Alternative Sports Access Arrangements for Residents Affected by Renovations of ActiveSG Facilities and Centres

Ms Valerie Lee asked the Acting Minister for Culture, Community and Youth (a) what plans are in place to support residents affected by major renovation works at their regional or local ActiveSG facilities, particularly multi-facility sports centres; and (b) whether alternative arrangements will be provided to ensure continued access to sports and community activities.

Mr David Neo: Sport Singapore renovates its ActiveSG facilities from time to time to ensure that they are well-maintained and aligned with residents' needs.

SportSG will inform residents of any facility closures in advance via the ActiveSG website and physical notices at ActiveSG facilities. The notices will also share information on alternative nearby locations, such as ActiveSG Sport Centres, Sport-in-Precinct facilities and Dual-Use Scheme facilities.

To minimise impact on users, organised groups and class instructors are engaged early on displacement plans, such as to other ActiveSG locations. SportSG will also avoid doing renovation works in multiple nearby ActiveSG facilities at the same time.
