Reasons for Lack of Lift Installation Plans for Pedestrian Overhead Bridge Near Block 301D Anchorvale Road

12 January 2026

Written Reply to Parliamentary Question

Assoc Prof Jamus Jerome Lim asked the Acting Minister for Transport

a.          whether the relative density of seniors living in a nearby precinct, rather than at the town level, is considered when prioritising lift installations for pedestrian overhead bridges; and

b.          whether such considerations were applied in the decision to not retrofit the pedestrian overhead bridge near Block 301D Anchorvale Road with an elevator.

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow:

1.          The Land Transport Authority (LTA) considers the number of seniors living in the vicinity when prioritising the retrofitting of lifts at pedestrian overhead bridges. Block 301D is not at Anchorvale Road but Anchorvale Drive. The pedestrian overhead bridge near Block 301D Anchorvale Drive meets this criterion and will be retrofitted with a lift within the next few years.
