Installing Cameras at Zebra Crossings in Housing Estates to Identify Vehicles that Fail to Stop for Pedestrians

Ms Joan Pereira asked the Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs whether the Ministry will consider installing cameras at zebra crossings in housing estates as an enforcement measure and to identify vehicles which fail to stop for pedestrians, endangering their safety.

Mr K Shanmugam: The Traffic Police (TP) installs enforcement cameras at speeding- and accident-prone locations along public roads, including at zebra crossings, where the terrain is assessed to be suitable. TP also works with the Land Transport Authority to implement road infrastructure, such as raised pedestrian crossings, humps and other road calming measures at suitable areas, to lower the safety risks.
