Cyclists in Aljunied are testing out a new ramp for pushing
bicycles across overhead bridges.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has installed the system on one
bridge near the area's MRT station and park connector network, and
will monitor its effectiveness.
If successful, more of such bicycle-wheeling ramps could be
installed across Singapore, it said.
Typically, several overhead bridges in Singapore have grooved
slopes or small ramps running beside the steps. But some cyclists
complain that these are sometimes difficult to use as they are
narrow, and the bridges' railings can get in the way of the
bicycles' handlebars.
