Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 5: Tin Pei Ling on future of land transport
Technology advancement, demographic change and evolving lifestyles mean Singapore’s land transport must continue to adapt. What concrete plans is the Ministry of Transport (MOT) implementing to build a more reliable, user-centric, inclusive and safer land transport system that meets changing commuter needs? How is MOT balancing the urgent task of refreshing ageing assets while delivering new lines and capacity? How does MOT anticipate autonomous vehicle adoption to affect the medium- to long-term design of the COE system and other ownership controls? MP Tin Pei Ling raised these issues in parliament on Wednesday (Mar 4).
