SINGAPORE – Adult commuters will pay 12 or 13 cents more for bus and train rides from Dec 26, as public transport fares climb by 7% on the back of higher energy costs driven by the Middle East crisis.
Seniors and students, as well as commuters with disabilities who use the Persons with Disabilities card, will pay 5 cents more for each journey.
This is the highest fare increase so far, after fares rose by up to 11 cents in the 2023 fare review exercise.
