Hi Rene, there are several layers in this map. Each layer represents a type of route. The routes are colored differently in each layer. Green for PCN, Red for On Road, Brow for Cycling Track etc. If you want to show only the layer, you can click on the icon on top left side of the map and uncheck all but the ones you want to see them. By the way, Black lines are for those paths under repair thus not accessible.
Hi Jonathan, pls see picture at https://vgy.me/tl3L6b.jpg The overhead bridge has been replaced with one with ramps so there is no longer a need to 'carry across the bridge'. Also the PCN for that stretch has been re-routed. Pls see https://vgy.me/kmc1CT.jpg Tks for effort in updating the map. It has been very helpful. Cheers.
Hi - great map! Couple of updates: 1) The Tampines Park Connector opposite Tampines Eco Green is under maintenance. There's a simple and minor diversion. 2) The Nan Da bike shop at 129 Joo Chiat Place is no longer there. Thanks for the map!
Hi 情梦幻想曲, Coast to Coast Trail is a hiking trail. It is not marked as a PCN or Cycling track. Therefore it is not displayed in this map. However, I did nark those sections as PCN where it is actually marked as PCN. AMK section is already a PCN thus is already in the map. Sin Ming area is still foot path therefore is not marked. If you know any PCN or cycling path not shown in the map, please do specify them so that I could add them in the map.
Should you want to cycle on Coast to Coast, I have another map showing the route. Please remember it is not designated for cycling as a number of sections are actually foot paths. https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1iBt7m_CZATkNbQAWLTG62wsG6KFmCSEO&ll=1.372803564254566%2C103.81867131683975&z=13
Hi Jonathan , thanks for the amazing map! It has been extremely useful to me.
Here are some corrections and updates: - There is a new PCN from Bedok Reservoir Carpark B to UWC Sea (east side of Tampines Ave 10). Strangely this PCN is not shown in any of LTA's maps, but it's there - There is a new PCN from Tampines Street 11 to Tampines Street 32 (southeast side of Tampines Ave 2) - Cycling path from Tampines Ave 5 to Tampines MRT (Via Tampines Ave 4) actually is in the south side of Tampines Ave 4, not the north side - PCN from New Upper Changi Rd to Bedok Town Park (via Bedok North Ave 1) is actually in the west side of Bedok North Ave 1, not the east side - There is a cycling path from Tampines Ave 9 to Tampines River (next to Tampines Eco Green) via Tampines Street 43, and the PCN between this point at Tampines River and TPE is open (the other side is still under construction)
Edson, thanks for your valuable input. Added/Modified the paths. Your last point is not very clear as Street 43 does not ends at the river. From Google satellite, there is a foot path towards the river but there is a Playground in front of Street 43. I take it as the foot path becomes cycling path.
If you are referring to the new Coast to Coast route, it is not a cycling path. As such, it is not cycle friendly. It is not surprising that there is no ram on the bridge. Maybe some years later they will convert it into a full PCN with rams on the bridge.
Lornie Highway is not for cycling on road as it is a highway. According to netizens, there is a footpath. Cyclist can go on footpaths. I have yet to explore this foot path thus has not mapped it. Since you seems to have done it, perhaps you could describe how you did it and I can plot it on the map.
There is no no continuous footpath alongside Lornie Highway. Currently the best way to get across is to follow the footpath and cross Andrew Road, then get on the road and keep right in the direction of Lornie Highway. Right before merging onto Lornie Highway push the bike up the kerb and there's a footpath all the way to Kheam Hock Road for the PCN to Bukit Timah Road.
In addition, cycling on the road is even more dangerous than before the highway is basically straight all the way and motorists are basically all going at 80-90km/h. The PCN along Macritchie is also quite difficult to use unless you're ready to push your bike up the bridge
Thank you. It is not very safe to cross the road and ride on the right side. I will have to skip it. Sine it is a short on road path, it cannot go on the "on road" layer of the map too. I guess it is still better to go on the old Lornie PCN way. Hopefully they will include a ram in future.
I found yesterday a clearly marked and non-shared cycling path that starts at Jln Daud x Lengkong Tiga (near KembanganMRT, where there is a PCN at the canal) and makes half a circle around the HDB blocks, i.e. goes to Jln Daud x Lor Melayu, and then to Lor Melayu x Lengkong Tiga.
Hi Jonathan, the side is correct but: - It's a cycling path, not a PCN - It does not form a full circle because it doesn't have a link in the south between Lor Melayu back to the canal
Moved it to Cycling path and ends at junction Lor Melayu x Lengkong Tiga. From Google Maps, I though there is a marked path right across Lengkong Tiga going across Blk 111 and its has a marking on the floor but from Lor Melayu end it looks like ordinary foot path.
Went yesterday to Tampines North, a whole new bunch of cycling paths (not PCNs) there: - The cycling path from Tampines Ave 6 (marked in the map) has been extended and goes all the way to Tampines Street 62 U/C (following Tampines Ave 11), changes to other side of the road, and then goes all the way to Tampines Ave 10 (passing in front of Reebonz and JTC Space @ Tampines North) - The Tampines Greenleaf HDB block at Tampines Ave 6 is now entirely surrounded by cycling paths - There is a cycling path at the entire south side of Tampines Street 61 (including the portion east of Tampines Ave 11 that currently ends at nowhere) - At the "unnamed road" (according to Google Map) at the west end of Tampines Street 61, there is a cycling path in the east side of the road, linking Tampines Ave 11 to Tampines Ave 9
I would say Tampines North is a quite nice area for leisure cycling, full of contemporary-looking and well-landscaped new HDBs, and bright red cycling paths.
Another minor update: in the Bedok Canal (i.e. the canal between Tanah Merah and Expo), the PCN is running on both sides of the canal between Bedok North Ave 4 and Upper Changi Road E.
Thank you. Updated. Any idea whether the construction after Upper Change Road E to the South is completed. The East side of the carnal is also under construction at the same time in the same sector. They are said to be complete end 1Q 2019.
Hi, just an update on the long-delayed Kallang River project between Bishan and Braddell Road.
I called the contractor (via PUB) recently and they told me the new completion date is now Sep 2019. They also mentioned that the section between Bishan Park and Kuo Chuan has now opened up. I can confirm that as I went recently.
Just an update, the construction works on the PCN next to bishan depot is abt 80% done and hoardings has been removed.
The other 20% would be the connection to the overhead bridge at braddell road area.
FYI the section of cycling path along the PCN that is directly behind bishan stadium is very bumpy for some odd reason. like they didnt flatten it properly
You can download the map as kml. First click the link at the bottom of the blog. at ht map, click on the square thing (view larger map) on the top right hand corner. From there you cn click on the three vertical dot icon and select "Download KML".
This map is very useful and accurate! I have been using it to plan every single one of my trips so far. Just wanted to let you know of a few inaccuracies in the map:
- The PCN between Rower's Bay and the Piccadilly / Seletar Aerospace Dr junction has been completed and is now known as 'Seletar West PC'. The PC first crosses Yishun Ave 1 and Seletar West Link, before following the west side of W Camp Rd, crossing to the north side of Seletar Aerospace Dr, going through the Heritage Trees along the way, before terminating near Piccadilly.
