In a joint release on Thursday (June 30), the Housing Development Board and Urban Redevelopment Authority said the last island-wide revision of carparking charges was done in 2002, and that over this period, the costs of building, operating and managing car parks have increased due to general inflation, as well as construction, manpower and other related maintenance costs.

"Car park charges have not kept pace with these cost increases. Therefore revisions are needed to ensure proper cost recovery," the release said.

SINGAPORE: Starting from December, it will be more expensive to park at public car parks in Singapore, with rates for short-term and season parking to rise.

 

The new rates were announced in a press release issued by Housing and Development Board (HDB) and Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) on Thursday (Jun 30).

 

For public car parks outside of the restricted zone or outside designated areas close to the restricted zone, the parking charge will be raised by S$0.10 from S$0.50 to S$0.60 per half-hour. This applies to most residential areas in Singapore.

For public car parks within the restricted zone or within designated areas close to the restricted zone, the parking charge will increase by S$0.20 from S$1 to S$1.20 per half hour.

 

Season parking rates in HDB car parks will be raised as well. Season parking for the first car will increase by S$15 for surface car parks from S$65 to S$80 per month, and S$20 for sheltered car parks from S$90 to S$110 per month.

 

For non-residents buying a season parking pass or residents getting season parking for a second and subsequent parking lot, the rate will increase by S$25 for surface car parks to S$90 per month and by S$30 for sheltered car parks to S$120 per month.

 

There will be no revision to the parking charges for motorcycles as they were revised when per-minute charging and Concessionary Season Parking Ticket for motorcycles were introduced in July 2014 and January 2015, respectively, HDB and URA said.

 

TMD!#$%^&*(#^^&*(&      From Dec 1, 2016, motorists using public car parks will have to use new coupons with the revised rates. The new coupons will be available for sale at HDB Branches/Service Centres, the URA Centre and coupon agents (e.g. all petrol stations, 7-11 outlets etc) from early October 2016.

 

Motorists can exchange their unused old parking coupons for new ones from early October 2016 onwards, by topping up the difference in value.

 

The last islandwide revision of car parking charges by HDB and URA was done 14 years ago in 2002, HDB and URA said.

“Over this period, the costs of building, operating and managing car parks have increased due to general inflation, as well as construction, manpower and other related maintenance costs. Car park charges have not kept pace with these cost increases. Therefore revisions are needed to ensure proper cost recovery,” the agencies said.
