SINGAPORE - Residents in Bukit Panjang will now be able to get around more seamlessly, as nearly every street in the town has a cycling path after 8.5km of new paths were launched on Saturday.

At the launch event on Saturday morning held at Bangkit Court Multi-Purpose Hall, Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan said that residents can also access the neighbouring town of Choa Chua Kang and the Rail Corridor, which stretches from Kranji in the north to Tanjong Pagar in the south.

With the new paths, a resident living in Senja will be able to cycle to Zhenghua Nature Park in less than 10 minutes, said LTA. Accountant Tom Hoo, 33, said cycling is his main mode of transport within Bukit Panjang, which he has been living in for the last 25 years.
