Regulators

• Bus Service Standards

• Fare Regulation

• To ensure efficient network, information and fare integration

• To facilitate seamless travel for commuters with introduction of MRT in 1987 18 Financing Framework

Partnership approach . Government builds & pays for infrastructure . Operators recover cost from operating revenue (fare, advertising, etc) . Commuters pay for service

Self-sustaining transport network . No subsidies on operation and maintenance of trains, buses or taxis

19 Public Transport Council

• An independent body established in 1987

• Members are from a wide spectrum of society • Regulates • bus service standards • bus service operators • ticket payment services • bus & rapid transit system fares

20 Public Transport Fare Framework . Distance Fares (since July 2010)

. Fares are adjusted through price cap regulation administrated by PTC . Sets max allowable fare adjustment based on macro-economic conditions . Gives operators reasonable return & guards against excessive hikes

Ave PT Fare index Consumer Price Index Wage Index 21 Current Fare Review Formula

Fare Adjustment: Price index – productivity extraction Price Index = 0.4 cCPI + 0.4 WI + 0.2 EI Productivity Extraction = 0.5% (valid for 2013 to 2017)

. cCPI is the change in core Consumer Price Index . WI is the change in Wage Index. This refers to the Average Monthly Earnings (Annual National Average), adjusted to account for any changes in the employer’s CPF contribution. . EI is the change in Energy Index. This refers to a composite of cost changes in electricity and diesel.

22 Bus Services – Going Forward Bus contracting from 2016

Today, operators own buses, run routes and earn revenue. Bus contracting changes all that. Under Singapore’s new bus contracting, Government will:

• own buses and bus infrastructure and contract out packages of routes for operators to operate • retains fare revenue • pay the operators a fee to operate and maintain the services

23 Bus Services – Going Forward How does it work?

• Govt calls tenders for packages of bus routes • Operators bid • Govt awards package based on “Gross Cost Model”

What is “Gross Cost Model”?

Government supplies and owns buses and bus infrastructure (depots, interchanges)

• Successful operators do not have to bear this cost and can then focus on operations to deliver service to standards
