PLANNED CYCLING PATH
The consultant shall first check if there is planned cycling path abutting the development. The information can be obtained from URA SPACE following the steps below:
Check Control Plans
Click “Filters”
Activate the “Connectivity” layer
If there is a planned cycling path abutting the development, LTA may advise the developer to improve the existing side table by widening the path and implementing 2m dedicated cycling path in addition to the 1.5m footpath, including any associated cycling path marking, signage, lighting along the cycling path, as well as widen existing crossings to enhance connectivity of the cycling path network. Details of the cycling path and crossings can be found in the prevailing Standard Details of Road Elements (SDRE) - Chapter 21.
Should the surrounding cycling path network not be ready when the development is completed, LTA may advise the developer to provide a widened footpath with embedded conduits for the provision of future cycling path lighting, according to the prevailing SDRE. LTA will complete the cycling path network in due course.
For developments that have submitted a Walking and Cycling Plan (WCP) at TIA pre-scoping stage, please ensure that provisions in DC plans and WCP are consistent.
