Facilities On The Mass Rapid Transit (Singapore) - Facilities and Services

Facilities and Services

All stations have lift, General Ticketing Machines (GTMs), at least one Passenger Service Centre (PSC), payphones, toilets, LED and plasma displays (showing the time, date, train service information, safety messages and commercials), located within the unpaid area of the concourse level. Some stations however, such as the underground Somerset MRT Station, have toilets located at street level instead.

Most stations have commercial space set aside for supermarkets, convenience stores, kiosks, Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) and self-service automated kiosks for a myriad of services. Plans are currently underway to increase the amount of commercial space at many SMRT Corporation stations as part of SMRT Corporation's efforts to raise rental revenue from the leasing of commercial space in its stations to help in the defraying operating costs.

Selected stations, located in areas of higher commuter traffic, will be rebranded as Xchanges.

  • Raffles Place Station as Raffles Xchange
  • Dhoby Ghaut Station as Dhoby Xchange
  • Choa Chu Kang Station as Choa Chu Kang Xchange

  • Esplanade Station as Esplanade Xchange
  • Orchard Station as Orchard Xchange

Famous quotes containing the words facilities and/or services:

    Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    It seems I impregnated Marge
    So I do rather feel, by and large,
    Some cash should be tendered
    For services rendered,
    But I can’t quite decide what to charge.