- The PCN on the bridge along PIE / Adam Rd is known as 'Adam PC' and continues down Adam Rd all the way to Adam Rd Food Centre instead of terminating at Camden Park as shown.
- The PCN along the Sembawang River is known as 'Sembawang PC' not 'Canberra-Sembawang PC'. The latter is the PCN along Sembawang Rd leading to Sembawang Park. The PCN labelled as 'Not sure the name' is part of Canberra-Sembawang PC while the tiny bit leading to Simpang Kiri currently shown as part of Canberra-Sembawang PC is actually part of Simpang Kiri PC.
- Yishun PC terminates at Sembawang Rd not Canberra Rd. The stretch between Sembawang Rd and Canberra Rd is part of Canberra PC.
- The portion of 'Woodlands St 13 PC' from Woodlands Waterfront to Marsiling Rd is known as 'Marsiling PC'.
- Maybe add a note that it is not possible to access Sembawang Park by cycling along the coast from Simpang Kiri PC due to the presence of a river near Eagles Point that cannot be crossed.
- There appears to be a PCN near the Holland Plain area? I spotted the area from the Rail Corridor but I'm not sure where it leads.
- The tiny PCN along Changi Coast Walk and Tanah Merah Coast Rd, labelled as 'Line 107', doesn't exist.
These are all I can spot at the moment. If there are more I will surely let you know. You're welcome.
Hi Silverstorm, thank you for your comment. I have mostly edited the map to correct the points mentioned by you. However, I could not find enough information to edit the Adam road PC as when I last go through it, it is not available yet. Line 107 does exist. It is marked as PCN although it is much shorter than I last draw it.
Hi Jonathan firstly thank you very much for your help to create this map it's awesome ! I am very new to cycling in Singapore and from the comments it looks like I'm meant to embed the link you have provided into something so that I can access this map on my Google Maps. Unfortunately it looks like I'm technically challenged and I'm not really sure exactly how to do that would it be possible for you to provide a bit more guidance please? Many thanks in advance!
Hi Carolyn, first you need to provide the email that can access https://www.google.com/mymaps. I will share the map with you. After you received the confirmation email, just go to mymaps and click on the SHARED tab. You should be able to access this map.

Hi Jonathan, thanks for the great work. I am also very new to cycling and would like to access this map on my Google Maps. Would be grateful if you could let me know how to use this map.
Hi Jonathan, thanks for the awesome work. I am exploring a way to add this to my google map, and noted your reply to Carolyn Chan. May I know how I can share my email address with you please?
Just send your email, that is used to access Google Mymap, to me. I will share the map using your email. You will be able to find this map in your Mymap under the shared tab.
On the top left side of the map there is a icon. Click on the icon it will show the various layers. Each type of lines has a color. You can turn on and off the layers. You can see what color lines that represent the layers. Except for icon type of layer, they are basically one color line for each layer. Some layer have more than one color lines.
Hi, I found some more new PCN while cycling over the past few months since my last comment.
- Your 'Chestnut PC' is actually called 'Dairy Farm PC' and it now extends all the way to Zhenghua Nature Park via Petir Rd and Dairy Farm Rd, and also to Hillview PC along the canal. The only evidence for the name of this PC is found in a SafeEntry poster somewhere on the western half of this PC.
- The green lines of Dairy Farm Nature Park and Zhenghua Nature Park should actually connect (through the easternmost part of Dairy Farm Pass and the northernmost part of Belukar Track), since that part is officially marked as PCN on the park map. Also the MTB trail should go through the 'hump-shaped' detour instead of the direct path (refer to the park map and you will know what I mean).
- The portion of 'Bukit Batok Nature Park' along Old Jurong Rd isn't part of the park; it is part of Bukit Timah PC.
- Closures along the Rail Corridor (see the official website for details): Tanjong Pagar Railway Station to Spooner Rd: Reopening in 2025 Spooner Rd to Jln Kilang Barat: Reopening in Q1 2021 Commonwealth Dr to Buona Vista MRT: Reopening in Q1 2023 Jln Jelita to Holland Rd: Reopening in Q1 2021 King Albert Park MRT to Upp Bt Timah Truss Bridge: Reopening in Q4 2020 Upp Bt Timah Truss Bridge to Chestnut Dr: Reopening in Q2 2024 East of Sungei Kadut St 3 to Kranji MRT: Opening in Q3 2021
- The PC 'on elevated bridge' between Kheam Hock Park and Adam Rd has been extended further south to Adam Rd Food Centre. It is known as 'Adam PC'. Evidence: brown signs along the route (for the name of the PC) and yellow PCN markings on the floor (for the fact that it is a PC).
- New PCN along the west side of Upp Thomson Rd from AMK Ave 1 to Venus Dr, known as 'Upper Thomson PC'. The map of the PC was just installed near the northern end of the PC like maybe last week confirming the name of the PC.
- New PCN along the branch of Upp Thomson Rd serving Lakeview Estate. It is so new that there are no yellow markings on the floor and no maps of the area yet. The only evidence for its existence and status as part of PCN is a laminated notice with a red border along the main Upp Thomson Rd near the southern entrance, as well as the presence of black lampposts that aren't operational yet. It is likely to be part of Upper Thomson PC even though the 2 paths are disjointed at the moment.
- The part of Seletar West PC (Line 107 in your map) along Piccadilly is still under construction when I passed the area on the night of 3 Oct 2020. Parts of the route are still quite raw when I peered over the barrier and shone a light through, so I don't think it will be done any time soon. Evidence for the name of the PC is found in the numerous maps along the route and in Rower's Bay. If you want to include this portion I suggest marking it as under construction and also including the part along the southern side of TPE to Sengkang Riverside Park. And since the part under construction is on the eastern side of Seletar, I doubt it will share the same name as the existing Seletar West PC. Evidence for the construction of the part of the route along TPE can be found in Google Maps satellite view.
- There is a tiny PC known as 'Hyderabad Road PC' from Canterbury Rd to Kent Ridge Park that is missing in the map.
- Please add a slope warning to the green path in Dairy Farm Nature Park. I was taken aback by the rough terrain when I first visited the area a few months back expecting a nice PCN experience. It can be said to be the most challenging route ever that is marked as PCN.
- The path through Clementi Woods Park is extremely inaccurate. If you take the correct path, you do not need to push your bike like what you said. The 'Unknown PK' along the canal to West Coast Park is actually part of West Coast PC.
Thank you silverstorm. Have amended the route to what I can get from available sources. Some of your description is not updated as I have not been there and no other resources is available to pinpoint the route. I will mention on some of your description that I did not amend.
Rail corridor will be under construction for a long period. I will not update the construction area because it is not really a part of PCN which this map is about.
I don't have any idea on the new PC newar lakeview Estate thus leave it alone.
Line 107 is indeed under construction. Only the eastern part is usable. The description did mention that it is under construction. Added another Under Construction Sign to highlight it.
Hyderabad Road PC is mentioned by some but I just can't find any map that shows it thus is unable to update the route.
