060_fine city


Singapore hosts Youth Olympic Games (YOG) during 14-26 August 2010. Besides the venues and facilities for these young athletes, the city has prepared many other things to ensure the smooth operation of the show. One particular effort which is quite interesting and has an impact on urbanscape is the YOG lane. The five-ring logo is painted directly onto the second left-most lanes of designated routes. Drivers are required to give way to YOG vehicles. They would get S$130 fine as a reminder if found failing to do so. See what else, besides traffic signages, can be painted on the road surface at post #028 – the great singapore sale.
