Committee of Supply 2025 debate, Day 4: Eric Chua on safety on shared footpaths
As Singapore pivots towards active mobility in last-mile commutes, ensuring the safety of shared footpaths, especially for seniors and young ones, is crucial, said Senior Parliamentary Secretary Eric Chua in parliament on Wednesday (Mar 5). He highlighted the issue of a shared pathway in Margaret Drive which is less than the mandated 1.8 metres in width due to adjacent construction and proposed a temporary solution.
