High Covered Shelter for Boarding and Alighting of Passengers at Bus Stops

Mr Gan Thiam Poh asked the Minister for Transport whether there is a plan to enhance existing bus stops to include a high cover of 4.5 metres and above that extends into the bus bay so as to provide a covered shelter for boarding and alighting of passengers.

Where space permits, such shelters will be built, with priority given to the most heavily utilised bus stops, especially those connected to Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) stations. More than a quarter of the bus stops at MRT stations have cantilever shelters.