Sorry for the spam, but there are a few more things I would like to add:
- There is a PC along the southern promenade of Coney Island called 'Coney Island PC', distinct from the main path through the centre (source: official map).
- Sims Ave PC and Geylang PC are now connected, with the recent completion of PLQ. The route is as follows: Paya Lebar Link (west side), Sims Ave (north side), cross the traffic light to Paya Lebar Rd (east side), cross twice to Guillermard Rd (west side). Based on a map of the area I saw somewhere on the NParks website, I think the boundary between the two PCs is the point where you cross twice.
- East Coast Park ends at NSRCC. The portion after that is part of Coastal PC.
I went to Sim Ave PC. There is no evidence that it continued into Geylang PC. No PCN marking around the crossing. Although can still cycle to Geylang PC but the path is way too narrow and dangerous. Therefore, I reverted back to the original till further notice.
Hi Jonathan, the Alexandra Canal Linear Park is closed till Q4 2021. See NEA website https://www.nparks.gov.sg/gardens-parks-and-nature/park-connector-network/alexandra-canal-linear-park. The part that is blocked is indicated in the picture (URL: https://i.vgy.me/6Thdjz.png). I was there last night.
It is a good idea. However, There are only 9 layers available. Unable to add the parking stations. The bicycle shops was added after "unobvious paths" has been removed. There is no other layer that can be removed. Adding parking stations to other layers will make the layers confusing.
Hello again! Here with some observations from the past while.
1. There seems to be a PCN (extended south from AMK) along the C2C route along the western footpath along Marymount Road from Bishan Park to Marymount MRT station.
2. Cyclists can use the road tunnel going under Lornie Highway from the Lornie Road PCN to the Kheam Hock Road PCN.
3. I didn't notice a no cycling sign near Hub and Spoke at Changi Airport. Instead I noticed it at the end of the PCN at T2. Maybe they moved it?
4. There was a signed cycling path outside one-north MRT in front of Fusionopolis. I did not explore further though although I suspect it connects the office blocks in the area and possibly up to the Rail Corridor.
1. Yet to confirm. The last time I gone through there it is still a C2C path.
2. Cannot confirm there is a cycling path under Lornie Highway since the time of announcement of a PCN there. Looks like I need to visit the place again to confirm item 1 and 2.
3. It is on the wall of the building further up in front. Not at the path.
4. OpenStreetMap did show a short CPN across the building. Added.
Just go to your Google My Maps and choose "All" or "Shared" tab. See https://www.blogger.com/blog/page/edit/9558116/7605695692226749283 on how to use the map.
This map has been great! I can open it fine and its now the default in my Android version of Google Maps so that's great. However, I can't seem to open in using PC and plan my route over it using the normal google maps functionality... is that because you've not shared it directly and we are just accessing publically? Justin (justinchia14@gmail.com)
The map is view only. If you want to use it to plan your own route, I suggest you download it as KMZ. Import the KMZ into your own map. Delete at least one layer (I have reached the maximum layer available already) then add your own layer where you could plan your route just like any map you creted.
For the green corridor path, one small suggestion is to indicate which ones have paved path and which ones are just jungle! Also some potential entry points to the green corridor. Maybe some info from this: https://handsonbike.blogspot.com/2021/05/green-corridor-cycling-guide-april-2021.html
came here just to say thanks you for the google map. not all heroes wear capes, hero like you wear cycling helmet and spend the effort to plot a map and share it with others.
1. Singapore River (Clarke Quay MRT side) has been upgraded to PCN, with signage and demarcation. Not sure where it starts and ends, but it was newly painted outside Clarke Quay Central
2. Adam Road PCN now extends to the Dunearn Road Junction
Since very recently, AMK avenue 10 has a very small PCN section with signage and red demarcation. I have highlighted it in red here: https://prnt.sc/jRCC_BnkGluQ As for the yellow mark, the pavement has been enlarged, there is no signage yet nor demarcation, but I expect it should come soon.
Additionally, road works on AMK avenue 3 completed recently on the yellow mark here: https://prnt.sc/FPS3S8unWwVT the pavement has been enlarged, there is no signage/demarcation yet but there is most definitely a PCN coming soon here (as it was announced in the press long ago). Don't know about the rest of AMK ave 3 though.
Hello Jonathan it's me again. I've been using the Kallang park connector regularly. The area which I circled in red is definitely not PCN: https://prnt.sc/vDYOAEOnOi9I In fact, there is now signage on the road that indicate the way: for the kallang PC you can go north or south but definitely not west (it's a very narrow footpath). As for the yellow circle, I am not sure, as I didn't go all the way there. If you would like, I could provide some photos next time I go there.
Hello Jonathan, it's me again. I was riding around the Ang Mo Kio area yesterday and I noticed that there are some new cycling paths (ie. not PCN). I have marked them in red here: https://prnt.sc/p4EIfaiB5zgV (sorry, I used the red color so that they stand out on the map, but as per your own map, I believe the color should be brown). There is a section of the cycling path still under construction/road works, indicated with the red dots. The straight red lines are the completed sections of the cycling paths. I have taken photos at various locations.
1) at AMK avenue 4 and 5 intersection: https://share.icloud.com/photos/0df2BpkCrbAXuuney8UxTfsIA 2) same location but on the other side of the road: https://share.icloud.com/photos/01cA7yX9Rx8K_S5LD8-vMH9UA 3) at Yio Chu Kang Rd and Upper Thomson Rd intersection, where the cycling path ends: https://share.icloud.com/photos/070oohzNXGAAvqzDY191OWyPw
These cycling paths are quite enjoyable to ride, quite green and under beautiful trees. It's a pleasure to ride there. Especially now that it connects to the Upper thomson areas.
Hello Jonathan, I have a few updates to the map to suggest, I put them all in a document with maps and photos. You can find them in this google doc here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EL-r6iAAMtgOG77ofxx6a8eYL2qiOAF2/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=107608547234559219352&rtpof=true&sd=true Please feel free to ask if you need any more details.
Hi Jonathan, I found out a small deviation of the route at Sentosa island, which should be artillery ave connected to artillery ave. S. But in your route it is not. Hope we can make it better together.
In order to plan a route, you must download New PCN on bikes (on s desktop browser), create a new map your own My Maps, import the downloaded map then delete one layer that you do not need. Create a new layer and you can plan your own route.
On your handphone open Google Maps and find "Saved" icon then click on it. Scroll down to find "maps" and click on it, select your newly created my map. It will work like normal google maps but with a layout of your my maps. Unfortunately, there is no point to point navigation facility available. Its just a plain map.
Hello, as of today's update this map is no longer viewable on the Google Maps Android app due to having too many layers. Can I suggest to maintain a lightweight variant of the map (maybe with only the lines and such) on the side?
