SINGAPORE : The Land Transport Authority (LTA) said
the project to revamp bus interchanges to make them user-friendly
is on schedule.
It said about 80 per cent of older bus stops are now
barrier-free.
LTA said work on the last three bus interchanges
will start before 2014.
Some features the revamped bus interchanges include lower
information counters for the wheelchair-bound, specially
constructed pathways for the visually-challenged, and ramps in
place of stairs.
LTA said renovation work on 17 bus interchanges has been
completed.
Work on Harbourfront, St Michaels and Toa Payoh bus interchanges
will be completed by 2014.
