Since July 2026, the Land Transportation Authority (LTA) in Singapore has removed a total of 303 bicycles from various bicycle parking areas, including Admiralty, Tampines, Aljunied, Yishun, and Sembawang.

The authorities are committed to addressing the issue of indiscriminately parked or abandoned bicycles near key transport hubs. To assist the public, they advised utilizing the MyTransport.SG mobile app, which provides users with information about nearby parking spaces and the rules regarding the parking of shared bicycles.
The LTA emphasizes the importance of proper bicycle parking to maintain a clean and safe environment for everyone. By following proper parking etiquette, individuals contribute to the overall well-being of public spaces in the city. Such simple actions can significantly enhance the quality of life in Singapore.