The overhead bridge over ECP and pedestrain bridge over Siglap Canal near Block 1/2/3 of Marine Parade seems to be no longer part of the Siglap PCN, however there are still PCN signposts on both ends of the overhead bridge. The yellow "PCN" words originally on the canal bridge has already been covered up, and the pedestrian priority red lines do not cover both bridges. (The path between East Coast Park C4 Fitness Corner to the overhead bridge has the red lines)
Photos are here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/yuLVDuwg72mP1d559
This may be due to the new cycling paths in Marine Parade that will be drawn later (https://www.lta.gov.sg/content/ltagov/en/newsroom/2023/1/news-releases/next-phase-of-islandwide-cycling-network-kicks-off.html), but in the meantime this seems to be a trap for cyclists riding PAB.
Thank you. Added as recommended. As for the Jalan Kayu stretch it is indeed a PCN. It is part of the all new Round Island Route. i rode on it a few times already. There are sign boards all along the way. Yes there are some part which is very narrow and don't seems to be a PCN.
Hi Jonathan, thank you so much. It is an honor to have my suggestions approved into the main map! Regarding Jalan Kayu, I rode there a few minutes ago, and I recorded a video along the entire stretch that I marked in red on my map. You can see my findings here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QVHlKraUiN196vbttiAerg7_C9mJt9O8/view?usp=sharing I indicated the starting point of the video as well as the finishing point on Google Maps. From my findings, on that stretch, I wasn't able to locate any segment of actual PCN - as per the common definition of PCN (4 meters wide minimum, clear PCN markings on roads, etc.). I am happy to investigate further if you should request it, as I happen to live nearby. The distinction between footpath and PCN is quite important to me as I occasionally ride PABs and PMDs. If I wasn't paying attention and was riding on that footpath with my PMDs, I would be at risk of a hefty fine (or worse in case of accident - jail). I am going to be writing to LTA to inquire why this stretch is marked as PCN on their maps, whereas I couldn't locate any proper PCN there. Either this could be an overlook, or they may have a logical explanation. Should they provide an interesting reply, I will update you.
Hi Clement, there is no marking at all along the stretch except the sign posts. You should follow the footpath all the way till the junction and cross the road before the junction instead of cross the junction then go back to the PCN. PCN are not standardised, there is actually no common definition of PCN. PCN is not managed by LTA. It is managed by NParks. You will be surprised at how many PCN did not cater fully to cyclists. Even pedestrians have a hard time finding the correct path.
I hope you are well (it's getting difficult to ride with such heath these days!) Near my home, a cycling path has been built very recently, it's a small segment around a new condo called Affinity. There is already signage, it's officially open. I have highlighted it in red on this map here: https://prnt.sc/usk1Yq2ieWAk
Additionally, in Kovan, near the MRT station, a cycling path has opened since last year. It's a very small segment. In red on this map: https://prnt.sc/Tpn71MmudYLc
I noticed a few more cycling paths popping up in Hougang, but I want to make sure to get perfectly accurate information before I report.
Thanks again for your excellent map which I use almost every day!
Hi Jonathan, I did some exploring around Ang Mo Kio and Lentor areas last week. Here are my findings, documented with photos and Google maps screenshots. Happy to help! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Bj3Ic1NWLVTcz0-1WeA0ru56GIJLWSw6MDJdnvOo65k/edit?usp=sharing
Hi Jonathan, I rode the new section of Pasir Panjang PCN yesterday. The access of that section of new PCN can be via the West Coast Park via a path behind the West Coast Dog Park towards the Harbour Drive. After a ride of about 20~30 meters on a "narrow" pavement, marked bike lanes can be seen behind the fruit/vegetable wholesale centre along the Harbour Drive connected with the Pasir Panjang Park where the new section of PCN is located. The PCN continues up to te compound of the Pasir Panjang Distripark then out to Pasir Panjang Road where the MOE Labrador Outdoor Adventure Centre is located.
Dear Jonathan, Firstly, thank you very much for your PCN Maps. Have been using it for years now and it's been very helpful. After not cycling for 7 months, we took our bikes again the last 2 weeks and we noticed a couple of new PCNs on the west side. See below link. Happy to let you know of new areas going forward if you're okay with it.
Hi Raoul, Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I am unable to confirm it with the available information I have. I did find a stretch of PCN on the north side of Mandai road and have updated it accordingly. Please do provide photos of the PCN where it showed clearly that the path exists.
The map has crossed 1 million view.
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! Can I embed this on my googlemaps?
DeleteYou can.
DeleteHow do I do it? So it's there permanently?
DeleteCheers
Supply your email that can access Google MyMaps. I will share the map with you so that you can always access it via Google MyMaps.
DeleteHi. This is a great for cyclists. What does the different route colors mean, e.g. green, blue, black?
DeleteHi Rene, there are several layers in this map. Each layer represents a type of route. The routes are colored differently in each layer. Green for PCN, Red for On Road, Brow for Cycling Track etc. If you want to show only the layer, you can click on the icon on top left side of the map and uncheck all but the ones you want to see them. By the way, Black lines are for those paths under repair thus not accessible.
DeleteHi Jonathan, pls see picture at https://vgy.me/tl3L6b.jpg The overhead bridge has been replaced with one with ramps so there is no longer a need to 'carry across the bridge'. Also the PCN for that stretch has been re-routed. Pls see https://vgy.me/kmc1CT.jpg
ReplyDeleteTks for effort in updating the map. It has been very helpful. Cheers.
great. Tks!
ReplyDeleteHi - great map! Couple of updates:
ReplyDelete1) The Tampines Park Connector opposite Tampines Eco Green is under maintenance. There's a simple and minor diversion.
2) The Nan Da bike shop at 129 Joo Chiat Place is no longer there.
Thanks for the map!
Thanks. I will update.
DeleteHi Jonathan, thank you for the hard work! There is a new coast to coast trail launched recently, but the trail at Ang Mo Kio is not updated. FYI :)
ReplyDeleteHi 情梦幻想曲, Coast to Coast Trail is a hiking trail. It is not marked as a PCN or Cycling track. Therefore it is not displayed in this map. However, I did nark those sections as PCN where it is actually marked as PCN. AMK section is already a PCN thus is already in the map. Sin Ming area is still foot path therefore is not marked. If you know any PCN or cycling path not shown in the map, please do specify them so that I could add them in the map.
DeleteShould you want to cycle on Coast to Coast, I have another map showing the route. Please remember it is not designated for cycling as a number of sections are actually foot paths. https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1iBt7m_CZATkNbQAWLTG62wsG6KFmCSEO&ll=1.372803564254566%2C103.81867131683975&z=13
DeleteHi Jonathan , thanks for the amazing map! It has been extremely useful to me.
ReplyDeleteHere are some corrections and updates:
- There is a new PCN from Bedok Reservoir Carpark B to UWC Sea (east side of Tampines Ave 10). Strangely this PCN is not shown in any of LTA's maps, but it's there
- There is a new PCN from Tampines Street 11 to Tampines Street 32 (southeast side of Tampines Ave 2)
- Cycling path from Tampines Ave 5 to Tampines MRT (Via Tampines Ave 4) actually is in the south side of Tampines Ave 4, not the north side
- PCN from New Upper Changi Rd to Bedok Town Park (via Bedok North Ave 1) is actually in the west side of Bedok North Ave 1, not the east side
- There is a cycling path from Tampines Ave 9 to Tampines River (next to Tampines Eco Green) via Tampines Street 43, and the PCN between this point at Tampines River and TPE is open (the other side is still under construction)
Edson, thanks for your valuable input. Added/Modified the paths. Your last point is not very clear as Street 43 does not ends at the river. From Google satellite, there is a foot path towards the river but there is a Playground in front of Street 43. I take it as the foot path becomes cycling path.
