Designed to reduce traffic congestion in the Central Business District (CBD), the key concept underlying the ALS was that a special supplementary licence had to be obtained at a cost if a motorist wanted to enter the CBD’s restricted zone (RZ). The ALS was the world’s first area licensing scheme when it was launched in Singapore. It was one of a series of stringent measures undertaken by the Singapore government to ease traffic congestion in the city area. Other traffic management measures introduced at that time included the Park-and-Ride scheme and car pooling. | [Area Licensing Scheme] -- Traffic congestion in the CBD -- Addressing the congestion problem -- Concept underlying the ALS -- Launch of the ALS -- Success of the ALS -- Shortcomings of the ALS -- Replacement of the ALS -- Timeline -- References. | Area Licensing Scheme--Singapore|Urban transportation policy--Singapore|City traffic--Singapore | Politics and Government {18336134}|Transportation law {18336582}|Transportation Policy {18336577}|Transportation {18336129}|Law {18486590} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia {10126}|NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

Dockyard in Kidderpore, near Calcutta, India. The Diana was sent to the Irrawaddy River in 1825 during the Anglo-Burmese War (1824–26). After the war, the Diana saw service in the Tenasserim region of Burma before being sent back to Calcutta in 1835 to be broken up. The second Diana was built by J. A. Currie & Co. at Sulkea, near Calcutta. Launched in October 1836, the new Diana arrived in Singapore on 2 March 1837. The history of the latter Diana is closely linked to its shipmaster, Captain Samuel Congalton, who was instrumental in the fight against rampant piracy in the waters off Singapore during the 1830s. | [Diana (ship)] -- Origins -- Far East service -- Encounters with pirates -- Captain Congolton -- Famous passengers -- References. | Steamboats--Singapore|Steamboats--India|Diana (Ship) | Transportation {18336129} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia {10126} | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

The trishaw was a popular mode of public transportation in the immediate years following the end of the Japanese Occupation (1942 to 1945) in Singapore, but started to suffer a decline in popularity from the mid-1950s onwards. By the late 1970s, trishaw riders were regarded as a dying breed with most of them primarily involved in the tourism trade. | [Trishaw] -- Background -- Description -- Variant names -- Trishaw riders -- Developments within the trishaw industry -- The trishaw as tourist attraction -- References -- Further resources. | Rickshaws--Singapore|Pedicabs--Singapore | Transportation {18336129}|Heritage and Culture {18336130} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.

They served a variety of purposes such as travelling and transportation of goods. From 1867 onwards, such carts were slowly phased out with rising levels of traffic and the advent of mechanised transport. | [Bullock carts] -- History -- Description -- References. | Carriages and carts--Singapore|Transportation--Singapore | Transportation {18336129}|Trade and industry {18486530} | eng | NLB Collections>>Singapore Collection>>Singapore Infopedia | Article {18335714} | NA | The information on this page and any images that appear here may be used for private research and study purposes only.
