SINGAPORE: <\/span>The MRT network’s reliability neared a record high in May, while the Circle Line’s (CCL) reliability improved by 50 per cent, according to the Land Transport Authority\u2019s monthly report on Friday (Jun 12).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n LTA publishes its reliability figures using a 12-month moving average of mean kilometres between failures (MKBF) – a metric that measures train reliability. It tracks the average distance that a train travels before it encounters a delay of more than five minutes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In May, the overall MRT network MKBF reached 2,500,000 train-km, up from 2,220,000 train-km in April.<\/span><\/p>\n This is the second month in a row in which the overall MRT network MKBF has remained above 2,000,000 train-km, said LTA. According to LTA data, the figure was below the record high of 2,627,000 train-km achieved in June 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n May’s reliability figures were boosted by the Circle Line’s (CCL) performance, which improved by about 50 per cent from April.<\/span><\/p>\n The CCL’s MKBF increased to 3,550,000 train-km in May, up from 2,360,000 train-km the preceding month..<\/span><\/p>\n The other MRT lines largely held steady in May, with no changes in MKBF for the East-West Line (EWL) and Downtown Line (DTL) when compared to April.<\/span><\/p>\n The North-South Line (NSL) and North-East Line (NEL) had modest gains, with the NSL increasing to 1,650,000 train-km from 1,420,000 train-km, and the NEL rising to 4,460,000 train-km from 4,450,000 train-km.<\/span><\/p>\n