DeleteCan the map be updated for Lornie Road? There doesn't seem to be a passable to way to get through the new highway as the bridge has no ramp.
ReplyDeleteIf you are referring to the new Coast to Coast route, it is not a cycling path. As such, it is not cycle friendly. It is not surprising that there is no ram on the bridge. Maybe some years later they will convert it into a full PCN with rams on the bridge.
DeleteLornie Highway is not for cycling on road as it is a highway. According to netizens, there is a footpath. Cyclist can go on footpaths. I have yet to explore this foot path thus has not mapped it. Since you seems to have done it, perhaps you could describe how you did it and I can plot it on the map.
There is no no continuous footpath alongside Lornie Highway. Currently the best way to get across is to follow the footpath and cross Andrew Road, then get on the road and keep right in the direction of Lornie Highway. Right before merging onto Lornie Highway push the bike up the kerb and there's a footpath all the way to Kheam Hock Road for the PCN to Bukit Timah Road.
Deletehttps://i.imgur.com/BHH3243.png
In addition, cycling on the road is even more dangerous than before the highway is basically straight all the way and motorists are basically all going at 80-90km/h. The PCN along Macritchie is also quite difficult to use unless you're ready to push your bike up the bridge
DeleteThank you. It is not very safe to cross the road and ride on the right side. I will have to skip it. Sine it is a short on road path, it cannot go on the "on road" layer of the map too. I guess it is still better to go on the old Lornie PCN way. Hopefully they will include a ram in future.
DeleteThere's a new section of PCN that was built outside the MOM service centre that removes the need to backtrack to get to the Kolam Ayer PCN.
ReplyDeletehttps://i.imgur.com/hJXSz4a.png
Thank you. Added the PCN
DeleteSorry for the wrong link, the correct one is https://i.imgur.com/hJXSz4a.png
ReplyDeleteI found yesterday a clearly marked and non-shared cycling path that starts at Jln Daud x Lengkong Tiga (near KembanganMRT, where there is a PCN at the canal) and makes half a circle around the HDB blocks, i.e. goes to Jln Daud x Lor Melayu, and then to Lor Melayu x Lengkong Tiga.
ReplyDeleteThank you Edson, added the path. Please see if it is correctly placed (i.e whether on the correct side of the road).
DeleteHi Jonathan, the side is correct but:
Delete- It's a cycling path, not a PCN
- It does not form a full circle because it doesn't have a link in the south between Lor Melayu back to the canal
Moved it to Cycling path and ends at junction Lor Melayu x Lengkong Tiga. From Google Maps, I though there is a marked path right across Lengkong Tiga going across Blk 111 and its has a marking on the floor but from Lor Melayu end it looks like ordinary foot path.
DeleteWent yesterday to Tampines North, a whole new bunch of cycling paths (not PCNs) there:
ReplyDelete- The cycling path from Tampines Ave 6 (marked in the map) has been extended and goes all the way to Tampines Street 62 U/C (following Tampines Ave 11), changes to other side of the road, and then goes all the way to Tampines Ave 10 (passing in front of Reebonz and JTC Space @ Tampines North)
- The Tampines Greenleaf HDB block at Tampines Ave 6 is now entirely surrounded by cycling paths
- There is a cycling path at the entire south side of Tampines Street 61 (including the portion east of Tampines Ave 11 that currently ends at nowhere)
- At the "unnamed road" (according to Google Map) at the west end of Tampines Street 61, there is a cycling path in the east side of the road, linking Tampines Ave 11 to Tampines Ave 9
I would say Tampines North is a quite nice area for leisure cycling, full of contemporary-looking and well-landscaped new HDBs, and bright red cycling paths.
Edson, thanks you for your valuable feedback. Added the paths.
DeleteBTW I linked your map to the Wikivoyage Singapore page: https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Singapore#By_bicycle
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteAnother minor update: in the Bedok Canal (i.e. the canal between Tanah Merah and Expo), the PCN is running on both sides of the canal between Bedok North Ave 4 and Upper Changi Road E.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Updated. Any idea whether the construction after Upper Change Road E to the South is completed. The East side of the carnal is also under construction at the same time in the same sector. They are said to be complete end 1Q 2019.
DeleteI went there on Sat, and unfortunately, both sides of the canal after Upper Changi Road E were still fenced.
ReplyDeleteHi, just an update on the long-delayed Kallang River project between Bishan and Braddell Road.
ReplyDeleteI called the contractor (via PUB) recently and they told me the new completion date is now Sep 2019. They also mentioned that the section between Bishan Park and Kuo Chuan has now opened up. I can confirm that as I went recently.
Thank you. Edited.
DeleteThis Overhead Bridge has been removed and MRT underpass added.
ReplyDeletehttps://goo.gl/maps/tQSZgpCNuX9JHugL6
Thank you. Amended.
DeleteGood stuff bro, just found this while googling.
ReplyDeleteJust an update, the construction works on the PCN next to bishan depot is abt 80% done and hoardings has been removed.
The other 20% would be the connection to the overhead bridge at braddell road area.
FYI the section of cycling path along the PCN that is directly behind bishan stadium is very bumpy for some odd reason. like they didnt flatten it properly
Thank you. Will update when it is fully complete.
DeleteAny chance you can share the kml file? Awesome map by the way, top notch.
ReplyDeleteYou can download the map as kml. First click the link at the bottom of the blog. at ht map, click on the square thing (view larger map) on the top right hand corner. From there you cn click on the three vertical dot icon and select "Download KML".
DeleteThis map is very useful and accurate! I have been using it to plan every single one of my trips so far. Just wanted to let you know of a few inaccuracies in the map:
ReplyDelete- The PCN between Rower's Bay and the Piccadilly / Seletar Aerospace Dr junction has been completed and is now known as 'Seletar West PC'. The PC first crosses Yishun Ave 1 and Seletar West Link, before following the west side of W Camp Rd, crossing to the north side of Seletar Aerospace Dr, going through the Heritage Trees along the way, before terminating near Piccadilly.
- The PCN on the bridge along PIE / Adam Rd is known as 'Adam PC' and continues down Adam Rd all the way to Adam Rd Food Centre instead of terminating at Camden Park as shown.
- The PCN along the Sembawang River is known as 'Sembawang PC' not 'Canberra-Sembawang PC'. The latter is the PCN along Sembawang Rd leading to Sembawang Park. The PCN labelled as 'Not sure the name' is part of Canberra-Sembawang PC while the tiny bit leading to Simpang Kiri currently shown as part of Canberra-Sembawang PC is actually part of Simpang Kiri PC.
- Yishun PC terminates at Sembawang Rd not Canberra Rd. The stretch between Sembawang Rd and Canberra Rd is part of Canberra PC.
