The last MRT trains will be leaving City Hall, Raffles Place and Clarke Quay stations at about 1am, and there will be buses until 6am on Sunday (29 Mar).
"LRT services and 41 feeder bus services will also extend hours to match the last trains to provide connectivity between train stations and residential areas," reports Channel News Asia. "This arrangement will allow the operators to carry out maintenance of the trains and tracks overnight, so that MRT and LRT services can be ramped up during the State Funeral Procession on Sunday, said the Land Transport Authority, SBS Transit and SMRT in a joint statement."
Herewith, the schedule from CNA:
— SBS Transit and SMRT will ramp up their Night Bus services that normally operate on Fridays, Saturdays and the eve of Public Holidays. These 13 bus services will run from midnight to 6am, at intervals of 15 minutes, and provide connections to major residential areas, such as Jurong, Bukit Batok, Yishun, Ang Mo Kio, Sengkang and Tampines.
— SBS Transit 32, 124 and 145 and SMRT 190 and 851 will also operate on extended hours until 6am at 15-minute intervals to provide additional connections from the city to the heartlands.
— On Sunday, all train services will run at shorter headways of between three and five minutes from 11am until 6pm, to provide connections for those who may want to pay their last respects to the late Mr Lee during the State Funeral Procession.
