Mr Ng Kah Ting asked the Minister for National Development whether pedestrian overhead bridges will be constructed in the vicinity of Hougang Avenue 5 and Upper Serangoon Road in view of the fast growing population of Hougang New Town.

Mr Teh Cheang Wan: Mr Speaker, Sir, the HDB plans to build two pedestrian overhead bridges in the vicinity of Hougang Avenue 5 and Upper Serangoon Road. Tenders for the first bridge will be called by the third quarter of 1985, and that for the second bridge, in early 1986.

Pending the construction of the bridges, three light-controlled pedestrian crossings have been installed.