- The portion of 'Woodlands St 13 PC' from Woodlands Waterfront to Marsiling Rd is known as 'Marsiling PC'.
- Maybe add a note that it is not possible to access Sembawang Park by cycling along the coast from Simpang Kiri PC due to the presence of a river near Eagles Point that cannot be crossed.
- There appears to be a PCN near the Holland Plain area? I spotted the area from the Rail Corridor but I'm not sure where it leads.
- The tiny PCN along Changi Coast Walk and Tanah Merah Coast Rd, labelled as 'Line 107', doesn't exist.
These are all I can spot at the moment. If there are more I will surely let you know. You're welcome.
Hi Silverstorm, thank you for your comment. I have mostly edited the map to correct the points mentioned by you. However, I could not find enough information to edit the Adam road PC as when I last go through it, it is not available yet. Line 107 does exist. It is marked as PCN although it is much shorter than I last draw it.
DeleteHi, does Pasir Ris Industrial Drive 1 be also considered as 'common on road' routes?
ReplyDeleteIt can be considered as common although Drive 3 is more popular.
DeleteHello! S3 Cycle is at the wrong position. It is supposed to be in Punggol Plaza near Coral Edge LRT station. Thanks for your hard work!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Updated.
DeleteHi Sir, can you share the link that I be able to embed into my Google Map. Thanks

DeleteHi Jonathan firstly thank you very much for your help to create this map it's awesome ! I am very new to cycling in Singapore and from the comments it looks like I'm meant to embed the link you have provided into something so that I can access this map on my Google Maps. Unfortunately it looks like I'm technically challenged and I'm not really sure exactly how to do that would it be possible for you to provide a bit more guidance please? Many thanks in advance!
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn, first you need to provide the email that can access https://www.google.com/mymaps. I will share the map with you. After you received the confirmation email, just go to mymaps and click on the SHARED tab. You should be able to access this map.

ReplyDeleteHi Jonathan, thanks for the great work. I am also very new to cycling and would like to access this map on my Google Maps. Would be grateful if you could let me know how to use this map.
ReplyDeletePlease follow the procedure mentioned in my reply to Carolyn Chan.
DeleteTo use the map, you can follow the instructions in the page that is titled "New PCN on Bike How to Use" on this blog's home page.
DeleteThanks much!
ReplyDeleteHi Jonathan, thanks for the awesome work. I am exploring a way to add this to my google map, and noted your reply to Carolyn Chan. May I know how I can share my email address with you please?
ReplyDeleteJust send your email, that is used to access Google Mymap, to me. I will share the map using your email. You will be able to find this map in your Mymap under the shared tab.
DeleteHi Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteMay I know the meaning of different colors?
On the top left side of the map there is a icon. Click on the icon it will show the various layers. Each type of lines has a color. You can turn on and off the layers. You can see what color lines that represent the layers. Except for icon type of layer, they are basically one color line for each layer. Some layer have more than one color lines.
DeleteAdded East Coast Cycling Park. Google has yet to update its map on this area thus it is a bit confusing to draw a route over some structure.
ReplyDeleteHi, I found some more new PCN while cycling over the past few months since my last comment.
ReplyDelete- Your 'Chestnut PC' is actually called 'Dairy Farm PC' and it now extends all the way to Zhenghua Nature Park via Petir Rd and Dairy Farm Rd, and also to Hillview PC along the canal. The only evidence for the name of this PC is found in a SafeEntry poster somewhere on the western half of this PC.
- The green lines of Dairy Farm Nature Park and Zhenghua Nature Park should actually connect (through the easternmost part of Dairy Farm Pass and the northernmost part of Belukar Track), since that part is officially marked as PCN on the park map. Also the MTB trail should go through the 'hump-shaped' detour instead of the direct path (refer to the park map and you will know what I mean).
- The portion of 'Bukit Batok Nature Park' along Old Jurong Rd isn't part of the park; it is part of Bukit Timah PC.
- Closures along the Rail Corridor (see the official website for details):
Tanjong Pagar Railway Station to Spooner Rd: Reopening in 2025
Spooner Rd to Jln Kilang Barat: Reopening in Q1 2021
Commonwealth Dr to Buona Vista MRT: Reopening in Q1 2023
Jln Jelita to Holland Rd: Reopening in Q1 2021
King Albert Park MRT to Upp Bt Timah Truss Bridge: Reopening in Q4 2020
Upp Bt Timah Truss Bridge to Chestnut Dr: Reopening in Q2 2024
East of Sungei Kadut St 3 to Kranji MRT: Opening in Q3 2021
- The PC 'on elevated bridge' between Kheam Hock Park and Adam Rd has been extended further south to Adam Rd Food Centre. It is known as 'Adam PC'. Evidence: brown signs along the route (for the name of the PC) and yellow PCN markings on the floor (for the fact that it is a PC).
- New PCN along the west side of Upp Thomson Rd from AMK Ave 1 to Venus Dr, known as 'Upper Thomson PC'. The map of the PC was just installed near the northern end of the PC like maybe last week confirming the name of the PC.
- New PCN along the branch of Upp Thomson Rd serving Lakeview Estate. It is so new that there are no yellow markings on the floor and no maps of the area yet. The only evidence for its existence and status as part of PCN is a laminated notice with a red border along the main Upp Thomson Rd near the southern entrance, as well as the presence of black lampposts that aren't operational yet. It is likely to be part of Upper Thomson PC even though the 2 paths are disjointed at the moment.
- The part of Seletar West PC (Line 107 in your map) along Piccadilly is still under construction when I passed the area on the night of 3 Oct 2020. Parts of the route are still quite raw when I peered over the barrier and shone a light through, so I don't think it will be done any time soon. Evidence for the name of the PC is found in the numerous maps along the route and in Rower's Bay. If you want to include this portion I suggest marking it as under construction and also including the part along the southern side of TPE to Sengkang Riverside Park. And since the part under construction is on the eastern side of Seletar, I doubt it will share the same name as the existing Seletar West PC. Evidence for the construction of the part of the route along TPE can be found in Google Maps satellite view.
- There is a tiny PC known as 'Hyderabad Road PC' from Canterbury Rd to Kent Ridge Park that is missing in the map.
- Please add a slope warning to the green path in Dairy Farm Nature Park. I was taken aback by the rough terrain when I first visited the area a few months back expecting a nice PCN experience. It can be said to be the most challenging route ever that is marked as PCN.
- The path through Clementi Woods Park is extremely inaccurate. If you take the correct path, you do not need to push your bike like what you said. The 'Unknown PK' along the canal to West Coast Park is actually part of West Coast PC.
Thank you silverstorm. Have amended the route to what I can get from available sources. Some of your description is not updated as I have not been there and no other resources is available to pinpoint the route. I will mention on some of your description that I did not amend.
DeleteRail corridor will be under construction for a long period. I will not update the construction area because it is not really a part of PCN which this map is about.
I don't have any idea on the new PC newar lakeview Estate thus leave it alone.
Line 107 is indeed under construction. Only the eastern part is usable. The description did mention that it is under construction. Added another Under Construction Sign to highlight it.
