New Arrangement for issuing Passenger Service Licence Certificate
Starting from 13 July 2020, the Transport Department will issue the Passenger Service Licence Certificate ("PSLC") (Blue) with both scheduled and non-scheduled service endorsements for non-franchised public buses.
Extension of Waiver of 12-month Passenger Service Licence & Passenger Service Licence Certificate Fee
Starting from 30 December 2022 to 29 December 2023, PSL holders of public light buses, non-franchised buses and private buses providing student service are eligible for fee wavier subject to a maximum of 12-month when granted with a PSL/PSLC which takes effect during the concession period.
Non-Franchised Public Bus
The role of NFBs is to supplement the mass carriers. The supplementary role of NFBs include:
| (a) | relieving heavy demand on the franchised bus and green minibus services primarily during the peak hours; and |
| (b) | filling gaps of passenger demand which cannot be met viably by the regular public transport services. |
Based on the above criteria, NFBs are to provide tailor-made service to specific groups of passengers. As at 31 Dec 2022, there were 6,905 registered non-franchised public buses in the territory.
In 2021, the overall utilisation rate of NFBs is about 54.6%.
