SG: DTL2 worksite caught fire

A DTL worksite along Woodlands Road caught fire early yesterday morning at roughly 3:00am, sending huge clouds of grey smoke over the nearby estates. According to eye-witnesses, the fire appeared to have started underground, and is described as ‘haze-like’. The SCDF despatched 3 fire engines, a Red Rhino, an ambulance, along with five other support vehicles to the scene. The fire involved some wood, and was put out in just half an hour. Thankfully, no one was hurt in the blaze. Since it was confined to a localised area, it shouldn’t impact the construction of the entire line. The MOM has since issued a stop work order so they can investigate what triggered the fire.
