58,000 oBikes removed from Singapore public spaces: LTA

The bicycles, which are designated for scrapping, are temporarily stored at holding sites.

Over 58,000 oBikes have already been removed from Singapore’s public spaces, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said.

This follows a report in August that said 40,000-50,000 oBikes have already been removed from public spaces.

“Some of the bicycles, which were removed by LTA officers are now temporarily stored at holding sites, and are being progressively removed to be scrapped,” an LTA spokesperson said.

The LTA has been working with FTI Consulting to remove oBikes from public spaces. FTI Consulting is oBike’s appointed liquidator for its Singapore exit.

FTI Consulting has also encouraged depositors to submit claims against the bikesharing platform through a website.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.
The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.
If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
