The National Parks Board (NParks) will look into extending a new two-hour free parking policy to carparks at various parks, reported The Straits Times. Senior Minister of State for National Development Desmond Lee, in announcing the move in Parliament, said, "This is to benefit early- morning park users, many of whom are seniors."
NParks manages 71 carparks in or near parks across Singapore. Of these, 26 charge parking fees to regulate their use and to ensure availability of carpark spaces for park users. Three are undergoing redevelopment while 42 are free.
Last September, it revised operating hours for carparks at seven parks from 24 hours to 22 hours, freeing up a slot between 6:30am and 8:30am when motorists are not charged.
The seven are Admiralty, Bedok Reservoir, Changi Beach, Choa Chu Kang, Pasir Ris, Springleaf and Dairy Farm Nature Park.
