Ensuring Resiliency of Public Transport Services Given Recent COVID-19 Clusters at Public Transport Nodes

Mr Desmond Choo asked the Minister for Transport in view of the recent spate of COVID-19 clusters involving public transport nodes, what measures can the Ministry take to (i) ensure the resiliency of public transport services to loss of manpower from COVID-19 infections and quarantines and (ii) assure commuters that our public transport system is appropriately maintained for hygiene, especially after discovery of COVID-19 cases.

Mr S Iswaran: I thank the Member for his questions. I have addressed them in my reply to Question No. 56 for oral answer on the Order Paper for 14 September 2021.
