以下内容为新加坡眼根据国会英文资料翻译整理：
蔡庆威（盛港集选区议员）问交通部长:
（a）对盛港东路人行天桥（POB 60020）安装电梯的现场可行性研究是否表明安装这样的电梯在技术上是可行的？
（b）需要哪些政府机构批准此类安装？此类批准的截止日期是什么时候？
（c）电梯建设的招标和完成的预估时间表是什么？
徐芳达：根据现阶段陆路交通管理局（LTA）的电梯改造计划，陆路交通管理局将优先考虑在惠及更多年长者的地点升级人行天桥并安装电梯，包括盛港东路的这个人行天桥。
升级一个人行天桥并安装电梯需要长达22个月的时间。交通管理局需要征得新加坡建设局、国家环境局、国家公园局、公用事业局和城市重建局的批准，然后才能开始工程。
以下是英文质询内容：
Mr Chua Kheng Wee Louis asked the Minister for Transport (a) whether site feasibility studies conducted on the installation of lifts at the Pedestrian Overhead Bridge (POB 60020) along Sengkang East Drive suggest that it is technically feasible to install such lifts; (b) which other Government agencies are required to approve such an installation and what are the deadlines given for such approvals; and (c) what is the estimated timeline for the tender and completion of the construction of the lifts.
Mr Chee Hong Tat: Under the current phase of the Land Transport Authority’s (LTA’s) lift retrofitting programme, LTA will be prioritising the retrofitting of Pedestrian Overhead Bridges (POBs) with lifts at locations that will benefit a larger number of seniors, including this POB at Sengkang East Drive.
It takes up to 22 months to retrofit a POB to include lifts. LTA will need to seek approvals from agencies, such as the Building and Construction Authority, the National Environment Agency, The National Parks Board, the Public Utilities Board and the Urban Redevelopment Authority, before commencing works.
