THE first five stations of the new Circle Line were opened by Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Teo Chee Hean this morning. Trains will start rolling tomorrow at Bartley, Serangoon, Lorong Chuan, Bishan and Marymount stations.

Commuters can transfer to the existing North-South line and North-East line at Bishan and Serangoon respectively.

About 55,000 commuters are expected to use the first five stations every day.

The remaining 24 stations of the line will open from next year. Once fully operational, the line's daily ridership is expected to go up to 500,000.
