A YOUTH Olympic lane to facilitate timely arrival of Game participants and officials at competition venues will be introduced along selected stretches of roads from Aug 5 to 26.
Jointly set up by The Land Transport Authority (LTA) and the Singapore Youth Olympic Games Organising Committee (SYOGOC), the Youth Olympic lane is based on a give way concept.
Motorists only need to give way when they see Youth Olympic vehicles approaching, similar to what they would do when they see an emergency service vehicle. Other Olympic Games host cities have introduced Olympic lanes but their schemes were based on a dedicated lane concept for the exclusive use of Games vehicles.
The second left-most lane along designated routes of seven expressways' and 15 arterial roads will be designated as the Youth Olympic Lane. These two lanes will be clearly marked with the Olympic Rings and the words 'Give Way' in white. MORE
