     The Transport Complaints Unit (TCU) of the Transport Advisory Committee received 10 841 complaints and suggestions in the first quarter of 2024, with 260 being pure suggestions.
      
     The complaints and suggestions received during the quarter were mostly related to public transport services (88 per cent), enforcement matters (7 per cent) and traffic conditions (4 per cent).
      
     The number of cases on public transport services increased from 9 448 in the previous quarter to 9 577 this quarter, while that on illegal parking and other enforcement matters decreased from 764 to 727. The number of complaints and suggestions on traffic conditions decreased from 529 to 447 and that on road maintenance decreased from 37 to 30.
      
     All 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 7 409 cases were completed. Of these, 6 646 cases (90 per cent) were found to be substantiated, two cases (less than 1 per cent) were unsubstantiated, and the remaining 761 cases (10 per cent) could not be pursued due to 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, 41 drivers were summonsed by 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.
