for the SMRT staff responsible for the tunnel flooding on Oct 7 between Bishan and Braddell MRT stations, which shut down train services on a segment of the North-South Line for about 20 hours.

He said the past cannot be changed, adding: "But let it be the turning point for SMRT, especially in its journey towards transforming its corporate culture."

He encouraged SMRT workers to dedicate their 100 per cent to make train services reliable again.

"This requires an all-out effort. This requires everyone in SMRT to play their part, from the CEO down to the rank and file," Mr Khaw said, adding that while the company will find support from the union and other workers, SMRT staff themselves must do the "heavy lifting".

Khaw Boon Wan speaking during an appreciation event for public transport workers

He said there will be "some black sheep" in every large organisation, and lapses leading to the flooding incident on Oct 7 could happen to other companies too.

He said the job of public transport operators is to identify errant workers, counsel them and give them a chance to shape up.

"What we should not do is to turn a blind eye to their act, or worse, follow them," he added.

During his speech, Mr Khaw recognised the vital work that transport workers do, with the public transportation network expanding and an increase in the number of commuters taking trains and buses daily.

He said 66 per cent of Singaporeans take public transport daily, and the daily bus and rail rides have increased by 30 per cent to nearly eight million in five years.

Mr Khaw said the work has increased as new demands arose.

He gave the example of bus drivers having to coordinate with service controllers to pace their buses and reduce bunching, so that buses will arrive with greater punctuality.

Why now so many train faults ? Why now no more announcement on social media ? Why the news are not reporting ? Why can't you solve all the problems at one go instead of reacting to a crisis ?

Commentary: Focus SMRT’s recovery on dealing with delays and disruptions decisively


SMRT’s efforts to address the tunnel flooding incident are laudable but the company should focus on productive ways to manage future delays and disruptions, says NUS Business School’s Dr Nitin Pangarkar



By Nitin Pangarkar

15 Nov 2017 06:30AM (Updated: 15 Nov 2017 06:40AM)


SINGAPORE: Recently, SMRT has come under criticism for issues ranging from train disruptions late last week leaving commuters angry over the lack of official announcements about the impending delays, to the more serious matter about the falsification of maintenance records by some of its employees that led to the MRT tunnel flooding in early October.

It seems neither commuters nor SMRT staff can catch a break.

While the company’s woes have been analysed from a variety of perspectives, many commentators have focused narrowly on specific issues such as the amnesty offered to staff to come clean and report gaps in processes, and the tunnel flooding incident.

Few have offered constructive suggestions on what SMRT management can do about its more problematic and pervasive challenge of dealing with seemingly more frequent delays and disruptions more decisively.

Having studied the responses of several other organisations such as Johnson and Johnson, BP and Singapore Airlines that have gone through crises, there are some guiding principles that may be instructive for SMRT management, in my opinion.

1. FOCUS ON CONTROLLABLE ASPECTS IN SHORT TERM


One of the first tasks of SMRT management should be to avoid knee-jerk reactions.

It is easy to paint with a broad brush and talk about broken culture. Not only is such talk demoralising for staff but it may also be inaccurate - after all, SMRT has received high praise from global surveys for its operational efficiency and service standards for many years.

SMRT’s internal communications bears repeating the key message that SMRT has a responsibility to provide safe and reliable transportation and any future breaches jeopardising safety or reliability will be dealt with in the strictest manner, with the concerned employees being held accountable.

But a more productive course of action is for SMRT management to determine whether the cheating incident was a localised break in culture or an organisation-wide malaise, and focus their recovery accordingly.

In doing so, the management also needs to make a distinction between factors that are controllable in the short run versus those that can be fixed only in the long run. Ageing equipment can cause breakdowns but that equipment can be replaced or upgraded only in the medium term since the service has to keep operating, posing constraints on quick replacement.

Signalling fault causes morning delays on Circle Line


15 Nov 2017 06:55AM (Updated: 15 Nov 2017 07:20AM)


SINGAPORE: Train service along the Circle Line was delayed during the morning rush hour on Wednesday (Nov 15) due to a signalling fault, operator SMRT said.

In a tweet at 6.42am, SMRT urged commuters to cater for an additional 20 minutes of travel time between Farrer Road and Buona Vista stations.

SMRT advised commuters to add 20 minutes of additional travel time from Buona Vista and Harbourfront MRT stations, in both directions.

