2Mbps?! Wow!

Train commuters at City Hall, Orchard and Raffles Place MRT stations will be able to enjoy free Wi-Fi connections at the platform level of the stations from Aug 22.

The free access marks the start of a roll-out of the Wireless@SG service to a total of 28 MRT station platforms on the North East Line (NEL) and stations with high commuter traffic.

Part of the Land Transport Masterplan 2013, it is aimed at providing better service on the public transport network.

Wi-Fi connectivity at the remaining station platforms will be rolled out progressively over the next nine months, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said yesterday.

Besides City Hall, Orchard and Raffles Place, the other stations are Bishan, Buona Vista, Choa Chu Kang, Dhoby Ghaut, HarbourFront, Jurong East, Outram Park, Paya Lebar and Serangoon.

Wireless@SG, a wireless broadband initiative by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore, allows users to get free wireless broadband access, with speeds of up to 2Mbps.
