Path markings and signs are used to demarcate cycling paths, shared paths and pedestrian-only paths. To enhance pedestrian safety, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) works with relevant agencies to implement additional measures. It also conducts education campaigns and community engagement programmes regularly to promote gracious path-sharing and safe behaviour. LTA conducts more checks at hotspots with frequent incidences of errant riding behaviour, based on feedback received. Warnings and subsequently fines were issued to those who intentionally flouted the rule. Minister of State for Transport Baey Yam Keng highlighted these measures in reply to an MP’s questions in parliament on Friday (Sep 26).
