Proposal to Regulate and Conduct Public Education to Address Safety and Public Disturbance Concerns by Active Mobility Users Near Housing Estates

Written Reply to Parliamentary Question 

Ms Lee Hui Ying asked the Acting Minister for Transport 

a.     how many complaints on loud music by active mobility users using public paths and roads were received in the past three years; and

b.      whether the Ministry will consider regulations and public education to address related safety and public disturbance concerns near housing estates.

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow: 

1.      Complaints on loud music by active mobility users on public paths and roads are not specifically tracked.

2.      The Land Transport Authority (LTA) conducts public education campaigns, community engagement programmes, and works with Active Mobility Community Ambassadors to educate users on proper path etiquette. All path users are encouraged to be considerate and gracious to others.