Hyderabad Road PC is mentioned by some but I just can't find any map that shows it thus is unable to update the route.
Sorry for the spam, but there are a few more things I would like to add:
ReplyDelete- There is a PC along the southern promenade of Coney Island called 'Coney Island PC', distinct from the main path through the centre (source: official map).
- Sims Ave PC and Geylang PC are now connected, with the recent completion of PLQ. The route is as follows: Paya Lebar Link (west side), Sims Ave (north side), cross the traffic light to Paya Lebar Rd (east side), cross twice to Guillermard Rd (west side). Based on a map of the area I saw somewhere on the NParks website, I think the boundary between the two PCs is the point where you cross twice.
- East Coast Park ends at NSRCC. The portion after that is part of Coastal PC.
Thank you silverstorm. Your contributions to the updates is appreciated. You are always welcome to add comments.
DeleteConey Island PCN added.
Sims Ave PC - Good description. At least I can figure out how to draw the line without having to physically exploring the place.
East Coast Park PC updated.
I went to Sim Ave PC. There is no evidence that it continued into Geylang PC. No PCN marking around the crossing. Although can still cycle to Geylang PC but the path is way too narrow and dangerous. Therefore, I reverted back to the original till further notice.
DeleteHi Jonathan, the Alexandra Canal Linear Park is closed till Q4 2021. See NEA website https://www.nparks.gov.sg/gardens-parks-and-nature/park-connector-network/alexandra-canal-linear-park. The part that is blocked is indicated in the picture (URL: https://i.vgy.me/6Thdjz.png). I was there last night.
ReplyDeleteThank you Oceanblue, that is absolutely accurate indication. Done.
DeleteHi Jonathan, need your help to add me to your map, have pmed u in your messenger, thanks! -nicole
ReplyDeleteDo you think it will be a good idea to add bicycle parking spaces to the map as well?
ReplyDeleteIt is a good idea. However, There are only 9 layers available. Unable to add the parking stations. The bicycle shops was added after "unobvious paths" has been removed. There is no other layer that can be removed. Adding parking stations to other layers will make the layers confusing.
DeleteHello again! Here with some observations from the past while.
ReplyDelete1. There seems to be a PCN (extended south from AMK) along the C2C route along the western footpath along Marymount Road from Bishan Park to Marymount MRT station.
2. Cyclists can use the road tunnel going under Lornie Highway from the Lornie Road PCN to the Kheam Hock Road PCN.
3. I didn't notice a no cycling sign near Hub and Spoke at Changi Airport. Instead I noticed it at the end of the PCN at T2. Maybe they moved it?
4. There was a signed cycling path outside one-north MRT in front of Fusionopolis. I did not explore further though although I suspect it connects the office blocks in the area and possibly up to the Rail Corridor.
Thanks and keep up the good work!
Thanks @hi1307,
Delete1. Yet to confirm. The last time I gone through there it is still a C2C path.
2. Cannot confirm there is a cycling path under Lornie Highway since the time of announcement of a PCN there. Looks like I need to visit the place again to confirm item 1 and 2.
3. It is on the wall of the building further up in front. Not at the path.
4. OpenStreetMap did show a short CPN across the building. Added.
Hi Totally love this map, just wondering how one can help to update you on changes for the map?
ReplyDeleteYou can update me by posting a detailed description of the changes.
DeleteHi how do I permanently embedded this map onto my Google maps ?
ReplyDeleteYou need to provide your Google email address so that I can share the map with you.
DeleteTechieoldfox would you be able to share with me as well? Seanbmcnulty@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated.

ReplyDeleteHi are you able to share this map with me at Marcus.j.w.leong@gmail.com. thank you
ReplyDeleteShared.
DeleteCan I ask how do I view this map that you have shared with me ? Thanks for your help
DeleteJust go to your Google My Maps and choose "All" or "Shared" tab. See https://www.blogger.com/blog/page/edit/9558116/7605695692226749283 on how to use the map.
DeleteThis map has been great! I can open it fine and its now the default in my Android version of Google Maps so that's great. However, I can't seem to open in using PC and plan my route over it using the normal google maps functionality... is that because you've not shared it directly and we are just accessing publically? Justin (justinchia14@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteThe map is view only. If you want to use it to plan your own route, I suggest you download it as KMZ. Import the KMZ into your own map. Delete at least one layer (I have reached the maximum layer available already) then add your own layer where you could plan your route just like any map you creted.
DeleteThanks for advice! Ok I will go and learn about KMZ .... Still a novice here.
DeleteI cycle this route where there is a toilet and water point at 1.32612, 103.88498 which can be added it is just along the Pelton Canal PC.
ReplyDeletethank you!
DeleteFor the green corridor path, one small suggestion is to indicate which ones have paved path and which ones are just jungle! Also some potential entry points to the green corridor. Maybe some info from this: https://handsonbike.blogspot.com/2021/05/green-corridor-cycling-guide-april-2021.html
ReplyDeletecame here just to say thanks you for the google map. not all heroes wear capes, hero like you wear cycling helmet and spend the effort to plot a map and share it with others.

ReplyDelete1. Singapore River (Clarke Quay MRT side) has been upgraded to PCN, with signage and demarcation. Not sure where it starts and ends, but it was newly painted outside Clarke Quay Central
2. Adam Road PCN now extends to the Dunearn Road Junction
3. Cycling path along College Link Road (NUS)

Deletehello,
ReplyDeleteSince very recently, AMK avenue 10 has a very small PCN section with signage and red demarcation. I have highlighted it in red here: https://prnt.sc/jRCC_BnkGluQ
As for the yellow mark, the pavement has been enlarged, there is no signage yet nor demarcation, but I expect it should come soon.
Additionally, road works on AMK avenue 3 completed recently on the yellow mark here: https://prnt.sc/FPS3S8unWwVT the pavement has been enlarged, there is no signage/demarcation yet but there is most definitely a PCN coming soon here (as it was announced in the press long ago). Don't know about the rest of AMK ave 3 though.
Thank you. I have added the red highlight. As for the yellow. I need to confirm before it is added.
DeleteHello Jonathan it's me again. I've been using the Kallang park connector regularly. The area which I circled in red is definitely not PCN: https://prnt.sc/vDYOAEOnOi9I In fact, there is now signage on the road that indicate the way: for the kallang PC you can go north or south but definitely not west (it's a very narrow footpath). As for the yellow circle, I am not sure, as I didn't go all the way there. If you would like, I could provide some photos next time I go there.
ReplyDeleteYou are right. Corrected.
DeleteHello Jonathan, it's me again. I was riding around the Ang Mo Kio area yesterday and I noticed that there are some new cycling paths (ie. not PCN). I have marked them in red here: https://prnt.sc/p4EIfaiB5zgV (sorry, I used the red color so that they stand out on the map, but as per your own map, I believe the color should be brown). There is a section of the cycling path still under construction/road works, indicated with the red dots. The straight red lines are the completed sections of the cycling paths. I have taken photos at various locations.
