There will be no train service on the Bukit Panjang LRT (BPLRT) on two Sundays — Aug 31 and Sept 21 — to allow for integration testing of a new communications-based train control signalling system with new third-generation and upgraded second-generation light rail vehicles (LRVs).«This (closure) is needed to provide a longer period for continuous testing of the new signalling system simulating actual operating conditions», said the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and rail operator SMRT in a joint statement on Wednesday (July 30).LTA and SMRT added that the the new signalling system is similar to that used on MRT lines and allows «better control of train speeds» so that commuters can «enjoy smoother and more reliable rides». The closures will allow the system to be comprehensively and rigorously tested, over a longer period, to ensure proper integration with the new and upgraded LRVs. Signalling system works are expected to be completed and deployed by end-2025.During the closures, a shuttle bus service — LRT shuttle B — will operate in the direction of BLRT service B, at a frequency of five to 15 minutes. 

He may have been in a rush, but the time he saved crossing the street may have cost him his life.A youth was seen dashing across a pedestrian crossing at a junction along Yio Chu Kang on Tuesday (July 29) evening, according to a post on Facebook group Singapore Road Vigilante (SGRV) the same day.Based on the clip, the accident is believed to have occurred at the junction of Yio Chu Kang Road and Hougang Avenue 9.In the video, the youth, carrying a bag, can be seen pausing for a moment at the side of the junction, before making a dash across the crossing while the pedestrian lights were still red.However, as he reaches the left-most lane, a taxi appears.Unable to stop in time, he makes contact with the right side of the cab, and is sent tumbling to the ground, landing on his side.In the collision, the youth drops his phone to the ground, while a blue object — possibly the taxi's sideview mirror — also falls onto the road towards the middle of the junction.Fortunately, the youth is able to get back on his feet, picking up his phone before walking over to the other side of the crossing.

SINGAPORE — The dry rising main at Block 229 Toa Payoh Lorong 8 was not in proper working condition when the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) fought the blaze there on July 29.SCDF said on July 30 that because the dry rising main was not working, water could not be charged up to the affected floors.Firefighters had to set up hoses directly from the fire engine below up to the 10th and 11th floors via the staircase.The fire had engulfed a flat on the 10th floor and spread to a unit on the 11th. A total of seven people, including a firefighter and a child, were taken to hospital.An SCDF spokesman said: «This is more onerous, but it is a contingency that SCDF firefighters regularly train for during their routine drills.»The dry rising main is a vertical red pipe installed in a building, and is typically dry when not in use.During a fire, it is charged with water from a fire engine, allowing water to reach the upper floors of a building.SCDF said it is working with the town council to investigate the incident. It is also working to rectify the dry rising main fault to ensure it is in proper working condition.

As SG60 celebrations kick into high gear, you've probably seen some reflections on social media on how far we've come - and where we're headed next. Perhaps, it's also time to move past some of the lingering stereotypes that hold us back, like the idea that Singaporeans love to complain.So what happens when everyday Singaporeans try to do the opposite? Instead of reacting negatively and pointing fingers when they spot an issue, some are devising solutions and rolling up their sleeves as they follow through on plans with dedication.Take for instance 39-year-old Johny Tan, a healthcare administrator and grassroots leader. He started the Boon Lay Clean-Up Project - an initiative that invites everyone, including those residing outside Boon Lay - to contribute towards a cleaner estate.Tan, whose work revolves around the study of population health, was inspired by research showing that clean environments improve well-being and reduce stress. He kickstarted this community effort to collectively uplift the welfare of fellow residents.
