[SINGAPORE] More money will be given to help workplaces build facilities such as showers and changing rooms to encourage people to walk, run or cycle to work, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said yesterday. Read more at The Business Times.

The new grant is an extension of the previous policy to more buildings. For example, light and general industrial developments can now apply for the grant, while the previous benefit was restricted to offices.

"What that means is you can walk to the MRT station and then maybe at the other end you could cycle. We accept it's going to be a mix of public transport and active mobility," he said. He was in Punggol to join Active Mobility Patrol teams in their patrol, which seek to ensure that users of shared paths abide by the rules.Developments already undergoing simple retrofitting works can also apply for LTA's co-funding retroactively.
