Getting Around

The easiest and cheapest way to get around is by bus or train, known as the MRT. Public transport is clean, safe and on time!

An EZ-Link card which may be purchased at MRT passenger service desks, 7-Eleven shops, some ATM's, post offices and online at ezlink.com.sg makes traveling easy and efficient. The EZ-Link card is tapped at the train turn stile at be beginning and end of each journey and the fare is deducted from your positive balance.

Bus fares are also calculated by tapping in and out of the bus. Taxis are also a great option and relatively inexpensive. There are some great Apps to help you get around.

Buying your own car in Singapore can be very expensive and the process can be confusing! Over and above the cost of the vehicle and various taxes you also need to buy a COE - Certificate of Entitlement which is valid for 10 years.

The government uses this system to control the number of cars on the road and only releases a limited number of COE a year. The price of a COE varies according to demand and can be up to $100,000! On the plus side if you sell your car you will recoup the unused portion of the COE.

The cost of the vehicle and the COE can be financed over a ten year period.

巴士服務

新加坡大多數人以公共交通工具為主要交通工具。公共巴士是公共交通網絡的重要組成部分。大多數巴士服務由SMRT巴士和SBS Transit運營。

目前，大約有4,200輛公共汽車在運營，每天可提供超過300萬次的乘車服務！

當前有16個巴士總站和22個公交車站在使用。公交交換站是一種與其他運輸方式（例如地鐵）相連的設施。

當前，並不是所有的公共汽車都可以坐輪椅。輪椅無障礙巴士（WAB）將在前擋風玻璃上貼花。 WAB在後出口門附近配備了手動坡道。

駕駛員將部署坡道，並確保將乘客安全地固定在機上，並協助支付車費。當乘客希望下車時，他們按鈴以提醒駕駛員，然後駕駛員將協助他們下車。

陸路運輸管理局（LTA）提供了具有多種運輸功能的非常有用的應用程序。

有用的提示！

如果您要登上公共汽車，則必須在公共汽車站附近將其標記下來。如果要下車，則需要按一下鈴鐺，以表明您打算在下一個巴士站下車。

新加坡鼓勵人們體諒和禮貌。請為老年人，殘疾人或帶小孩旅行的人提供座位。

巴士上禁止吸煙，飲食，喝水，寵物和榴蓮（一種有強烈氣味的熱帶水果！）。

新加坡出租車服務

Since most people in Singapore do not own private motor vehicles taxicabs are a very popular and convenient mode of transport. There are currently 6 taxicab companies and 141 independent taxi operators in Singapore. This translates to over 28,000 taxis on the island!

Taxis may be flagged down along any public road at any time except along main roads in the CBD. There are many taxi stands in the CBD area from which a taxi booking service may me called. Each taxi stand is denoted by a unique location code to facilitate easy pick ups.

One of the easiest ways to book a taxi is by using the mobile App of your preferred taxi company. You will be given an approximate time of arrival of your taxi when you make the booking and an alert will also be sent to your phone when the taxi is close to the pick up point.

All taxi trips will be metered, so no haggling about the fare is required! Fares can vary depending on the time of day. Peak time rides will cost more!
