We've received reports that the alarm has gone off at Orchard MRT station. The entrances to Orchard Ion, Wheelock Place and Tangs have been shut. Are you affected?

SINGAPORE: Access to malls from Orchard MRT station were cut off on Sunday evening (Jul 5) after the fire alarm went off and the shutters at the station's exits went down.
According to a Channel NewsAsia reporter at the scene, entrances to the basement levels of malls including ION Orchard, Wheelock Place and TANGS Orchard were sealed off from about 7.10pm, after the fire alarm sounded.
A security guard from SMRT told Channel NewsAsia that it was a false alarm, but it would need some time to re-open the passages.
There was some confusion among those who were trying to enter or exit the station from the basement levels of the malls, the Channel NewsAsia reporter added.
