SINGAPORE: Over 20 foreign workers have been issued warnings for breaking the cycling by-laws of the Tampines estate where pedestrians and cyclists share pathways, since they were implemented in March this year, according to North East CDC.

The number represents about 20 per cent of the 105 people who were issued warnings in the estate.

Last year, foreign workers made up one third of cyclist fatalities in Singapore.

To help educate them cycle safely, a safe cycling clinic will be conducted at a foreign worker dormitory in Tampines Friday to Saturday.

The North East CDC is working with the dormitory manager, Averic Capital Management on the initiative, which will involve some 500 foreign workers.

Two bicycle shops have also been roped in for the scheme.

They'll provide discounts vouchers to foreign workers who have participated in the clinic to purchase safe cycling gear.
