The Land Transport Authority (LTA) is targeting another 239 pedestrian crossings in 21 housing estates and expects the installation works to be completed in 2015.

The Green Man+ scheme gives senior citizens and pedestrians with disabilities more time to cross the road when they tap their senior citizen concession or Green Man+ cards on the card reader at the traffic light pole.

The additional crossing time can be extended up to 13 seconds, depending on the length of the crossing.

LTA said on average, most of the selected pedestrian crossings have six seconds more crossing time.
