Written Reply to Parliamentary Question on Peak Ridership Levels of Public Buses and Moves to Rationalise Services

3 October 2022

This article has been migrated from an earlier version of the site and may display formatting inconsistencies.

Mr Melvin Yong Yik Chye asked the Minister for Transport 

a.     whether public bus ridership at peak hours has recovered to pre-COVID-19 levels; and

b.     if not, whether public bus services need to be rationalised to account for the post-pandemic new normal.

Reply by Minister for Transport S Iswaran:

1.    Public bus ridership during peak hours has reached about 85% of pre- COVID-19 levels as of August 2022, up from about 75% at the end of March 2022 when Safe Management Measures were relaxed. LTA has been monitoring demand on the public bus network closely and will work with bus operators to adjust bus capacity where necessary.
