Re: Runtime

Hi,

I am in the midst of updating the runtime for MRT as I noticed quite a big disperency between the actual time taken. The old data is valid for reference between immediate stations in between (i.e. HarbourFront to Outram Park), but for pair distance such as HarbourFront to Dhoby Ghaut, the runtime is off by a huge margin.

Here the main reason for longer runtimes:

  • I am actually adding padding to minimise the desperency.
  • Operators have lengthen the station dwell time as compared to few years ago. In 2018, the runtime for NSL from Jurong East to Marina South Pier is around 63 mins, closer to the old data, but today it stands at 75 mins.
    • Dwell time per station increases from 20 - 40 seconds in the pass to 30 - 1 minute today, with most station falls in the range of 40-50 seconds.
    • Dwell time refer to the time the train comes to a complete stop at a station till the time the train begims leaving.
