Platform gap fillers are being fitted on 64 older Circle Line trains, with installation works completed for 24 of them and the remaining 40 trains slated to have these rubber strips by 2025, the Land Transport Authority said.
In April 2019, a commuter travelling on the Circle Line had her leg trapped between the platform at Buona Vista station and an MRT train. From the second half of 2015, fillers were installed on new MRT trains plying the North-East and Circle Line trains. Around four years ago, she was flung off her wheelchair while disembarking from the train as her wheels got caught in the platform gap. She also dropped her phone onto the train tracks.
