Public transportation in Singapore has come a long way. It has evolved from rickshaws to buses and taxis to a world-class Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system. Since 1987, the MRT has kept Singaporeans moving in more ways than one. From the city centre to satellite towns, housing estates to industrial parks, travelling around Singapore has never been easier.
Convenient, safe and reliable, the MRT has helped to make Singapore one of the most liveable cities in the world and as part of the country's excellent infrastructure, has contributed significantly to the wealth and prosperity of the nation. The MRT has become a national pride for many Singaporeans.
SMRT Corporation is one of the operators of Singapore's MRT system. With its proven track record of safety, efficiency and reliability, SMRT has established itself as one of the most reputable rail operators in the world.
A visit to the SMRT will give students the opportunity to learn about Singapore's transport system and its developments. Specifically, it will provide a platform for students to have a better understanding of how the MRT system is operated and to experience first-hand the complex "behind the scene" works that go into making each commuter's ride a safe and comfortable one.
Students from the primary level will also learn about safety when using the MRT. |
