Before 2009, there were no safety barriers in place to prevent commuters from falling, accidentally or intentionally, onto the railway tracks. Since 2012, each of the 36 elevated stations across the North-South and East-West Lines has been retrofitted with 1.5 metre-tall platform screen doors along the platform edge to protect commuters from oncoming trains. This infrastructure upgrade also creates a second door, which discourages people from dashing for departing trains.
