Singapore Post – Launching a fleet of Bigger-Capacity Three-Wheelers – ADIVA AR3
(Singapore 2014.07.08 Singapore Post)
In 2011, SingPost introduced three-wheelers as they are easier and more stable for
postmen to handle compared to the two-wheelers, and hence improve work safety.
Productivity of mail delivery is also boosted as they come with a bigger pannier box
allowing postmen to carry more items and reducing the number of return trips to the
delivery bases.
Now, delivery job is made easier, safer and smarter with the introduction of
SingPost’s second generation three-wheelers.
Minister Yaacob, at SingPost’s iftar this evening, officiated the launch of the biggercapacity
three-wheelers which come with a windscreen, a sun roof, an enlarged
pannier box, four compartment boxes and a stronger horsepower. The enlarged
pannier box and the four compartment boxes together provide 25 per cent more
storage space than the first generation three-wheelers.
Postman Kamarol Zamal B Atan, 50, who started to deliver mail since he was 20
years old, saw how the changing times have affected the mail profile.
Postman Kamarol said: “We used to deliver more letters than parcels but increasingly, we are
delivering more bulky items these days due to online shopping. The secondgeneration
three-wheeler will help me to pack more parcels and make more
deliveries at one go.”
