SINGAPORE – Stopping at up to five traffic junctions just to cross a busy road intersection, pushing bicycles across long bridges and hauling them up and down overhead bridges.
The Straits Times visited the alternative routes on Friday from 8am to 10am, and observed a steady flow of recreational and delivery cyclists using them. Ms Norzamaria Zainal, 44, a member of recreational cycling group Slow Biking Singapore, said cyclists have to stop at up to five traffic lights to cross the intersection.
Mr Chan Jie Yong, 37, a member of recreational cycling group Love Cycling SG, bemoaned the many traffic junctions he has to cross at the intersection, which adds 10 to 15 minutes to his total travelling time and “breaks momentum” of cycling.
