Update on Implementing Red-Amber-Green Arrows at More Traffic Junctions to Reduce Use of Discretionary Right Turns

Debated in Parliament on 4 Feb 2025.

Summary written by AI (learn more)

Christopher de Souza inquired about the implementation of Red-Amber-Green arrows at an additional 200 traffic junctions and the potential to minimize discretionary right turns to enhance safety.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is focusing on implementing RAG arrows at junctions near schools, Silver Zones, and areas with a history of accidents, particularly at wider junctions with higher speed limits.
As of the end of 2024, RAG arrows have been installed at over 1,200 junctions, with site studies ongoing for the additional 200 junctions, aiming for completion by the end of 2025.

Christopher de Souza

Mr Christopher de Souza asked the Minister for Transport (a) whether an update can be provided on the plans to implement Red-Amber-Green arrows at about 200 more traffic junctions, subject to further site studies; and (b) whether such site studies can be stepped up to assess the possibility of reducing discretionary right turns to a minimum so as to reduce the risk of unforeseen accidents.

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has prioritised the implementation of Red-Amber-Green (RAG) arrows at junctions in the vicinity of schools and Silver Zones, at locations where there is a history of accidents and where the junctions are wider and have a higher posted speed.

As of end-2024, we have implemented RAG arrows at more than 1,200 junctions. Site studies are in progress for another 200 junctions and LTA expects to complete the implementation of these RAG arrows by end-2025.
