SINGAPORE: The Land Transport Authority (LTA) on Tuesday (Mar 8) announced it will extend the operating hours of Full-Day Bus Lanes by three hours.
From Mar 21, the lanes will operate from 7.30am to 11pm, the LTA said in its press release. Previously, the operating hours ended at 8pm.
The LTA said this will help shorten travel times for commuters during late evening periods.
There are 23 kilometres of such lanes which operate on weekdays and Saturdays, excluding public holidays, and they are mainly located in the city centre.
Some commuters said they welcomed the initiative.
"Sometimes I finish work late at night, and if there's traffic jams and all, I don't want to (be stuck in one)," said Mahmud Ismail, a 26-year-old cook. "I would rather reach home a lot earlier."
"As drivers, we should always give way to buses, even if it's after 8pm," said 20-year-old Joseph Kwee, a National Serviceman. "It doesn't matter if it's after 8pm or before 8 pm, you should always give way to buses. And I guess it would enforce better driving habits."
MANDATORY GIVE WAY TO BUSES SCHEME
Separately, the agency said it will implement the Bus Priority Box, also known as the Mandatory Give Way to Buses scheme, at two bus stops along Orchard Road. This is part of a six-month trial to evaluate its usefulness at bus stops without bus bays, it said.
The bus stops are opposite Mandarin Orchard and Midpoint Orchard. There are currently 332 bus stops with Bus Priority Boxes since it was first introduced in 2008, LTA said.
It added that it will use the findings of this six-month trial to determine if the scheme should be applied for similar bus stops in other locations.
