The cycling community welcomed the planned expansion of Singapore's cycling paths, though some said more could be done to make paths here safer for all.

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced yesterday that more than 40km of cycling paths will be added to five towns - Woodlands, Choa Chu Kang, Toa Payoh, Geylang and Queenstown - as part of efforts to expand Singapore's cycling network and bring the country closer to a car-lite future.
