We refer to Mr Han Ann Juan’s letter on the seat availability along the walkway from Beauty World MRT Station to Beauty World Centre (交流站:美世界地铁站椅子不够, Nov 16).
We would like to clarify that the bench was temporarily removed on 14 May 2024 to facilitate construction works, as it was occupying the space where the works needed to take place. The bench was subsequently reinstated along the same walkway on 22 October 2024, a short distance of about 15 metres from its original location, and is available for commuter use.
We thank Mr Han for his feedback and will continue to provide resting points where possible.
