The LTSS will commence in 2026 and will support the continued reliability of the NEL's control system.
Hitachi Rail has been a long-term trusted partner to SBS Transit Rail since 2003, supporting the original ISCS for SBS Transit's first MRT line. The LTSS will commence in 2026, with Hitachi Rail providing technical expertise for obsolescence management for the NEL. The initiative marks a significant milestone for Hitachi Rail's growing local footprint and ongoing commitment to expanding technical capabilities within Singapore, while sustaining rail reliability.
The programme will strengthen long-term support for the ISCS over the next 15 years, supporting operational targets while reducing reliance on short-term fixes and supporting reliable rail operations. ISCS integrates the monitoring and control of key line systems, supporting safe and efficient operations across the railway.
Cyrille Bataille, Head of APAC Market, Hitachi Rail, said : "We're extending our long-standing collaboration with SBS Transit. This support contract will help address system obsolescence in a structured way and support reliable operations on the North East Line."
