I REFER to the letter, 'Orchard zone should have parking for m-cyclists' by Mr Seah Kian Chong (Feb 26).
There are currently 4,500 motorcycle parking lots in the Central Business District (CBD). As many motor-cyclists in the CBD are on short working trips, building owners are encouraged to allow short-term parking for motorcycles in their loading and unloading bays and driveways. This makes it more convenient for motorcyclists and reduces potential obstruction to traffic and pedestrians.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is working with various building owners to facilitate this outcome. The LTA is also studying the need for mandatory provision of motorcycle parking spaces in new building developments.
