New season parking scheme for motorcyclists introduced
SINGAPORE — From tomorrow (Jan 1), motorcyclists will be able to purchase a Concessionary Season Parking Ticket for motorcycles (CSPT), which allows short-term parking at motorcycle lots in HDB and URA car parks island-wide for a monthly fee.
The CSPT — introduced by the Housing Development Board (HDB) and Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) — will make parking more affordable for motorcyclists, especially despatch and delivery riders who need to frequent several car parks daily during the course of their work. The scheme was first announced by National Development Minister Khaw Boon Wan during this year’s Committee of Supply debate.
At S$20 per month, CPST holders can park at all HDB and URA car parks for the whole day.
Motorcyclists with an existing HDB Season Parking Ticket (SPT) will have the option of topping up their existing ticket by S$3 or S$5,
To be eligible for the CSPT, motorcyclists must:
a) Be an HDB resident (i.e. owner, authorised occupier or approved subtenant of an HDB flat, or subtenant of room, or owner/tenant of an HDB shop with living quarters);
b) Hold a valid HDB motorcycle SPT for their HDB flat/HDB shop with living
quarters;
c) The motorcycle is Singapore-registered;
d) The motorcycle is owned by the CSPT holder, or in the case of a company-registered motorcycle, be assigned to the CSPT holder.
Each eligible motorcyclist can only hold one CSPT at a time.
To ensure that all residents’ parking needs continue to be met, CSPT holders will only be allowed to park in the white lots in HDB car parks which they are not
registered in. Due to the limited motorcycle lots in URA car parks, CSPT holders will have to share the lots with short-term users on a first-come-first-serve basis,
