Enhancements to the Vehicular Emissions Scheme
The current Vehicular Emissions Scheme (#VES) will be enhanced to further promote the use of cleaner energy vehicles. Starting 1 Jan 2021, owners who purchase vehicles in VES Bands A1 and A2 will receive an additional rebate of $5,000 for cars and $7,500 for taxis. Surcharges for vehicles in C1 and C2 will be increased from 1 Jul 2021.
Coupled with the Electric Vehicle Early Adoption Incentive (EEAI), owners considering new fully electric cars or taxis would now be able to enjoy rebates up to $45,000 and $57,500 respectively.

#KeepCalmAndCycleOn Planning to cycle for work or to meet friends in the Club Street area? We’ve got some wheely good news for you! 😉
🚴🏽♂️🅿️ We have recently converted 2 car park lots along this street to bicycle lots, making it more convenient for you to #MoveLite and park your bicycle in the area. With 3 MRT lines in the vicinity, you can also easily use the bicycle for your first-and-last-mile needs. 🙌🏽
This is just one of the ways in which we try to repurpose our road space for active and greener commutes. #GoGreen 🚴🏽♂️🌏
#BetterStreetsBetterLives
👀 Look out for more such initiatives coming your way! 😎

#KeepCalmAndCycleOn ✨ We just launched 14.5km of new cycling paths in Ang Mo Kio, Bishan and Toa Payoh - that’s more than three times of what they have right now! 🎉
🚴🏼🚶🏻♂️ As part of this, we created more space for walking and cycling by repurposing road spaces, and also improved bus stops and zebra crossings to enhance safety and accessibility.
🚏🚆These efforts will improve first and last mile connectivity to surrounding MRT stations. With the wider cycling network, residents will also find nearby amenities to be more easily accessible.
In the coming years, there will be even more reasons to #GoGreen and #MoveLite as we add at least another 23km of cycling paths in these towns!
#SafeRidesHappyRides Combined with our regulatory measures and public education efforts, there has been a marked improvement in path safety. We hope that these infrastructural improvements will contribute further to this.
👀 Read on to find out more about these changes we’ve made in these three towns! 😎

#KeepCalmAndCycleOn Cycling for leisure or regular commutes continues to be a popular travel mode, be it on our cycling paths or roads. In addition to growing our cycling path network, we are trying out the possibility of allocating dedicated road space for larger group cycling during low traffic periods. The trial of this concept ✨, a Sunday cycling lane at West Camp Road, was launched today. 🎉
🤝 As more of us #GoGreen and take up cycling to #MoveLite, it is important to further improve understanding between motorists and cyclists on our roads. To this end, we’ve just unveiled a new ✨ road safety handbook today, providing handy tips for both groups to safely navigate on our roads.
👀 Check out the new cycling lane, and a few on-road tips for cyclists and motorists (more to come!).

#KeepCalmAndCycleOn ✨ Move around The Central Business District (#CBD) more easily with 6km of new cycling paths!
🚴🏽♀️ The new paths will bring the cycling network in the area to 21km. Look out for more to come! 🙌🏽
🚏🅿️🚲 With the cycling paths connecting numerous MRT stations and around 4,800 public bicycle parking spaces in the area, commuters will have better first-and-last-mile connectivity and more reasons to #MoveLite. 🙋🏽♀️
🏣 What’s more, 14 developments in the area have also tapped on our Active Commute Grant (ACG) to provide end-of-trip facilities for cyclists. These include lockers, showers and changing rooms. With these improvements and our expanding islandwide cycling network, cyclists can also #GoGreen and commute entirely via their bicycles!
👀 Check out some photos from the launch this morning and the recent improvements made in the Central Area! 😎

#KeepCalmAndCycleOn 🚴🏻It is going to be even easier to cycle in the Northeast and East side!
We have just called a tender for new cycling paths in seven towns in the two regions.
🚴🏽♀️🚶🏾To be completed from 2024, the paths will improve links within each town and to nearby towns. Residents will enjoy more space for walking and cycling. These will be created through widening existing paths, adjusting facilities such as bus stops and drains, and repurposing road space if necessary.
#CyclingAhead These paths will add to the more than 530km of cycling paths today, enroute to our goal of some 1,300km by 2030. 💪🏼

#ICYMI From rail to roads, our transport infrastructure is becoming greener and more energy-efficient! #GoGreen
As part of our sustainability efforts, we have replaced more than 99% of the High Pressure Sodium (HPS) street lights under LTA to LED ones. 🌱💡
Not only are LED lights more reliable and consume less energy ⚡️, they also last 7 years longer than the HPS lights. 🙌🏽
#MoreToCome In the coming months, we will also introduce a new Remote Control Monitoring System to allow our street lights to be managed remotely, saving more time and maintenance efforts. ⏰🧑🏻🔧

#KeepCalmAndCycleOn Bicycle sharing services, which support our drive towards a car-lite society, are favoured by many for first-last mile connections today.
🚲 A variety of operators provide this service to commuters, with new entrants given a sandbox licence to operate a limited fleet of bicycles for a year. This ensures that the landscape remains open to new ideas and innovations to strengthen service standards further. 💪🏼
✨ The newest of these operators, HelloRide, has now been granted a full licence to operate bicycle sharing in Singapore! 💙🚴♂️
#HelloConvenience 👋🏼 as we continue our efforts to make it more accessible for everyone to #GoGreen and #MoveLite!
