The following is issued on behalf of the Transport Advisory Committee:

     The Transport Complaints Unit (TCU) of the Transport Advisory Committee received 10 476 complaints and suggestions in the second quarter of 2025, with 177 being pure suggestions. 

     The complaints and suggestions received during the quarter were mostly related to public transport services (90 per cent), enforcement matters (7 per cent) and traffic conditions (2 per cent).

     The number of cases on public transport services increased from 9 346 in the previous quarter to 9 384 this quarter, while those on illegal parking and other enforcement matters increased from 632 to 743. The number of complaints and suggestions on traffic conditions decreased from 489 to 249 and those on road maintenance increased from 25 to 36.

     All the complaints and suggestions received by the TCU in the quarter were referred to the relevant government departments and public transport operators for follow-up action.

     During the period under review, investigations into 12 250 cases were completed. Of these, 9 854 cases (80 per cent) were found to be substantiated, five cases (less than 1 per cent) were unsubstantiated, and the remaining 2 391 cases (20 per cent) could not be pursued due to a lack of evidence. 

     For the substantiated cases, the relevant government departments and public transport operators have either taken steps to rectify the situation or are considering possible solutions to the problems identified. Among these cases, 39 drivers were summonsed by the Police.

     During the quarter, the relevant government departments and public transport operators took on board 11 suggestions made by the public to enhance public transport services and improve traffic conditions. A summary of the cases is in the Appendix.
