Need to fix a flat tyre while cycling on a park connector? Help is available as a vending machine and a repair stand nearby have the items and tools necessary for repair.
Since earlier this year, vending machines dubbed BikeAid - selling items such as tyre levers, inner tubes and repair kits - have been set up at park connectors in Punggol Waterway Park, Punggol Point Park and Punggol Promenade Riverside Walk. The items cost between $8 and $50.