In another tweet at 7.09am, the train operator announced that free bus services were available between Botanic Gardens and Kent Ridge stations.

In an earlier tweet at 6.28am, SMRT said a signal fault had caused slower train service between Botanic Gardens and Haw Par Villa.

Really even new line also got problem . I wonder what is wrong with their signalling system ? Is it safe to travel on the mrt ? So how Mr Khaw ? Why don't you set up a COI to once and for all to sole all these issues . Do you think it is fair to your commuters to be always late for their work and appointments ? So you still want to vote for PAP ?

Signal fault delays trains on Circle Line on Wednesday morning

PUBLISHED 20 MIN AGO

SINGAPORE - A signal fault held up service in both directions on the Circle Line on Wednesday (Nov 15) morning.

Rail operator SMRT first tweeted at 6.28am, warning commuters that trains are moving slower between Buona Vista and HarbourFront stations.

"We are investigating the fault," it added.

Less than 15 minutes later, SMRT said to add 20 minutes' travel time between the stations.

SMRT Corporation @SMRT_Singapore
[CCL]: Due to a Signal fault between #Farrer Road and # Buona Vista .Pls add 20mins train travel time between #Buona Vista and HarbourFornt on both bounds.

On Twitter, some commuters complained that trains were not moving at all.

The last major fault on the Circle Line occurred during the morning peak on Sept 11, when a train was rendered inoperable near Marymount station after emergency brakes were applied.

The faulty train had to be pushed out of the way by another train, affecting thousands of commuters on their way to work and school.

I wonder if commuters can sue SMRT or not ???

SINGAPORE: Both the Circle Line and East-West Line were affected by delays during the morning rush hour on Wednesday (Nov 15) due to two separate faults.

SMRT train hits stationary train at Joo Koon MRT station; 25 injured


SMRT and LTA said the train behind a stalled train “moved forward unexpectedly” and “came into contact” with the first train.

PUBLISHED 1 HOUR AGO UPDATED9 SEC AGO

Christopher Tan Senior Transport Correspondent

SINGAPORE - An SMRT train hit a stationary one at the Joo Koon MRT station platform around 8am on Wednesday (Nov 15) during the morning peak hour when trains are usually packed.

The Straits Times understands that the incident has to do with a malfunction of the new signalling system.

The SMRT and Land Transport Authority (LTA) said in a statement that at 8.18am, a train heading westwards in the direction of Tuas Link station stalled at Joo Koon station on the East-West Line.

About a minute later, a second train stopped behind the first train but soon after moved forward unexpectedly and "came into contact with the first train".

A total of 23 passengers and two SMRT staff sustained light to moderate injuries and were taken conscious to the National University Hospital and Ng Teng Fong General Hospital.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force was alerted around 8.30am.

I suggest SMRT close for 1 mth. And go overhaul, service, or watever fucking maintenance need to be done. After 1 month ,make that fucker Khaw to declare its safe and then promise the public no more fault line lah, signal line lah, collision lah next 5 years. Fuck lah so many reasons and excuses. If after close for 1 mth and then problems still persist, then Khaw must resign and crawl back to Penang!

by the time the next GE in 3 yrs time,
with some stupid top-ups by the PAP,
they will happily vote PAP again.
The cycle will repeat again and again,

How to understand the Joo Koon MRT station train collision

If you're a regular public transport commuter, this is what you understand.

Two SMRT trains were involved in a collision at the Joo Koon MRT station platform around 8am on Wednesday, Nov. 15.


What happened?

A train heading in the direction of Tuas Link station stalled at Joo Koon station at 8.18am.

A minute later, a second train stopped behind the first faulty train.

At 8.20am, which was another minute later, the second train moved forward unexpectedly, and came into contact with the first train.

A total of 25 people — 23 passengers and two SMRT staff — sustained light to moderate injuries and were taken conscious to the National University Hospital and Ng Teng Fong General Hospital.

They were believed to have been thrown off balance by the impact.

Here’s how to understand the Joo Koon MRT station train boop in context

1. If SMRT was a person with feelings

2. This accident comes one day after Public Transport Workers’ Appreciation Day

The universe is either conspiring against SMRT or bad luck is a thing.

Shagged.

3. The trains booping each other could be the result of the new signalling system

After all that bother with putting in place a new signalling system, it doesn’t work that well.

The implications of this, if true, are unimaginable. It could mean more time needed to tweak the system and more down time for trains, and more inconveniences for commuters
