Impact on Carpark Provisions with Redevelopment of Golden Shoe Complex

Mr Ang Wei Neng asked the Minister for Transport (a) what is the impact on carpark provisions in the CBD when Golden Shoe Carpark is developed into an office building; and (b) whether the Ministry is revising the carpark provision guidelines of shopping centres and office buildings inside and outside the CBD.

Mr Khaw Boon Wan: There are adequate parking lots in the vicinity of Golden Shoe Car Park, even if it is redeveloped into an office building. There are also many public transport options, with two MRT stations on three different lines and 50 bus services serving the area.

LTA will revise its requirements for the provision of car parks from time to time, in tandem with the expansion of our public transport network and in line with our car-lite strategy.
