Enforcement action taken against errant riders in Orchard area
We refer to Mr Tan Kah Heng’s letter (“Cyclists pose danger to pedestrians on Orchard Road”, 7 July 2023). We agree with Mr Tan that public safety is paramount. We have established rules on safe riding practices, including speed limits. Cyclists are required to slow down, stop and look out before riding across the road. They are also encouraged to dismount and push their devices in crowded areas. The Code of Conduct for Users on Public Paths, published on LTA’s website, emphasises that device users should give way to pedestrians. For more details, please refer to the attached reply.
