Through different channels, we raise the internal and external awareness of passenger safety. A series of safety messages is broadcast on the Bus Stop Announcement System in Cantonese, English and Putonghua, reminding passengers to hold the handrail at all times. Safety stickers such as “Hold the Handrail” and “Fasten the Seatbelt” are placed in bus compartments. We also periodically share educational messages with the public through our mobile app, APP1933, and KMB’s Facebook page. Bus Captains’ Safety Talk at Bus Termini To strengthen bus captains’ awareness of safe driving, the Safety Department conducted safety talks at bus termini, sharing key safety messages and preventive measures, including the proper use of safety devices and practical driving tips. Bus captains were also encouraged to contribute their own experiences to support collective learning and safer driving practices. In 2025, Safety Department visited 48 bus termini and engaged more than 1,500 bus captains through these sessions. Safety Bus KMB promotes road and passenger safety through community engagement initiatives, including the “Safety Bus”, a single-deck bus transformed into a mobile education unit themed “Stop, Look, Listen and Give Way”. Inside the bus, motion-sensing games and virtual reality activities allow students to learn public transport etiquette, such as fastening seatbelts, holding handrails, and understanding bus blind spots. Safety Department staff also host quizzes and short talks to reinforce key safety messages. In 2025, the Safety Bus welcomed 291 students and over 1,100 members of the public during visits to various bus termini and schools. It also partnered with the Police in two road safety campaigns, serving an additional 700 visitors. Mobile Classroom Launched in 2023 by the KMB Academy and the Safety Department, the Mobile Classroom promotes road and driving safety, with a particular focus on situations where bicycles and buses share the road. More than 200 bus captains and members of the public participated in the activity, which was well received and appreciated for engaging different road users, including bus captains, cyclists, pedestrians and passengers, while reinforcing key road safety messages. “Safety Bus” visited various bus termini and schools during the year, promoting bus safety and etiquette to the public through motion-sensing games and virtual reality experiences
