Public Transport Operators To
Administer Lost And Found Properties |
|
|
With effect from 1 January 2007, the public
bus and taxi companies, namely, SBS Transit Ltd, SMRT Buses Ltd, Comfort
Transportation Pte Ltd, Yellow-Top Cab Pte Ltd, CityCab Pte Ltd, SMRT
Taxis Pte Ltd, Trans-Cab Services Pte Ltd, Smart Automobile Pte Ltd and
Premier Taxis Pte Ltd, will handle all properties found in their
vehicles and handle all reports on lost and found properties made by
their customers and drivers. |
|
Drivers shall deposit all property
found directly with their respective companies. |
|
At the same time, LTA shall cease to
receive properties found, or handle reports on properties lost and
found, in the said companies' vehicles. It will only handle
reports of lost and found properties in vehicles that do not
belong to the companies mentioned above. |
|
The move transfers an integral aspect
of customer service, currently under the purview of LTA, directly
within the control of the respective transport companies and
allows the companies to be more responsive to the needs of their
customers. The companies will trace and return the properties
found to the rightful owners. |
|
If the owners are not traceable, or
the properties not claimed, after three months, the companies may
dispose of such properties through a public auction or in such
other manner as may be approved by the Registrar. These other
measures may include donating the properties to charitable
organisations or donating the proceeds of any public auction to
charitable organisations. |
|
This move also makes the lost and
found procedure for properties on public buses and taxis
consistent with the procedures for lost and found properties on
the Rapid Transit Systems, whereby the respective operators handle
lost and found properties. |

Passengers are advised to report any
incident of lost and found properties to the relevant companies at
