How long does it take?

Allow about 25 minutes on the train from City Hall to Bedok. That assumes roughly 2 to 3 minutes per stop, plus a few minutes waiting for the first train. Trains run every 2 to 3 minutes at peak times and every 5 to 7 minutes off-peak, so the wait is short. Add the walk at either end: most city-centre stations have several exits and the right one can save 5 minutes.

First and last trains

The East West Line runs from about 5:19 AM until about 11:23 PM at its first station. Times at City Hall itself depend on how far it is from the end of the line, and the last connecting train at an interchange leaves earlier than the last train of the night, so for a trip after 11.30pm check the first and last train times before you set off. Services start about half an hour later on Sundays and public holidays.
