Expected Cost for Upcoming Free Off-peak Rides Pilot

Ms He Ting Ru asked the Acting Minister for Transport (a) what is the expected cost of the upcoming pilot to offer free off-peak MRT and LRT rides for commuters in northeast Singapore; and (b) whether the Ministry can share any projections on the impact to ridership patterns.

I thank the Member for the question. I have addressed this at the 4 November 2025 Parliament Sitting. [Please refer to ​"Duration of Free Morning Off-peak Rail Rides Scheme on North East Line", Official Report, 4 November 2025, Vol 96, Issue 9, Oral Answers to Questions section.]
