17 Apr 2020 / Singapore
Since February 2020, the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore has issued a series of Port Marine Circulars advising the shipping community on precautionary measures to minimise the spread of COVID-19.
On 14 April 2020, Singapore’s Ministry of Health has announced additional stringent measures for COVID-19. It is now mandatory for all persons to wear a mask when leaving their home. All crew and passengers who are onboard any harbour craft are reminded to wear a mask for their entire journey.
In addition, with the implementation of the Multi-Ministry Taskforce’s elevated set of safe distancing measures on 10 Apr 2020, the MPA will require owners and operators of passenger carrying harbour craft to adopt the following additional safe distancing measures with immediate effect, until these measures are lifted as advised by MOH or MPA.
a) Review the maximum seating capacity for each harbour craft, to ensure that seats are at least one meter apart.
b) Mark out with labels or other demarcation for passengers to identify an appropriate location to sit.
c) Communicate to passengers to ensure effective implementation of these safe distancing measures.
