Mr Leong Mun Wai asked the Minister for Transport 

a.     whether any environmental impact study has been conducted to assess the impact of replacing yellow streetlights with white LED streetlights on wildlife, such as insects and birds; and 

b.      if not, why not. 

Reply by Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat:

1.     The street lights in Singapore are designed to comply with globally recognised International Electrotechnical Commission standards. 

2.     LED street lights are focused on required areas on the roads and allow drivers to see better at night. This is important for the safety of all road users.