ReplyDelete1) at AMK avenue 4 and 5 intersection: https://share.icloud.com/photos/0df2BpkCrbAXuuney8UxTfsIA
2) same location but on the other side of the road: https://share.icloud.com/photos/01cA7yX9Rx8K_S5LD8-vMH9UA
3) at Yio Chu Kang Rd and Upper Thomson Rd intersection, where the cycling path ends: https://share.icloud.com/photos/070oohzNXGAAvqzDY191OWyPw
These cycling paths are quite enjoyable to ride, quite green and under beautiful trees. It's a pleasure to ride there. Especially now that it connects to the Upper thomson areas.
Done. Can see part of the path and construction from Google map but some parts are still not clear.
DeleteHello Jonathan, I have a few updates to the map to suggest, I put them all in a document with maps and photos. You can find them in this google doc here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EL-r6iAAMtgOG77ofxx6a8eYL2qiOAF2/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=107608547234559219352&rtpof=true&sd=true Please feel free to ask if you need any more details.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. Paths on map with photo substantiation. Thank you. Please keep the docs there for future reference.
DeleteHi Jonathan, I found out a small deviation of the route at Sentosa island, which should be artillery ave connected to artillery ave. S. But in your route it is not. Hope we can make it better together.
ReplyDeleteAdded
DeleteCould you please advise how to use this map for planning and real time navigation?
ReplyDeleteThis is great. Could you please guide me how to use this map for planning and real time navigation?
ReplyDeleteIn order to plan a route, you must download New PCN on bikes (on s desktop browser), create a new map your own My Maps, import the downloaded map then delete one layer that you do not need. Create a new layer and you can plan your own route.
DeleteOn your handphone open Google Maps and find "Saved" icon then click on it. Scroll down to find "maps" and click on it, select your newly created my map. It will work like normal google maps but with a layout of your my maps. Unfortunately, there is no point to point navigation facility available. Its just a plain map.
Hello, as of today's update this map is no longer viewable on the Google Maps Android app due to having too many layers. Can I suggest to maintain a lightweight variant of the map (maybe with only the lines and such) on the side?
ReplyDeleteRemoved two layers. Now it should be able to view the 7 layers. I have been using 9 layers all the time. Guess Google limits to 7 in Android app.
DeleteHi Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteThe overhead bridge over ECP and pedestrain bridge over Siglap Canal near Block 1/2/3 of Marine Parade seems to be no longer part of the Siglap PCN, however there are still PCN signposts on both ends of the overhead bridge. The yellow "PCN" words originally on the canal bridge has already been covered up, and the pedestrian priority red lines do not cover both bridges. (The path between East Coast Park C4 Fitness Corner to the overhead bridge has the red lines)
Photos are here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/yuLVDuwg72mP1d559
This may be due to the new cycling paths in Marine Parade that will be drawn later (https://www.lta.gov.sg/content/ltagov/en/newsroom/2023/1/news-releases/next-phase-of-islandwide-cycling-network-kicks-off.html), but in the meantime this seems to be a trap for cyclists riding PAB.
We will just wait and see. Anyhow, cyclists can still go on foot path even though it is no longer a PCN.
DeleteThank you. Added as recommended. As for the Jalan Kayu stretch it is indeed a PCN. It is part of the all new Round Island Route. i rode on it a few times already. There are sign boards all along the way. Yes there are some part which is very narrow and don't seems to be a PCN.
ReplyDeleteHi Jonathan, thank you so much. It is an honor to have my suggestions approved into the main map! Regarding Jalan Kayu, I rode there a few minutes ago, and I recorded a video along the entire stretch that I marked in red on my map. You can see my findings here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QVHlKraUiN196vbttiAerg7_C9mJt9O8/view?usp=sharing I indicated the starting point of the video as well as the finishing point on Google Maps. From my findings, on that stretch, I wasn't able to locate any segment of actual PCN - as per the common definition of PCN (4 meters wide minimum, clear PCN markings on roads, etc.). I am happy to investigate further if you should request it, as I happen to live nearby. The distinction between footpath and PCN is quite important to me as I occasionally ride PABs and PMDs. If I wasn't paying attention and was riding on that footpath with my PMDs, I would be at risk of a hefty fine (or worse in case of accident - jail). I am going to be writing to LTA to inquire why this stretch is marked as PCN on their maps, whereas I couldn't locate any proper PCN there. Either this could be an overlook, or they may have a logical explanation. Should they provide an interesting reply, I will update you.
ReplyDeleteI meant to say I will contact Nparks not LTA obviously since PCN is managed under Nparks ;-) my bad
ReplyDeleteHi Clement, there is no marking at all along the stretch except the sign posts. You should follow the footpath all the way till the junction and cross the road before the junction instead of cross the junction then go back to the PCN. PCN are not standardised, there is actually no common definition of PCN. PCN is not managed by LTA. It is managed by NParks. You will be surprised at how many PCN did not cater fully to cyclists. Even pedestrians have a hard time finding the correct path.
ReplyDeleteDear Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well (it's getting difficult to ride with such heath these days!) Near my home, a cycling path has been built very recently, it's a small segment around a new condo called Affinity. There is already signage, it's officially open. I have highlighted it in red on this map here: https://prnt.sc/usk1Yq2ieWAk
Additionally, in Kovan, near the MRT station, a cycling path has opened since last year. It's a very small segment. In red on this map: https://prnt.sc/Tpn71MmudYLc
I noticed a few more cycling paths popping up in Hougang, but I want to make sure to get perfectly accurate information before I report.
Thanks again for your excellent map which I use almost every day!
Thanks. Updated.
DeleteHi Jonathan, I did some exploring around Ang Mo Kio and Lentor areas last week. Here are my findings, documented with photos and Google maps screenshots. Happy to help! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Bj3Ic1NWLVTcz0-1WeA0ru56GIJLWSw6MDJdnvOo65k/edit?usp=sharing
ReplyDeleteDone. Thanks.
DeleteHi Jonathan, I rode the new section of Pasir Panjang PCN yesterday. The access of that section of new PCN can be via the West Coast Park via a path behind the West Coast Dog Park towards the Harbour Drive. After a ride of about 20~30 meters on a "narrow" pavement, marked bike lanes can be seen behind the fruit/vegetable wholesale centre along the Harbour Drive connected with the Pasir Panjang Park where the new section of PCN is located. The PCN continues up to te compound of the Pasir Panjang Distripark then out to Pasir Panjang Road where the MOE Labrador Outdoor Adventure Centre is located.
ReplyDeleteDear Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteFirstly, thank you very much for your PCN Maps. Have been using it for years now and it's been very helpful. After not cycling for 7 months, we took our bikes again the last 2 weeks and we noticed a couple of new PCNs on the west side. See below link. Happy to let you know of new areas going forward if you're okay with it.

Hi Raoul,
DeleteThanks for the info. Unfortunately I am unable to confirm it with the available information I have. I did find a stretch of PCN on the north side of Mandai road and have updated it accordingly. Please do provide photos of the PCN where it showed clearly that the path exists.
Hi Jonathan, Understood. Will take pictures for this and other areas next time (sadly didn't for above, so can't provide now).
DeleteThank you very much.
