Litter-free Bus Service

 

Litter-Free Bus Services On 27 July 2007, Mrs. Lim Hwee Hua, Minister of State for Finance and Transport, launched the “Litter-Free Bus Services” Programme at Ang Mo Kio Bus Interchange, a joint initiative by SBS Transit Ltd, SMRT Buses Ltd. and the National Environment Agency (NEA). Identified as one of the most littered public places in NEA’s six-month Litter Behaviour Study, bus interchanges and its services will now benefit from this programme aimed at involving key stakeholders (i.e., bus operators, bus commuters, bus captains and shop tenants) in keeping bus service premises litter-free. As an extension of “Singapore, Litter-Free” Campaign, this programme is rolled out to 21 bus interchanges and more than 3,650 buses island wide. With everyone taking ownership of his/her litter and keeping bus service premises litter-free, commuters can look forward to a cleaner and more comfortable bus travelling experience. The Launch of the “Litter-Free” Bus Services was in July 2007.
