We refer to Mr Aw Cher Wee’s letter “Drivers park, block U-turn bay” (The New Paper, 30 July 2014).

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has taken several measures to deter drivers from parking illegally at this stretch of Yishun Avenue 11.

Since mid July, we have implemented “No Stopping” signs to remind drivers not to park illegally. As illegal parking occurs especially during the evening hours, we have stepped up enforcement during these hours, especially those that obstruct motorists from making U-turns.

LTA continues to monitor this location with a view for increased enforcement action if necessary.

We would also like to advise all motorists to adhere to the parking restrictions for the safety of other road users.

We thank Mr Aw for his feedback.
