Publishing Commuter Graciousness Index and Commuter Graciousness Survey Results

Written Reply to Parliamentary Question 

Mr Chua Kheng Wee Louis  asked the Acting Minister for Transport 

a.     whether the Ministry can publish the Commuter Graciousness Index and Commuter Graciousness survey results over the last five years; and

b.     whether the Land Transport Authority can consider additional measures to encourage commuters to give up their seats for the elderly, pregnant women and other commuters in need on public transport systems.

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow: 

1.     We had answered a similar question by MP Jamus Lim on 26 September 2025. As mentioned in the written reply, we have been encouraging commuters to offer their seats to those who need them more through the Caring SG Commuter Movement and campaigns on gracious commuting behaviour.

2.     The government tracks the perceptions of graciousness on public transport through various studies by Land Transport Authority (LTA) and the Public Transport Council. We are currently reviewing the methodology of the LTA survey that was previously used to derive the Commuter Graciousness Index.
