Transport companies to handle own lost and found
items
The Land and Transport Authority will no longer be handling lost
and found items retrieved from public transport companies in
January next year.
Instead, the various bus, taxi and train operators will be directly
handling all reports on lost and found properties made by their
customers.
The LTA says the move will help the transport companies be more
responsive to their customers' needs.
If the owners cannot be traced or the found items not claimed
within three months, the transport companies may dispose the items
via public auctions or the items may be donated to charity.
Passengers are advised to report any incident of lost and found
items to the relevant transport companies.
