穆仁理坚称组屋区已有现成“人行道” 惟网民反映怕“天降横祸”

民主党秘书长徐顺全,发文反映武吉巴督其中一座组屋,缺乏合适的人行道;该区议员穆仁理坚称,组屋区已有可供居民使用的现成步道,包括在组屋底层的空间。 惟一些网民也表达他们的担忧,不是他们不愿使用这些“步道”,实在是过往曾发生高空抛物案件,居民担忧“天降横祸”,才宁可远离组屋楼下。要鼓励居民使用现有步道,还需要遏止高空抛物的恶行。 徐顺全是在本月6日,在脸书上发文指出,武吉巴督第190座组屋缺乏人行道,许多居民走在路旁,车辆往来十分危险。 他也在脸书上晒出照片,照片中可见,妇女手牵着一名孩子,只能冒着危险在大马路上行走,而且车子与行人的距离非常小,很可能会发生意外。 “车子与行人的距离相当近,而且还有许多行人牵着小孩,冒着危险越过马路,因为这是他们唯一经过的道路。” 他也目睹了行人只能在车子经过时,将孩子拉向身边,而车子也尽量往外挪动,避免撞倒孩子。 基于行人的安全,徐顺全也向一些居民询问,不少居民对这种现象见怪不怪,因此也希望能够希望有安全的人行道。 甚至有居民向武吉巴督人民行动党议员穆仁理申述,但却被告知若一旦开始建人行道,可能又会进一步要求,增建雨盖步道等。 徐顺全敦促穆仁理和裕廊-金文泰市镇会市镇会,应该在意外未发生前着手处理,保障居民安全。 帖文发出后,引发网友的讨论,目前已获得2千900赞和295转载。对此,议员穆仁里也做出回应。 他表示,针对武吉巴督组屋内没有设置人行道一事在网络疯传,居民看似被迫在大马路上或草地上行走,也因此收到不少网友的提醒。 穆仁里也张贴一张当地居民的邮件回应此事。信件内容指出,居民林先生已在当地居住逾30年,而且一直都有遮屏的无障碍通道。与此同时,他也晒出武吉巴督组屋的无障碍通道。…
