Residents in Tampines can now enjoy better active mobility connectivity with the addition of four kilometres of cycling paths to link them to major amenities within the town.
Located along Tampines Avenue 1, 4, 5 and 8, the new paths link residents directly from their homes and schools to key amenities such as the Tampines West MRT station, Our Tampines Hub, as well as green community spaces such as the Tampines Central Park and Tampines Green Forest Park. With the launch of these new cycling paths, the Land Transport Authority (LTA), Housing Development Board, National Parks Board, People’s Association, and Tampines Town Council have now completed 25km of cycling paths and park connectors in Tampines.
The cycling paths have a distinctive red coating to clearly distinguish them from footpaths. Safety markings to remind users to slow down and speed regulating strips have also been implemented along the new paths to remind active mobility device users to ride safely and keep a look out for other path users.
