Bus, train fares to rise by up to 10 cents per journey next year

Singapore

BUS and train fares could rise by as much as 4.3 per cent - or 10 cents per journey - next year, going by a new component in the public transport fare review formula.

In a statement released yesterday, the Public Transport Council said the 2018 review will include a network capacity factor (NCF), which tracks how much bus and rail capacity has changed in relation to actual usage.
