For The Everyday Motorist:
- MyConcierge will allow you to set Notification Time Slots during peak hours on weekdays to push the latest Traffic News on accidents and slow traffic during these hectic hours on the roads. So there will be no unnecessary notification after these hours. You can also choose to be notified by the expressways you frequent during these hours.
- Heading to town? Use the Parking Guide to get the latest figures on available slots at car parks in shopping malls. So you will know which car park is full even before you reach and start planning an alternative. You can also bookmark your favourite car park on MyConcierge.
- Not sure about the operating hours and charges for ERP Gantry? All these and the current charges can all be found on ERP Rates & Gantries
- Get a bird’s eye view of the latest traffic condition on the expressways via live updates from Traffic Cameras islandwide.
- Smart Traffic will provide highlights on roads with slow traffic and also all of the above information on a map view for those who prefer to view all the information in a glance.
For Public Commuters:
- Bus Arrival Time for both SBS and SMRT buses for bus stops across the island can be found here. So check the arrival time 15 minutes before you leave home and get to there just in time to catch the bus without wasting time at the bus stop. You can also add your frequent bus service to MyConcierge for quick reference.
- Heading home late and want to catch the last train? MRT / LRT guide gives you the last & first train timings as well as train frequency during peak and off peak hours. If you are taking a Night Rider bus service, Nite Buses guide is there to show you the bus stops, operating hours, frequency and fare.
- Cannot find your way to your destination? Journey Planner will recommend useful websites like gothere.sg to aid you by recommending directions via either buses, MRT / LRTs, taxis or driving directions. For public transport, gothere.sg will also provide the cost of the fare and even include ERP & peak hour charges if you choose the taxi option.
MyTransport.SG mobile app by Land Transport Authority (LTA) manages to combine all the useful information from various localised apps to create one ultimate app that you will need to use to have a swift and efficient journey when travelling across island.
This My transport app is such a disgrace that the new version is not working at all on my later android phone. There has been so many complain and yet nothing being addressed. Feel so ashame to see our government selling a defective products yet no follow up on the defects.
