Should cyclists be banned on the road with Park Connector?

Should cyclists be banned/fined on the road given that the Park Connector is just beside the road?

 

So many millions have been spent on Park Connectors to bring safety to cyclists and yet some still cycle on the road.

I think have to do combo, I have to use combination of both to get to my destination unless if you are talking of both of them being parallel then for sure I’ll take the park connector

Wait till you see cyclists cycling abreast on the lane on the right, beside the cycling lane along the Changi Coast Rd Cycling Lane - they are challenging those heavy vehicles.

 

There is a  dedicated cycling lane for them but they choose to cycle on the road.

Buses also don’t stick to bus lane

Gotten used to them, mostly on weekends in the early wee hours and the best part is they are also TCSS to each others ; some are so well organised that they have a last man to shout out too and come with LED lights blinking some kind of signage on his clothes to be aware; evne narrow roads like Neo Tiew Road in Kranji till Lim Chu kang also got, that one more scary some more 

 

Lol. Ya the ones ride side by side. Supposed to ride single file.

In most countries, its legal.

Cuz PCN not meant for cyclists only. There is a speed limit. So those who cycle slower usually don't mind to use PCN. But most road cyclist cruise between 30-40km/h. Not allowed on PCN.

Aiyah no different to those e scooter who anyhow ride. Too bad if Kenna mowed down. Then the usual wasting of everyone’s time to scrape them off the road and waste water to wash away their blood.

 

People who cannot be educated and take risk will only learn if they end up half dead and can no longer ride or won’t learn and end up dead. In either case, too bad.

 

When a dump truck comes and mows them all down, there is no such thing as safety in numbers.

I admit i do take the road at Changi Coast Road. Not that I wanna challenge the heavy vehicles. Never will be most cyclist intention too.

 

The bicycle lane is not designed well for road cyclists as we do abt 30km/h or more. If you notice there's 2 bus stop along the stretch. It is just too narrow for road cyclist make worse when some workers choose to sit at the kerbs while waiting for their company transport.

 

Another thing is maintenance, debris and stones are all along the cycling lane due to the wind or traffic. This is dangerous for cyclist.

No, because LTA decided to put a 10km/h speed limit on PCN and tell faster cyclists to use the road.
