According to the Land Transport Authority (LTA), personal mobility device are allowed on board trains and buses as long as they do not exceed the allowable size dimensions of 120cm by 70cm by 40cm, and do not cause any inconvenience to other commuters.

Most non-foldable bicycles do not comply with the allowable dimensions and will not be allowed for the safety and comfort of other passengers.
