Transport Department held the Bus Safety Excellence Award Ceremony 2024 to commend the dedication and diligence of the unsung heroes of the franchised bus companies - bus captains, driving instructors, inspectors, regulators, depot engineers and mechanics - who strive to enhance bus safety in their daily operations.
A total of 58 employees received the Bus Safety Excellence Award in four categories, comprising 28 bus captains, six driving instructors, 12 inspectors/regulators and 12 awardees from four teams of engineers/mechanics. Each franchised bus company recommended the awardees to the TD based on their safety record performances throughout the past year. These performances need to meet the criteria set by the TD, such as no driving accidents and no driving offence records maintained by the bus captains, the provision of clear and understandable safety trainings by the driving instructors to their bus captains, and the efficient management of daily operations by the inspectors/regulators, as well as the use of creativity and technology by the teams of engineers/mechanics to enhance bus safety.
