SINGAPORE – A cycling lane in Seletar will become more than double its length by the first quarter of 2027, with construction work slated to begin in November.

The Sunday Cycling Lane – which now is 4.6km-long – will extend to include Seletar Aerospace Drive and Punggol Barat Drive, said the Land Transport Auhority (LTA) in a statement on Oct 28.

Once completed, it will stretch for 11.2km and offer cyclists a “longer and more continuous route”, LTA added.

Trials for a dedicated on-road cycling lane first began on Oct 16, 2022. The lane is open on Sunday mornings between 5am and 11am. During those hours, only buses and cyclists are allowed in the lane, and there is no limit on group size for cyclists.

LTA said the aim was to assess the feasibility of providing dedicated road space for large groups of cyclists during times when traffic is low.

The Sunday Cycling Lane initiative was made permanent in April 2023. LTA said it has been well utilised since its implementation, with traffic conditions and bus operations also remaining smooth.

The extended cycling route will make use of the current design and operating guidelines of the existing lane, in which solid blue lane markings are used to mark out where cyclists should ride.

However, dotted blue lane markings, as well as red “transverse markings” will be used near junctions and entrances to buildings. Transverse markings help regulate, guide or warn drivers at intersections and crossings.

LTA said motorists can still make turns at the spots where the cycling lane is operational on Sundays, but they will need to be cautious because cyclists and buses might be using the lane.

It said: “Cyclists are reminded to stay within the cycling lane and obey traffic signals.

“During non-operational hours of the Sunday Cycling Lane, cyclists are strongly reminded to comply with prevailing cycling regulations, including the group size requirements and traffic rules.”

The only other dedicated on-road cycling lane in Singapore is the 10km-long lane in Tanah Merah Coast Road.

新加坡——到 2027 年第一季度，实里达的一条自行车道长度将增加一倍以上，施工计划于 11 月开始。

陆路交通管理局 (LTA) 在 10 月 28 日的一份声明中表示，目前长 4.6 公里的周日自行车道将延伸至实里达航空园大道和榜鹅西大道。

陆路交通管理局补充说，建成后，这条道路将长达 11.2 公里，为骑行者提供“更长、更连续的路线”。

专用公路自行车道的试验于 2022 年 10 月 16 日首次开始。该车道在周日上午 5 点至 11 点开放。在此期间，该车道只允许公共汽车和自行车通行，并且对骑自行车的团体人数没有限制。

陆路交通管理局表示，此举旨在评估在交通流量较低时为大量骑行者提供专用道路空间的可行性。

2023年4月，周日自行车道计划正式成为永久性措施。陆路交通管理局表示，该计划自实施以来一直得到充分利用，交通状况和公交运营也保持顺畅。
