Bukit Panjang LRT to close for two full days in September for renewal works

The Bukit Panjang LRT line will be completely closed to passengers on two dates next month as part of ongoing renewal works aimed at enhancing the line's infrastructure and reliability. The Land Transport Authority said the full-day suspensions are scheduled for September 20 and September 27. During these closure periods, commuters will need to use alternative transport routes to reach their destinations. The authority will provide shuttle bus services to help facilitate travel between affected stations during the shutdown days. These two September closures represent the final major planned disruptions under the comprehensive Bukit Panjang LRT renewal programme, which is on track for completion by the end of 2026. The renewal initiative aims to modernise the ageing line and ensure its long-term operational efficiency and passenger safety. Commuters are advised to plan their journeys in advance and check the LRT operator's website for the latest information on shuttle bus arrangements and alternative transport options during the closures.
