Further Enforcement Measures to Protect Vulnerable Bus Commuters from Fast-Moving Cyclists Near Bus Stops

Dr Charlene Chen asked the Acting Minister for Transport (a) what further design, enforcement and behavioural measures will be implemented to protect bus commuters, especially seniors, children and persons with mobility needs, from fast-moving cyclists near bus stops; and (b) how does the Ministry assess whether current measures and enforcement sufficiently reduce near-misses, collisions and perceived safety risks when passengers are boarding or alighting.

Where possible, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) builds cycling paths behind bus stops to separate cyclists from bus commuters. The "SLOW" markings and speed regulating strips remind cyclists to slow down near bus stops.

LTA also enforces against cyclists who speed or ride recklessly, including at bus stops.
