Higher MRT train and bus fares kick in

Higher MRT train and bus fares kick in

Increased fares for some train and bus trips have officially kicked in.

From Saturday (Dec 29), commuters pay six cents more on adult card fares for both modes of public transport.

Single-trip train fares and adult cash bus fares have increased by 10 cents, while the prices for monthly travel passes remain unchanged.

Card fare increases for students and senior citizens have been capped at one cent, and their cash fares remain the same as before.

The rise in fares for lower-wage workers and people with disabilities has also been capped at one cent.

The Public Transport Council announced the changes on Oct 30.
