Written Reply to Parliamentary Question
Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Transport
a. how many active Adult Monthly Travel Passes and Senior Citizen Monthly Concession Passes are there currently;
b. how many adults and senior citizens spent more than $122 and $55 a month respectively on public transport in April 2026; and
c. whether the Ministry will systematically promote such monthly travel passes to eligible commuters to help them manage transport costs.
Reply by Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow:
1. In April 2026, about 23,500 Adult Monthly Travel Passes and 41,800 Senior Citizen Monthly Concession Passes were sold. In the same month, about 56,000 adults and 58,000 seniors who did not have monthly passes each spent more on public transport than what the pass would have cost them.
2. In 2025, the Public Transport Council (PTC) reduced the prices of monthly passes by about 5% to encourage take up. PTC and SimplyGo also reaches out to commuters across various channels, including social media and online platforms, to raise awareness of the monthly passes.
