On Wednesday (August 14) of the Land Transportation Administration, from the fourth quarter of this year, sidewalks connected to the bicycle lanes will be changed to "pedestrian lanes".In order to better protect pedestrians' safety, especially elderly and children.Non -electric personal mobility tools include Kickscooter and Skateboard.

Officials will only start law enforcement from July 1 next year, allowing the public to adapt to new rules for a while.At that time, the bicycle knight and non -electric personal travel tool users will be illegal if they ride on pedestrians.Cases can be fined up to 2,000 yuan, or three months in jail, or both.

With the rapid aging of the population, new town traffic conditions have occurred in various towns (especially old town). One obvious phenomenon is that more and more active commuters are used.With various mobility tools, especially electric tools, it can encourage more elderly people to travel, but during the peak hours, the phenomenon of pedestrians and travel tool users often occur.occur.Therefore, it is necessary to introduce new rules in a timely manner, and it is particularly necessary in the bustling towns and housing neighbors.

Various mobility tools including bicycles have increased, and it should have a certain relationship with official encouragement of green travel in recent years.This is the so -called "walking ride" concept. I hope people will reduce the use of cars, and complete the first mile (out) and the last mile (home) with walking and travel tools, and the rest take public transportation.

With the implementation and promotion of the concept of riding and riding, the Land Transport Bureau also proposed the concept of "Anxing Street" last year, which will mainly be in some people, such as the implementation of the streets close to transportation and main facilities, including the establishment of age to set up age old ageSafety areas, campuses, and transit priority corridor and lane reconstruction plans to make the neighbors more inclusive and conducive to riding and traveling methods.The official is expected to be tried on five neighbors including Hongmao Bridge, Wugosibu West, Tanni, Dama Kiln and the West Coast next year.

Although the data from the Land Communications Bureau shows that the accidents have occurred on the sidewalk in recent years and involved in active commuting tools have decreased.EssenceMany of the minor accidents usually do not report the case.

Minister of Transport Xu Fangda said that the delineation of pedestrian lanes is not because the road becomes more dangerous, but that Singapore has built more bicycle lanes connected to the sidewalk, and there is enough space to distinguish between pedestrians and bicycle knights.But the land is limited after all, and many sidewalks are only shared.At present, there are more than 600 kilometers of pedal lanes and parks.Among the laid laid lanes that have been laid, more than 200 kilometers are connected to the sidewalks. The two are clearly distinguished. In addition to improving safety, they can also reduce unnecessary disputes.

Some people point out that while the bicycles and non -electric personal travel tools are strictly prohibited to use the sidewalks, it is reasonable that pedestrians should also be prohibited from abuse of bicycle lanes.This is unreasonable, but I believe that most pedestrians will avoid running a bicycle lane for their own safety reasons.Parents who carry children travel will naturally be more careful to restrain their children's behavior.

Singapore's land is limited, and a lot of land has occupied a lot of land. However, in order to encourage people to use public transportation, it is still set to add a bicycle lane to the target of 1,300 kilometers in 2030.The sidewalks connected to the bicycle lane will be at least doubled from now.In any case, in a dense construction environment, it is impossible to build a channel and separate channels everywhere.In this case, it is necessary to ensure road safety, set rules, provide safety facilities, and appropriate law enforcement, but the most effective and lasting approach is that users of different roads can strictly abide by the regulations and respect each other.And politeness, forming new behavioral norms.In a densely populated city and town, everyone should become a civilized road user.
