8 May 2023

Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for Transport

a.     whether public buses are required to pay Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) charges while travelling on their designated bus routes;

b.     whether LTA reimburses public transport operators for these charges; and

c.     what is the total amount in ERP paid by public transport operators in each of the last three years.

Reply by Minister for Transport S Iswaran:

1.     Public buses pay Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) charges. These are borne by the public transport operators (PTOs) as part of their operating costs.

2.     The total amount of ERP paid by the PTOs in the last three years is $1,910,847 in 2020, $153,231 in 2021, and $399,829 in 2022.
