Self-driving vehicles expected to be deployed in Punggol before end 2025: Jeffrey Siow
Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow shared that autonomous vehicles (AVs) are going to be a game changer for public transportation.
In the short term, Siow said that AVs could introduce point-to-point fixed route services in HDB estates, making it more convenient for people to travel to MRT stations or places such as mosques, markets, community centres, and hawker centres.
In the long run, AVs could help alleviate manpower constraints, allowing for the introduction of services like night buses. It could also help expand the public transport network, particularly the public buses, more quickly.
Siow added that it could change the nature of driving, allowing for the hire of autonomous vehicles.
