Factors to consider when choosing transport service in Singapore
- Timely arrival of the transport service provider
The arrival of the transport service provider at the requested location should be punctual and convenient. The primary factor that decides punctuality is usually the time of departure from home, including traffic infractions, roadblocks and pedestrians.
- Vehicle cleanliness
Since Singapore’s public transport system is well maintained by the Transport Departments, the vehicles may not be immaculate when booking transport services on trains or buses. Therefore, it is advisable to wipe down seats before getting seated for a ride.
- Cleanliness of the Booking Agent
Since Transport Service providers are the local transport companies, they should be available all round the clock to attend to their customers.
- Comfort provided by the transport service providers
The comfort provided by a transport service provider depends on the kind of transport service Singapore chooses. If you are travelling via bus, then it is advisable to select a seat at the front near the driver’s cabin as it is more comfortable and less noisy. If you are travelling by train, then it is advisable to book seats near doors so that in case of an emergency exit you can easily move out.
- Range of Transport services available
The range of transport services available is usually based on the transportation requirements of Singaporeans. There are a variety of transportation services in Singapore that cater for passengers’ varying needs for transport such as ferries, buses and trains.
Conclusion
Transportation management is an important issue in Singapore. The government has placed much emphasis on transportation planning and management activities to provide a viable, efficient and sustainable transport system for the increasing number of commuters.
